Eminem's adopted daughter Alaina says her famous dad walked her down the aisle at her wedding
Proud dad Eminem was on hand to walk eldest daughter Alaina Scott down the aisle when she got hitched to her long-term partner Matt Moeller last week.
The happy couple tied the knot in a Great Gatsby-themed ceremony in Michigan, US, on 9 June.
And Eminem, who adopted Alaina in 2002, was there to walk her down the aisle.

In an interview with People, Alaina revealed: “I had an 80-ft long black and white checkered aisle and my dad walked me down the aisle. He wasn't going to miss that.”
As well as the famous rapper playing an important role in the big day, Alaina’s sister Hailie Jade - who got engaged earlier this year - was maid of honour.
Alaina is the biological daughter of Dawn Scott, Eminem's former sister-in-law.
Eminem officially adopted Alaina in 2002 after Dawn was unable to care for her.
Back in 2004, Eminem told Rolling Stone: "I have full custody of my niece. My niece has been a part of my life ever since she was born.
“Me and Kim pretty much had her, she'd live with us wherever we was at."
Newlywed Matt popped the question to Alaina in December 2021, with the besotted bride-to-be announcing the good news on Instagram.
"This moment. this life. Yes a hundred times over. I LOVE YOU,” she wrote, alongside some snaps of their romantic rooftop proposal.
Fast-forward 18-months and Alaina and Matt were all set to say their vows in front of 125 guests at the Packard Proving Ground Historic museum in Shelby Township, Michigan.
Alaina said she and her husband opted to keep the guest list relatively small, explaining: “Getting married is a sacred thing and we wanted to be surrounded by people who share in our daily lives.
“We did something super untraditional and didn't allow many plus ones. This was important to us.”
Gushing about the magical day, she went on: “Our wedding was something out of a movie. I planned the entire thing, down to every last detail. Even customised napkins of our dogs with the phrase ‘Our parents are married!’ It's just very rewarding to see all your hard work come to life.”
Alaina went on to praise her famous dad, telling the publication: “These are once-in-a-lifetime moments and I'm just so grateful to be loved the way I am by everyone.
“None of this would have been possible without my Dad. I'm beyond blessed.”
Ahh how lovely is that, eh?
