His daughter Hailie Jade Scott (29) announced the birth of her first son on Instagram.

"Happy due date/ three weeks on earth, little E," it reads. According to the post, the little one was born on March 14 and will be called Elliot Marshall McClintock.

The middle name is a tribute to his grandfather, whose real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers.

Eminem announced in a music video at the beginning of October that he was going to be a grandfather. The video for the song "Temporary" shows video clips of his daughter Hailie as a little girl as well as more recent footage, including of her in her wedding dress.

Towards the end of the video, the daughter presents her visibly speechless father with a jersey with the word "Grandpa" and an ultrasound image.

Hailie Jade is married to her long-term boyfriend Evan McClintock (30).
