10 Facts About Eminem Daughters
With that being said though, Eminem is definitely not your typical father and family man, either. While there are plenty of celebrity children who move on to become Instagram celebrities or reality television stars, that’s not the case for Eminem and his three daughters: Hailie Jade, Whitney Scott Mathers, and Alaina Marie Mathers.
That’s because he’s a different kind of celebrity father. His family life is the most important thing for him and throughout the years he’s done a damn good job of keeping his kids grounded, despite his fame. He’s also done one hell of a job keeping them away from the spotlight, too.
There’s no denying that Eminem is one of the hardest working rappers in the business. He’s been at the top for almost two decades now and from what we can tell, he’s not going anywhere, anytime soon. That’s because he knows how to Casino Online separate his personal life from his career. He’s very organized and head-strong and knows what is appropriate and what’s not, despite his reputation if you know what we mean.
At this point, I’m sure we’ve all heard the nasty things that Eminem has said about his on-again, off-again ex, Kim Scott. It’s all in his lyrics. Those two have had a rollercoaster relationship and his fans have seen the good, the bad, and the downright ugly. But believe it or not, Eminem believes in equality. He treats everyone the same, regardless of where they come from. And that’s something he’s always taught his kids, too. And let’s not forget: he once said that he is an “equal opportunity offender,” which means if he has something to say about you, you better believe it that he will say it.
Eminem has had a very icy relationship with women. He’s done a good job of offending the female population with his antics and some of the crazy things he has said in the past. But when it comes to his immediate family, it’s a whole different story. He is very protective of his daughters and wants to give them everything he didn’t have as a child himself.
Speaking about Kim and the kids, he has said, “I just want her and my immediate family — my daughter, my niece and my little brother — to have things I didn’t have: love and material things. But I can’t just buy them things. I have to be there. That’s a cop-out if I just popped up once in a while, didn’t have custody of my daughter and my niece.”
When the girls were little, Em said, “I have full custody of my niece and joint custody of Hailie. It’s no secret what’s been going on over the past year with my ex-wife. I wouldn’t down-talk her, but with her bein’ on the run from the cops I really had no choice but to just step up to the plate. I was always there for Hailie, and my niece has been a part of my life ever since she was born. Me and Kim pretty much had her, she’d live with us wherever we was at.”
Eminem has made it no secret that he didn’t have it easy as a child. As a matter of fact, he’s often described his childhood as being awful and blames most of it on his mom. His family didn’t have money, he didn’t have a stable life and during some moments, he didn’t even have a place to call home. He’s also seen things that no children should see, but for Eminem, it was part of his daily reality. That’s why he has always been so determined to raise his daughters right and be the father that he never had himself.
He told Rolling Stone in an interview back in 2004, “Bein’ a dad is definitely living a double life. As far back as I can remember, even before Hailies was born, I was a firm believer in freedom of speech. I never wanted to compromise that, my artistic integrity, but once I hit them gates where I live, that’s when I’m Dad. Takin’ the kids to school, pickin’ ’em up, teachin’ ’em rules. I’m not sayin’ I’m the perfect father, but the most important thing is to be there for my kids and raise them the right way.”
He explained, “We’ve still gotta show each other that mutual respect. I can’t walk around the house tryin’ to mess with Hailie’s head, saying, “Your mom’s wrong.” I used to get caught up with that with my mother, as far as saying bad things about any boyfriend she had that I liked. I don’t wanna get them caught up in “Your mom’s wrong,” and then Hailie goes to see her mother, who says, “Your dad’s an asshole.” We don’t do that. It’s about raising these kids. She’s out now. And hopefully she can get her life back in order. Before anything, it’s gotta be for these kids. She knows it, I know it.”
