Eminem’s Daughter Hailie Jade Shares Clever Way She Hid Her Pregnancy

Born in 1955 at a navy base in Kansas, Debbie is the mom of Eminem.

She married the “Without Me” artist’s father Marshall Bruce Mathers Jr. when she was 15, in keeping with her 2008 memoir My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem. She started pregnant with Eminem 16 months later and relocated to Michigan, the place her maternal grandmother lived.

Debbie and Eminem’s strained relationship has been documented in a number of of his songs, together with his 2002 smash hit “Cleanin’ Out My Closet.” In the monitor, he alleged that Debbie abused prescription capsules when he was younger—which she denied in her autobiography. 

“What mother wants to be known as a pill-popping alcoholic who lives on welfare?” she wrote. “None of it was true, but the fibs kept getting bigger, and ultimately Marshall and I became estranged.”

However, Eminem has since expressed remorse in airing out his household drama. In his 2013 tune “Headlights,” he rapped, “I went in headfirst, never thinking about who, what I said hurt / In what verse, my mom probably got it the worst.”
