Hailie Jade, the 29-year-old daughter of rapper Eminem, welcomed the new year with joy and excitement, sharing intimate and heartwarming photos on Instagram. The podcast host posted three pictures on December 31, celebrating the close of 2024 and the new chapter she’s about to embark on. In her post, Hailie revealed her baby bump, captioning the photos with an optimistic message: "Things are going to look so different this time next year & we can’t wait. Happy New Year everyone!! (sic)."
The photos she shared showcased her glowing pregnancy journey. Dressed in a cropped top that highlighted her baby bump, Hailie is seen posing in front of a festive Christmas tree, gently cradling her belly. One of the pictures also shows her husband, Evan McClintock, tenderly kissing her stomach, while she beams with happiness. The final image features a creative touch with a ribbon tied around her belly, reminiscent of a Christmas gift, capturing the joyous spirit of the occasion.
Hailie and Evan, who tied the knot in May 2024 after nearly eight years of dating, announced their pregnancy to the public in October. They chose a special way to share their happy news, incorporating it into Eminem’s music video for the song Temporary. In the video, Hailie hands her father a Detroit Lions jersey with the word “grandpa” printed on the back. Eminem’s surprise reaction quickly turned into joy as he held up the sonogram photos for the camera, realizing the significance of the gesture.
Later, Hailie shared more about the surprise moment during an episode of her "Just A Little Shady" podcast. She recounted how Eminem initially joked about being called old, questioning why she had given him a "grandpa" jersey. But when she showed him the ultrasound picture, he was filled with emotion as the reality of the news set in.
What makes this announcement even more special is how Hailie and Evan managed to keep the pregnancy a secret throughout their wedding. Their joy is now shared with the world, and fans have been celebrating this exciting new chapter for the couple. Hailie’s pregnancy marks the beginning of a new year filled with personal milestones, and her fans are eager to follow along on this beautiful journey.
