Legendary rapper Eminem announced that his daughter Hailie Jade is expecting a baby, causing the internet to go into meltdown - and now the mum-to-be has made an announcement of her own.
51-year-old Eminem, real name Marshall Mathers, broke the news in iconic fashion - in a music video.
His latest track 'Temporary' was dedicated to his 28-year-old daughter Hailie, and included never-before-seen photographs of the pair.
The song talks about what Hailie should do in the event of his death and it's a certified tearjerker.

But there is also the mention of new life, with a three-second clip in the video announcing Hailie's pregnancy.
Hailie gives her dad a blue jersey with the words 'Grandpa 1' emblazoned across the back, with an ultrasound.
Eminem has made no secret of the fact Hailie is the apple of his eye throughout the years, and the announcement was the ultimate full circle moment for fans.
Hailie took to Instagram yesterday to share the news, posting photos of herself and her husband Evan McClintock embracing while holding photos of the ultrasound.
She captioned the photos: "mom & dad est. 2025."
One person wrote: "The world watched you grow up and now you’re having a baby."
Another said: "Babys guna have the most iconic grandpa in the world."
While a third quoted lyrics from Eminem's song 'Drug Ballad': "I'll be 40 before I know it with a 40 on the porch telling stories with a bottle of jack, two grandkids in my lap babysitting for Hailie," alongside crying emojis.
In the emotional song 'Temporary,' Eminem raps: "Yeah, so Hailie Jade, I wrote you this song to help you cope with life now that I'm gone.
"How should I start? Just wanna say, look after Alaina, Stevie, and Uncle Nate, and, sweetie, be strong, I know I was your rock.
"And I still am, saying goodbye is just not ever easy. But why you crying? Just stop Hailie, baby, dry your eye, this is not forever."
Hailie is Eminem's biological daughter that he shares with his ex-partner Kim Scott.
Also referenced in the song, Stevie, 22, is the child of Kim Scott and her then-boyfriend, Eric Hartter, while Alaina, 31, is the daughter of Kim's sister Dawn Scott, who died as a result of a suspected overdose. Both were adopted by the rapper.
One person reacted to the video: "Eminem crying is the last thing I expected to see... Dad and daughter bond is truly amazing... Loved this song."
Another said: "Thank you so much for sharing this with us, we know how private you are. This was so special and I feel so honored [sic] you shared this with your fans."
