Like a lot of celebrities, the single life isn\u2019t a breeze for rapper Eminem. Eminem’s constant public scrutiny, media attention and the pitfalls of being so well-known create obstacles that are difficult to overcome. He is acknowledged as having been a great friend. \u201ctrust issues\u201dThis makes it hard to find a partner. Is Eminem currently in a relationship with anyone? Here\u2019s what we know about his current relationship status as well as his past flings, both confirmed and rumored.<\/p>\n

Eminem is currently single<\/h2>\n

December 2017 Eminem told Vulture<\/em><\/a>, \u201cSince my divorce, I\u2019ve had a few dates, and nothing\u2019s panned out in a way that I wanted to make it public. Dating\u2019s just not where I\u2019m at lately.\u201dHe said that he uses Tinder to find women and also added that Tinder has helped him meet his wife. \u201cgoing to strip clubs.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

In response to the interviewer\u2019s question about whether being so well-known \u201cis lonely\u201dEminem spoke for him. \u201cAm I lonely? No, I\u2019m good. Thanks for asking though.\u201d<\/p>\n

He was not a smooth sailer. He admitted it openly MTV<\/em>He has \u201ctrust issues.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI have trust issues\u2014with women, friends, whatever. You always wonder what their real motives are,\u201d The Detroit native admits<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve got a small circle of friends, and it\u2019s a lot of the same friends I\u2019ve known forever. Right now, that works for me.\u201d<\/p>\n

He also mentioned other obstacles. \u201cAs far as going out, like dinner and a movie\u2014I just can\u2019t. Going out in public is just too crazy. \u2026 I mean, I\u2019d like to be in a relationship again someday. Who doesn\u2019t? It\u2019s just hard to meet new people, in my position.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kimberly Anne Scott has confirmed the news<\/h2>\n

Eminem met Kimberly Anne Scott in high school. They began dating in 1989. Hailie Mathers, Scott’s daughter, was born in 1995 at the height of Eminem’s fame.<\/p>\n

Scott and Eminem were married in 1999, before they divorced in 2001. They were briefly married again in 2006, between January and April.<\/p>\n

Their relationship was certainly tempestuous. Scott was a substance abuser and was arrested in 2003 for felony cocaine possession. Scott was sentenced to a month imprisonment for violating probation. She was later charged with DUI 12 year later. Scott admitted to being depressed, which was exacerbated by the death her twin sister from a drug overdose.<\/p>\n

Eminem\u2019s thoughts about Scott sometimes emerged in his music. Some of his remarks were not forgiving. He wrote, for instance, a 2002 lyric. \u201cHailie\u2019s Song\u201dThat was all he said. \u201ca wife that\u2019s determined to make my life livin\u2019 hell.\u201d<\/p>\n

In fact, Scott was so disturbed by Eminem\u2019s occasional public references to his anger towards her that she filed a defamation lawsuit against him in 2000.<\/p>\n

Scott’s attitude towards him was much more gentle and compassionate later on. In a song entitled “Realistic Assessment of Their Situation in 2010”, Eminem accurately portrayed their situation in 2010. \u201cI\u2019m Going Through Changes,\u201dWhen he wrote: \u201cWe just could never get it together hey, wish there was a better way.\u201d<\/p>\n

They are now co-parents that work more harmoniously together and seem to have moved past their shared history.<\/p>\n

Eminem adopted two girls, Hailie and Eric Hartter. Whitney Scott Mathers is the biological daughter of Scott, a now-deceased Eric Hartter. Whitney was born in 2002, shortly after Eminem\u2019s first divorce from Scott.<\/p>\n

Eminem\u2019s other adopted child is Alaina Marie Mathers, who is the biological daughter of Scott\u2019s sister, Dawn\u2014making her the rapper\u2019s biological niece. Alaina was adopted by Eminem in 2000 due to her unstable family life.<\/p>\n

She stated that they had a brief affair. \u201cIt came and went,\u201d Murphy replied, giggling charmingly. \u201cI admire him and have nothing but wonderful memories,\u201dShe continued.<\/p>\n

Eminem was slightly more reserved when he talked to MTV about Murphy’s connection to him. \u201cMimicking the sing-songy voice she used in last year\u2019s Don\u2019t Say a Word<\/em>, Eminem grinned and said<\/a>, \u201cI\u2019ll never te-ell.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMe and Brittany became friends,\u201dHe agreed after being pressed more. \u201cI\u2019ll say that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rumored: Mariah Carey<\/h2>\n

Carey was on December 2, 2002. Larry King Live<\/em>King asked her if they had ever dated. She answered no and explained. \u201cI hung out with him. I spoke to him on the phone. I think I was probably with him a total of four times. I don\u2019t consider that dating somebody.\u201d<\/p>\n
