The star shares Hailie with his ex-wife, Kim Scott, and he took in Kim’s twin sister Dawn’s daughter, Alaina, when Dawn was struggling with drug addiction. 

He confirmed that he had “full custody” of Alaina in 2004, and Dawn sadly died in 2016. 

Then, in 2005, Eminem legally adopted Kim’s child Stevie, who she shares with Eric Hartter. Stevie was three years old at the time of the adoption. 

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Eminem also opened up about caring for his younger brother Nate, who was taken into foster care when he was eight years old and Eminem was 23. 

“When he was taken away, I always said if I ever get in a position to take him, I would take him,” he said. “I tried to apply for full custody when I was 20, but I didn’t have the means. I couldn’t support him. I watched him when he was in the foster home. He was so confused. I mean, I cried just goin’ to see him at the foster home.”
