Hailie Jade, daughter of rap legend Eminem, shared exciting news about her family months after her wedding.

She announced in the latest episode of her ‘Just a Little Shady’ podcast that she is expecting a baby boy with her husband, Evan McClintock.

The couple revealed their gender in a sweet and intimate moment during a live podcast episode. In the playful gender reveal, Hailie and Evan popped a large black balloon, and out came blue confetti, indicating they were expecting a son. While the podcast moment was full of joy and laughter, Hailie did not share the baby’s due date, keeping some details private.

This thrilling news follows an equally memorable moment when Eminem learned he would become a grandfather. In his latest music video for the song ‘Temporary,’ the rapper experienced a surprise reveal from Hailie herself. The touching clip showed the father-daughter duo sitting together outdoors when Hailie handed her dad a custom Detroit Lions jersey, emblazoned with ‘Grandpa #1’ on the back. Then, in a heartwarming twist, she presented Eminem with her sonogram, capturing his complete shock and joy at the news.

The announcement quickly garnered attention from close friends and fans alike, with rapper 50 Cent being one of the first to send his congratulations. He took to Instagram to share his excitement, reminiscing about watching Hailie grow up, while humorously acknowledging how much time has flown by.

Earlier this year, 50 Cent had also opened up about attending Hailie’s wedding, an event that left him emotionally moved. The star-studded affair saw Eminem proudly walking his daughter down the aisle, with industry icons like Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine among the guests.

Reflecting on the event, 50 Cent expressed his disbelief at how quickly Hailie had grown up, saying it brought back memories of his children and his close bond with Eminem.
