True friendship stands the test of time, and that’s exactly what 50 Cent and Eminem share. The two rappers have been close for years, and their bond was on full display when 50 Cent got emotional at the wedding of Eminem’s daughter, Hailie Jade.
A Special Moment at Hailie’s Wedding
Hailie Jade, 28, tied the knot with her longtime boyfriend, Evan McClintock, on May 18, 2024. Among the celebrity guests were Dr. Dre and music executive Jimmy Iovine, but it was 50 Cent who had one of the most heartfelt reactions to the big day.
In an interview with Haute Living, 50 Cent revealed that attending Hailie’s wedding made him reflect on fatherhood. Seeing Hailie walk down the aisle brought up emotions he didn’t expect, and he even found himself tearing up.
“I was having a moment myself over there,” he admitted. “I told Em, ‘You said it was OK to cry, because I’m crying.’ I couldn’t believe it went that fast.”
50 Cent Wishes He Had a Daughter
During the interview, 50 Cent also opened up about something he wishes he had in life—a daughter.
“I wish I had a daughter,” he confessed. “For girls, their dad is the first man they fall in love with. Boys tend to be closer to their moms—I’m a mama’s boy myself.”
Though 50 Cent is a proud father of two sons—Marquise (born in 1990) and Sire (born in 2008)—he couldn’t help but think about the special bond between a father and a daughter.
Hailie’s Big Year: Wedding & Baby News
Hailie, a social media influencer and podcast host, later shared stunning wedding photos online. But the surprises didn’t stop there!
In October 2024, she posted an exciting update on Instagram: she and her husband are expecting their first child. The post featured a picture of her holding a sonogram while hugging Evan, with the caption: “Mom & Dad est. 2025.”
Eminem also hinted at his upcoming grandpa status in his new music video Temporary, an emotional tribute to Hailie.
With a wedding and a baby on the way, it’s been a huge year for Eminem’s daughter. And for 50 Cent, the event was a touching reminder of just how fast time flies.
