Eminem’s Daughter Hailie Jade Reveals How Parenthood Has Changed Her Understanding of Her Dad
Hailie Jade is getting real when it comes to reflecting on her childhood.
The 29-year-old daughter of Eminem detailed how becoming a mom to her and Evan McClintock’s son Elliot, 3 months, helped her to understand what it was like for her dad to be raising kids while in the spotlight.
“Over time, I’ve come to understand the struggle my father faced,” she told People in an interview published June 26, “wanting to protect our privacy while also feeling proud and wanting to celebrate his kids.”
The Just a Little Shady host, whose mom is Kim Scott, may not be in the public eye the way her Grammy winner father was when she was growing up, but she has worked to build her own presence as an influencer and YouTuber.
However, now that she’s a mom, she knows she needs to do what’s best for her child just as Eminem (real name Marshall Mathers) did for her and siblings Alaina Mathers, 32, and Stevie Mathers, 27.
“It’s all about finding that balance between openness and privacy,” she shared. “That balance has become even more important to me as I navigate parenthood.”
