Rap icon Eminem has entered a new phase of life after his adopted daughter Alaina Marie Scott, 31, gave birth to her first child. The multi-Grammy winner, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, is now a grandfather, though details about the newborn – including name and gender – remain private.
Alaina, whom Eminem has raised since her teenage years, shared the happy news through social media, marking a significant milestone for the famously private family. The 51-year-old rap legend has three daughters: biological daughter Hailie Jade (28), adopted daughter Alaina, and Stevie Laine (22), another niece he adopted.
The Detroit-born artist has frequently referenced his family in his music, most notably in emotional tracks like “Mockingbird” where he rapped about his devotion to his daughters. Fans have flooded social media with congratulations, with many humorously suggesting potential grandfather-themed rap names for the “Lose Yourself” hitmaker.
This birth comes just months after Eminem’s biological daughter Hailie married her longtime boyfriend Evan McClintock in an intimate Michigan ceremony. While the rap superstar hasn’t publicly commented on his new grandfather status, sources close to the family say he’s embracing this next chapter in his personal life.
The notoriously private artist has always prioritized family, even at the height of his fame. Now, as his children begin families of their own, Eminem’s legacy extends to a new generation.
