Eminem’s future son-in-law has spilled the details about he secured the rapper’s blessing before popping the question.

Evan McClintock is the long-time boyfriend of Hailie Jade Scott Mathers, whose father is the award-winning ‘Not Afraid’ artist.

The couple announced their engagement earlier this month, but before asking for her hand in marriage McClintock asked Eminem – real name Marshall Mathers – for his blessing, which considering his bars and persona, sounds absolutely hair-raising.

“Over the holidays, I was looking for an opportunity not to make it too obvious,” McClintock shared during the latest episode of Hailie’s podcast Just a Little Shady.

Luckily for McClintock, his future father-in-law was totally on board with the pair tying the knot.

“I saw your dad go downstairs, and I’m like, ‘I gotta do it right now, or I’m not doing it today, and I’m gonna have to schedule another time.

“So I just followed him downstairs, and, thankfully, he was just down there getting your cake and made it happen.”

McClintock’s plans for the proposal go as far back as the Thanksgiving holidays. He found Hailie’s oval-cut diamond engagement ring on Boxing Day, the day after he spoke to the Grammy-winner about getting married.

“The day after my birthday, you got it? That’s crazy,” Hailie said. The podcast chat was the first time she’s heard about all the details behind the proposal, too.

McClintock got help from Mathers’ sister Alaina Marie Scott when choosing the ring.

“It’s funny, so your sister really helped me out. She basically told me what for sure not to get,” he said as his fiancée laughed, adding: “That’s all I told her, so it makes sense.”

Mathers shared an Instagram Carousel of the moment her soon-to-be hubby popped the question.

“Casual weekend recap… 2.4.23 i love you @evanmcclintock11,” she wrote in the caption along with a crying emoji and a wedding ring emoji.

The couple began dating back in 2016 when they were both attending Michigan State University.

Mathers has mostly kept out of the spotlight, but she has offered glimpses into her childhood through her podcast.

In the first episode which dropped back in July, she told her best friend Brittany Ednie that she didn’t realise how different her life was compared to kids who don’t have a world-renowned rapper dadIn one funny anecdote from their childhood, Ednie said she was shocked and confused when her BFF asked her if she wanted to play on her dad’s tour bus.

She recalled: “I don’t know, we had so many normal experiences that when something like that happened, I thought like, ‘Oh, everybody else does this too’, not realising that like, no, that’s freaking weird.

“It’s so fun to look back, when we have these conversations here, wherever, like thinking back as an adult, like, ‘Wow, that’s actually so surreal’.

“Those memories of me thinking those were normal things, now I look back and I’m like, ‘Holy crap, that was cool’.”
