Em's Mom

Name: Debbie Mathers-Briggs

Debbie became unscheduled pregnant at the age of 17 and married her boyfriend Marshall Bruce Mathers II. The marriage did only retain for one year. Thereafter they had several realtionships. She did bear a baby (Em's half brother Nathan) in 1986, the father is Fred Samara Jr., who denied that it was his son and was sued to pay alimony.

The relationship between Em and his mom is very bad at the moment: in 1999 she filed a lawsuit against her son (10 million dollars), because he named her in an interview a 'drug addicted alcoholic and vagabund'. Now Eminem has to pay Debbie 25 000 dollars compensation for pain and suffering. The relationship between the two ist still bad.
