US rapper Eminem is to become a grandfather.

The 51-year-old revealed the news in a music video released on Thursday for his song Temporary, which is dedicated to his daughter Hailie Jade.

The video features a montage of clips of the pair during their lives - including a moment when she presents her father with a blue jumper with "Grandpa 1" written on the back.

Jade then hands him what appears to be an ultrasound scan - which a visibly surprised Eminem then shows to the camera.

The 28-year-old also later confirmed her pregnancy in an Instagram post on Thursday.

The social media influencer uploaded photos of herself and her husband Evan McClintock hugging and looking at the ultrasound image.

She wrote: "Mom & dad est. 2025".

Temporary, which features singer Skylar Grey, is from the rapper's latest album The Death Of Slim Shady (Coup De Grace), which was released earlier this summer.

Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, explains in the introduction to the emotional track that it is for his daughter to listen to "When I'm no longer here".

He adds: "I wrote you this song, To help you cope with life now that I'm gone... Sweetie, be strong, I know I was your rock, And I still am...

"You will get over me and move on, you can play me on repeat on a song. But don't you dare shed a tear".

In the chorus, Grey sings: "In time, I'll be fine. The tears are temporary."

Jade, who married her husband in May, is the only biological daughter of Eminem with his ex-wife Kim Scott.

He also adopted two of Scott's daughters from previous relationships.

The rapper, who shot to fame with his single My Name Is in 1999, was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022.
