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 "Grampa 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 husband Evan McClintock hugging and looking at the ultrasound image.
She wrote: "Mom & dad est. 2025".

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".

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