But while she and Evan are still snapping monthly photos to document just how quickly he's growing, "I stopped posting those," Hailie explained to podcast cohost and bestie Brittany Ednie. "Because the one day that I had missed...as soon as I didn't post the picture, I got some creepy messages being like, 'Where is the pic?' People being angry that I didn't post...So we're taking a break from all that."
"But," she added, "I'm sure in the future I'll still be sharing more and talking about all the fun things he's doing."

When it became apparent Elliot was arriving earlier than his April 4 due date, Hailie said on her podcast she was rooting for either March 13—"313, which is Detroit's day," she explained—or March 15, her late nana's birthday.
Pi Day (3/14) proved to be "the happy medium."
"As much as we're like, 'Our phones are spying us,' every time I was in need, desperately, of like a specific video to pop up, it always did," Hailie explained. "I would have a specific thought, like, 'Oh my gosh, am I a bad mom if I go work out?'"
And TikTok was always there to assure her, she recalled, "This is normal, calm down, you're OK."
Becoming a mom, Hailie said, "makes you have so much more appreciation for your parents and also just your current friends who have kids."
Not least because, while her sleeping situation was better eight months in than when she first brought Elliot home, she no longer had all that brand-new-mom adrenaline that kept the exhaustion from truly sinking in.
"Sometimes we'll get a good night, sometimes we won't," she said. "When we get a good night and then don't, I'm like, I forget how to function."
And on the Dec. 12 episode of her podcast, having taken Elliot on a plane ride to Florida ("great") and back ("not so great") for a destination wedding, Hailie shared another one of her ripped-from-experience lessons.
"Traveling with kids," she noted, "if you get stressed that there's a baby crying, the mom is a million times more stressed than you. So, please don't react out loud."
Overall, Hailie reflected, "It's been eight months of a lot of ups and downs, and learning and fun. And just a new life, and a new appreciation for things."
And as Eminem prepares to be a grandpa again, here's an explainer on the rapper's family tree: Born Kimberly Ann Scott, the Michigan native was Eminem's high school sweetheart. She welcomed their daughter Hailie Jade in 1995.
Kim was married to the rapper from 1999 to 2001, and briefly again in 2006. Their tumultuous relationship has been referenced in several of Eminem's songs, including "'97 Bonnie & Clyde," "Puke" and "Bad Husband."
"In our relationship, there's a pattern," Kim said of their on-and-off romance in a 2007 interview with 20/20. " We'll have two good years and then it will go bad for some reason. It's like a two-year max with us and we hadn't reached the two years yet. I just didn't want to rush into anything before the two years."
However, Kim noted that Eminem has always been an "excellent" father.
"He loves the kids very much," she shared. "He's always lending a helping hand."
Eminem and Kim welcomed Hailie on Dec. 25, 1995. According to music star, her birth was a "real wake-up call" to "get my a-- in gear."
"Everything that I am doing right now is for Hailie," he told Q magazine in 2001. "The money—it's for her college."
She spent most of her youth under Eminem's 15,000-square-foot roof in the Detroit suburbs, before attending Michigan State University to study psychology. There, she met her now-husband Evan McClintock, who she married in May 2024 after getting engaged the year prior.
"She's doing good," Eminem said of Hailie during a 2020 episode of Hotboxin' With Mike Tyson, adding that the influencer—who now goes by Hailie Jade—graduated from college with a 3.9 GPA. "She's made me proud for sure."
In October 2024, Hailie announced her pregnancy with her and Evan's first child. The pair welcomed a baby boy named Elliot Marshall McClintock in March 2025.
Born on Feb. 22, 1993, Alaina is the daughter of Kim's sister Dawn Scott.
She was adopted by Eminem in the early aughts due to her mother's struggles with addiction. "I have full custody of my niece and joint custody of Hailie," the 8 Mile star told Rolling Stone in 2004. "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."
Having been largely raised by Eminem, the Oakland University alum calls him "dad" and had him accompany her down the aisle when she wed Matt Moeller in June 2023.
"He wasn't going to miss that," she told People after the nuptials, during which Hailie served as a Maid of Honor. "None of this would have been possible without my dad. I'm beyond blessed."
Her mother passed away in 2016 at the age of 41.
In October 2025, she revealed that she was pregnant with her and Matt's first child, a baby girl.
Kim welcomed Stevie on April 16, 2002, with her then-boyfriend Eric Hartter. Eminem legally adopted Stevie in 2005, when he reconciled with Kim.
Stevie came out as nonbinary in August 2021, sharing in a TikTok video that they identify using "all pronouns."
They added in the caption, "forever growing and changing."
Born in 1955 at a military base in Kansas, Debbie is the mother of Eminem.
She married the "Without Me" artist's father Marshall Bruce Mathers Jr. when she was 15, according to her 2008 memoir My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem. She became pregnant with Eminem 16 months later and relocated to Michigan, where her maternal grandmother lived.
Debbie and Eminem's strained relationship has been documented in several of his songs, including his 2002 smash hit "Cleanin' Out My Closet." In the track, he alleged that Debbie abused prescription pills when he was young—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 regret in airing out his family drama. In his 2013 song "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."
Nelson died at the age of 69 in 2024 following a battle with cancer.
