In the early days of his career, Eminem frequently made mention of his daughter, Hailie Jade, throughout his music. From “Hailie’s Song” to “My Dad’s Gone Crazy,” the father of three made his love for the young girl evident from the start. Though it seems like just yesterday when she was a little girl, the social media star revealed today (February 6) that she’s officially engaged to be married.
The Detroit native shared a selection of photos to Instagram earlier this afternoon. The first one finds her popping open a bottle of champagne with her beau. In the next shot, he’s down on one knee, holding a jewellery box in his hands. At the same time, Jade looks at him in obvious shock and excitement.
Image number three gives a close-up of the elegant ring. It sits on the newly engaged entertainer’s finger as she holds a glass of champagne. “Casual weekend recap… 2.4.23,” she wrote in the caption. “I love you @evanmcclintock11.”
In the post’s comment section, several fans have already been making Eminem-related jokes. “Did he pass the freestyle test tho?” someone asked Jade. “Looks like his knees were [weak],” another person joked, referencing the 8 Mile star’s “Lose Yourself” lyrics. Even with the dry humour unfolding in her replies, the social media personality looks to be happier than ever.
As TMZ notes, we know little about the couple’s relationship, aside from the fact it began in 2016. Slim Shady also appears to have given his approval. He previously briefly spoke about his daughter’s romance during a podcast interview. In the chat, the “Mockingbird” hitmaker praised his adult kid for following a good path, graduating college, and maintaining a steady relationship.
News of a wedding is certainly exciting, but that’s not the only thing Hailie has been working on as of late. In the midst of last summer, she unveiled her plans to launch the Just A Little Shady podcast, during which she reflects on life growing up with a world-famous parent, among other things.
In another episode last fall, the bride-to-be hosted a Q&A with fans during which she candidly addressed their inquiries. At one point, she took time to specifically explain whether she’s bothered by people asking questions about her celebrity dad.
