In a podcast episode that left fans around the world speechless, Hailie Jade, daughter of rap legend Eminem and his ex-wife Kim Scott, opened up for the very first time about the current relationship between her parents — over two decades after their highly publicized divorce.
The emotional episode, released this morning on Hailie’s hit podcast “Just a Little Shady”, took an unexpected turn when she began speaking candidly about the dynamics between her mother and father — something she has remained silent about for years.
With tears in her eyes and her voice cracking, the 29-year-old influencer said:
“I’ve always wanted to protect both of them, but I feel like it’s time to be honest. People think they know, but they really don’t understand what’s been going on behind closed doors.”
“They’re Not on Speaking Terms”
According to Hailie, despite occasional reports over the years suggesting a cordial co-parenting relationship, Eminem (Marshall Mathers) and Kim Scott are no longer on speaking terms — and haven’t been for a long time.
“It’s not hatred,” she clarified. “It’s just… distance. Time and hurt created a wall, and neither of them has really tried to tear it down.”
Listeners were stunned as Hailie confessed that her parents have not seen each other in person in over six years, and all communication is handled through lawyers or intermediaries.
“It breaks my heart sometimes, because I love them both. But I’ve accepted that they’re on totally different paths now — and that they may never reconcile,” she said, wiping away tears.
The Moment That Made Her Cry
The most emotional part of the episode came when Hailie spoke about her mother’s mental health struggles and how they’ve impacted her ability to maintain a presence in Hailie’s adult life — especially now that Hailie is a mother herself.
“When my daughter was born, I hoped it would bring us all a little closer… but it didn’t.”
She paused before adding quietly:
“My mom didn’t even come to meet her.”
The heartbreaking confession left listeners stunned. Fans took to social media within minutes of the episode’s release, many expressing disbelief and sadness for the young mother and her fractured family ties.
Fans React: “We Had No Idea…”
On X (formerly Twitter), fans quickly made the podcast episode a trending topic under #HailiePodcast and #EminemKim.
“I’m crying listening to Hailie’s podcast. I had no idea things were still that broken between Em and Kim,” one user wrote.
“Hailie is so brave. It takes a lot to speak your truth when your parents are literal icons in pop culture history,” another posted.
Some long-time Eminem fans recalled his past lyrics — filled with raw emotion and rage directed at Kim — and began to reflect on the real emotional toll those public battles may have taken on their daughter.
What This Means for Eminem and Kim
While Eminem, 52, has yet to respond publicly to the podcast episode, insiders suggest he may have been aware that Hailie would discuss the topic. One unnamed family source told Detroit Insider:
“Marshall supports Hailie’s podcast and gives her space to express herself. But don’t expect him to comment directly — that’s just not who he is anymore.”
As for Kim Scott, her representatives have not issued a statement. She has remained largely out of the public eye in recent years, reportedly battling personal struggles in private.
“I Still Love Them Both”
Despite the emotional distance between her parents, Hailie ended the podcast on a hopeful note.
“I’ll never stop loving them. They gave me everything they could — in their own flawed, human ways. And now, I just want to break cycles, be the best mom I can be, and keep telling the truth.”
The raw, emotional episode marks a significant turning point in the public understanding of one of hip-hop’s most talked-about families. For fans who grew up listening to Eminem’s explosive lyrics about Kim and watched Hailie grow up from a name in a song to a voice of her own — this was a moment decades in the making.
