The Superman rapper continued his rise

in the rap charts and had his fair share
of celebrity relationships - but has only
ever tied the knot with one woman.

He was married to Kimberly "Kim"

Scott from 1999 to 2001 and then again
briefly in 2006.

In recent years they have remained on

good terms and co-parent their kids.

They began dating in 1989 after

meeting in high school, and friends said
that the pair were meant for each other
but ultimately life got in the way.

“Money is great, but it doesn’t make

Kim admitted during a 2007 interview.

“Or sleep in the same bed with you…

Him being on the road and on tour…
that was like the big one. I mean…
constant infidelities, all the time.”

During Eminem and Kim's relationship,

they welcomed one daughter, Hailie
Jade Scott Mathers, who was born in his
home city of Detroit, Michigan.

He is also the adopted father of their

niece, Alaina, and Stevie Mathers, whom
Kim welcomed with her ex-husband Eric
Hartter but raised with Eminem.

Alaina opened up about going back to

school on Hailie Jade's podcast, saying:
"I'm about to go back to esthetician
school. It's only a four-month program.

"I can learn how to do facials, makeup,

waxing, all that kind of stuff. Why not
further my education for four months?"

She now works as a beautician and

Eminem walked her down the aisle last
year.

Kim meanwhile has a teenage son

Parker from a more recent relationship.
