Superstar rapper Eminem made a fortune off of his extensive musical catalog. A lot of his lyrics revolved around his former lover, Kim Scott Mathers, which put her in an uncomfortable spotlight.

Rapping about his ex was even difficult for Slim Shady, too. But decades since that drama, Kim hasn't garnered much attention in the media. Her life has become very private, and with Eminem living his life separately, it's caused a lot of mystery as to what's going on in Kim's life.

Updated February 2024: Since the article was first published, Eminem and Kim's relationship hasn't changed much. Kim is still living a very private life off the grid. However, it seems as if her relationship with her ex and her daughter is rather cordial nowadays.

7 How Did Eminem And Kim Meet?

The two crossed paths during high school

  • Eminem and Kim were married twice — from 1999 to 2001 and then again briefly in 2006

Eminem and Kim met when the Detroit musician was rapping on a table. Kim was 15 and was homeless. She ended up moving in with him, and in the mid-nineties, they had their daughter Hailie Mathers. For a while, their love was fine. Eventually, their love declined, and they entered into a period of ups and downs.

However, things began to fall apart in 2001 when he and Kim got divorced. He said he'd never get married again but ended up re-marrying her in 2006.

  • Kim struggled with depression and addiction

It was rapped a little bit in Eminem's songs, but Kim Mathers struggled with addiction back in the 2000s. She struggled with depression and drug addiction due to her divorce from Eminem.

Her sister has unfortunately been a long-time addict whose life has deteriorated due to her habits. This, in turn, caused Kim to become depressed, and matters only got worse after her mom passed away. Struggling with everything, Kim made an attempt to take her own life.

On top of that, she's been arrested numerous times for possession of drugs. At one point in time, she was even arrested for drinking and driving.

  • Kim Mathers is currently living in rural Michigan

She does freelance work online, and if she ever needs help with money, her ex-husband has been known to help her out.

She seems to be living a clean lifestyle and is focused on getting her life back together after a terrible personal incident in August of 2021, according to The Daily Mail. The cause of the attempt on her life was mainly due to her mother's passing. Other problems in her immediate family might have helped as well.

Things seem to be fine now, thankfully.

Although their relationship has been on and off again, it's been more than a decade since it's last been known to be on. It's not publicly known who Kim's been seeing over the last decade — if anybody at all.

On a slightly positive note, Eminem and Kim ended up in a good scenario and consider themselves good friends now. It's mainly as a result of co-parenting, but they also seem to have each other's backs when the other is going through something tough in life.

  • The rapper hasn't mentioned her in a song since 2005

Eminem rapped about Kim Mathers a lot in his earlier albums. The last time he explicitly mentioned Kim was on the album Curtain Call. He mentioned his ex-wife multiple times, and he also mentioned Hailie multiple times as well. But that was the last time he explicitly mentioned either of them.

However, songs such as "Love The Way You Lie" and "Space Bound" are revolved around love and toxic relationships. Perhaps they're discreet references to Kim, but they surely helped him gain an impressive net worth.

At the very least, his marriage is the experience on which he bases any love or breakup songs, even if he doesn't directly mention Kim in them.
