Kim Scott, who was previously married to Eminem and was controversially made a subject of his earlier musical output, is reportedly recovering following a self-harm incident.
According to a report from TMZ, citing police sources, Scott was hospitalized after what they describe as “a suicide attempt.” Emergency services are said to have responded to a call of “a suicidal person” at Scott’s Michigan residence on July 30, with Scott allegedly behaving in a “combative” manner upon their arrival.
Scott, who reportedly had lacerations on her leg, was reportedly restrained by authorities and taken to a nearby hospital for medical and psychological exams. At the scene, per the report, authorities were unable to check her vitals. She’s since been released and is undergoing recovery at her home.
Marshall Mathers and Kim Scott divorced in 2001, i.e. the same year the final single from the former’s sophomore album The Marshall Mathers LP was released, after two years of marriage. The couple, who have a 25-year-old daughter together, were briefly married again in 2006.
In 2010, rumors circulated alleging the two were getting back together until a spokesperson for Eminem made a public clarification about their relationship.
“Contrary to false rumors spread by unreliable tabloids, Marshall and Kim Mathers are not romantically reunited in any way, nor are they expecting a child together,” a rep said at the time. “They are a divorced couple who share custody of their daughter and maintain a friendly relationship.”
If you or someone you know is in crisis, help is available.
