Eminem is not married and does not have a wife. He also doesn’t seem to have a girlfriend. However, Eminem has been married twice to Kimberly Anne Scott, with whom he had his only biological child, Hailie Jade Scott Mathers. His first marriage lasted from 1999 to 2001, and his second began in 2006 and packed up that same year.
While it doesn’t seem like the rapper has a romantic partner at the moment, he is a father of three, and his family life revolves mostly around them. Apart from Hailie, his only biological child, he is the father of Alaina Marie Mathers and Stevie Laine Scott. The former is the biological daughter of Eminem’s ex-wife’s twin sister, the late Dwan Scott, while the latter is Hailie’s half-sister: Eminem’s ex-wife had her with Eric Hartter, who passed on in 2020 from a drug overdose.
Does Eminem Have a wife?
Eminem does not have a wife presently. The famous rapper has been married twice to the same woman, but he is a divorcee and does not have a wife at the moment. He was born on the 17th of October 1972 and is currently 51 years old. Despite his age, he is reluctant to give marriage another shot, and it seems he is used to being single.
Eminem has talked about his relationship status a few times and has maintained that even though he is single, he is not lonely. The Detroit native once admitted that he has trust issues, which have limited him to a small circle of friends. He finds making new friends an unnecessary endeavor as he is often consumed with thoughts about their real motives. This extends to his love life.
Although the Lose Yourself rapper would like to be in a relationship again, he acknowledges that it is hard for someone like him to meet new people. He describes going out in public as “just too crazy” for him and doesn’t see himself going out for romantic dinners or movie dates. However, given that he hopes to someday love someone again, he might as well get married for the third time.
Who Was Eminem’s First Wife?
Kimberly Anne Scott is Eminem’s first wife. Kim, as the rapper calls her, is an American author and illustrator born on the 9th of January 1975 in Warren, Michigan. This makes her 49 years old at the moment and over two years younger than her famous ex-husband.
Kim is Eminem’s high school sweetheart, as their relationship reportedly began during their teenage years, sometime in 1987. They dated for years, and it spanned through the 90s, culminating in the birth of their only child together, Hailie Jade Scott Mathers. Following the birth of Haile on the 25th of December 1995, they started working towards getting married. Even though they had encountered lots of challenges as a couple, it didn’t stop them from eventually tying the knot in 1999, four years after they had Hailie.
However, it seems the challenges they were having got the best of the marriage. Barely a year into the marriage, the famous rapper dropped Kim, a 2000 song that captures the way things were with him and Kimberly Anne Scott. Eminem expresses intense anger and hatred towards Kim in the song, which ends with him murdering her. It is said that this song led to their separation, which was soon followed by their divorce in 2001.
If there was a chance for the couple to work things out following the release of Kim, it was complicated by the fact that there were allegations of infidelity. Also, in 2000, the Till I Collapse rapper accused Kim of cheating on him with John Guerra. It was said that Kim kissed Guerra; Eminem was displeased and attacked Guerra with an unloaded gun, which earned him an assault charge. All of these effectively brought their marriage to an end in 2001.
Eminem and Kim Got Married Again in 2006 and Divorced that Same Year
In 2002, just after the rapper ended his first marriage, he reportedly told Rolling Stone that he would rather have a baby through his penis than get married again. Given that, it was quite a shock that the rapper didn’t only decide to get married again but to remarry his ex-wife, Kimberly Anne Scott. The child he had with Kim and their history together might have inspired the decision to wed Kim again.
The rapper had met Kim in high school while rapping LL Cool J’s I’m Bad. Like him, Kim and her twin sister, Dawn, were having a rough childhood. One that was so bad the twin sisters ran away from home and moved in with Eminem and his mother when the rapper was only 15. That was how their relationship started, and in January 2006, he found himself marrying Kim a second time. That same year, Eminem filed for divorce and decided to share custody of Hailie with Kim.
Apart from Hailie, Kim had two other children: Whitney Scott Mathers (Stevie Laine Mathers) and Parker Scott. When the rapper reconciled with Kim in 2005, which followed their second wedding, he adopted Kim’s daughter with Eric Hartter, Whitney Scott Mathers, who is now known as Stevie Laine Mathers. He also adopted Alaina Marie Mathers, the daughter of Kim’s late twin sister, Dwan Scott. Around the same time, he also got custody of his younger half-brother named Nathan.
Who Is Eminem’s Girlfriend?
Eminem, as far as the public knows, does not have a girlfriend and is not dating anyone at the moment. As discussed earlier, he is interested in having a romantic partner, but dating is difficult for him, and he has trust issues. One could conclude that this is partly because of the toxic relationship he had with Kim. The relationship has left both of them traumatized for years.
If Eminem is romantically involved with anyone at the moment, then he has gone to lengths to keep it away from the public. While he does not have anyone to call his girlfriend at the moment, he has been romantically linked with multiple women over the years, including the likes of Nicki Minaj, Mariah Carey, Skylar Grey, and Brittany Murphy.

It is believed in some quarters that Kaya and Eminem were once lovers. Although this claim has not been meaningfully confirmed, we can confirm that the two were once close. In one of her many interviews, Kaya said that she had accompanied the rapper on some of his tours. Whatever happened between the two might forever remain a secret between them, but they are no longer close, and it seems Kaya is crossed with the rapper. She has openly confronted him on various issues online.
Gina Lynn and Eminem
Tanya Mercado, known professionally as Gina Lynn, has also been romantically linked to Eminem. Gina is an American former pornographic actress, model, and stripper. Born on the 15th of February 1974, the 50-year-old reportedly had a romantic relationship with Eminem after appearing in the music video for his song, Superman. It is said that the rapper wanted Shannon Elizabeth for the music video but changed his mind after he saw Gina in “Analyze That.”
While neither Eminem nor Gina confirmed or denied they dated, the latter shared in one interview that Eminem was good to her. Words on the street had it that the two hit things off on set and took it off-set. If that is true, it means she cheated on her ex-husband, Travis Knight, with the rapper. Gina was married to Travis when they shot the music video. Records have it that they wedded in 1999 and divorced in 2012.
Britney Spears and Eminem
It has been widely reported that the famous rapper dated Britney Spears for a while in 2002. Unless you are not of this world, you should know that Britney is an American singer.

Apart from Nick and Tommy, she has been romantically linked to other men, and Eminem happens to be one of them.
According to Eminem, he dated Mariah for about seven months. He claims they parted ways because their personalities collided. But Mariah thinks the rapper is just obsessed with her and that they never dated. But in a 2002 interview with the late Larry King, she admitted to having hung out and talked with Eminem but stated that she didn’t consider that as dating him.
The claims and counter-claims about Mariah Carey and Eminem have been captured in several songs. Mariah Carey’s 2009 song Obsessed was about this. That same year, Eminem released The Warning. He dared Mariah in the song that any further attempt to portray him as obsessed would have him release details of their relationship, including voicemails.

While those are the men we can confirm she dated, it is believed in some quarters that she dated other men, including Eminem. It is said that their relationship was short-lived. They reportedly met and fell for each other on the set of 8 Mile, wherein Murphy portrayed the rapper’s ex-wife, Kimberly Anne Scott.
