At his daughter Hailie Jade Scott’s wedding to Evan McClintock on May 18, Eminem enjoyed a heartfelt moment by dancing with his daughter. While Eminem’s recent public focus has been on family celebrations, his romantic history, particularly with his ex-wife Kimberly “Kim” Scott, has garnered attention.
The rapper has seldom discussed his personal relationships in interviews or social media, but his marriage to Kim Scott is well-known. Their initial meeting occurred years ago when Kim had just left a youth home after running away from her parents with her late twin sister, Dawn Scott.
The rapper’s focus has been on family, while his past relationships, especially with ex-wife Kimberly “Kim” Scott, continue to draw attention
Eminem recounted in a 2004 Rolling Stone interview that he was performing a mock dance on a coffee table when Kim appeared at the door. The couple’s daughter, Hailie, was born in December 1995, and they married on June 14, 1999. Eminem also adopted Kim’s daughter Stevie Laine and niece Alaina Marie.
Their first marriage ended after two years, though they maintained a close co-parenting relationship. They remarried on January 14, 2006, but separated again within months, finalizing their divorce by the end of the year.
Despite being linked to a few celebrities, Eminem has not had confirmed relationships other than with Kim Scott. He claimed to have dated Mariah Carey in 2001, but Carey has denied this. There were also rumors of a relationship with Tara Reid in 2004 and Kaya Jones of the Pussycat Dolls, but neither was officially confirmed.
Currently, Eminem is single. According to an exclusive report from In Touch in June 2024, he is reportedly hesitant to pursue new relationships due to lingering trust issues from his past. The source mentioned that Eminem’s friends wish he would open up to the possibility of love again, despite his reservations.
In a 2017 interview with Vulture, Eminem briefly discussed his dating life post-divorce, mentioning unsuccessful dates and his use of Tinder. He also admitted to visiting strip clubs as a means of meeting people during a challenging period in his life.
