Eminem's ex says car accident was suicide tryEminem's ex-wife Kim Mathers said on a Detroit radio show Wednesday that her 2015 car accident was actually a suicide attempt. The Detroit News reported that Mathers called into local radio show "Mojo in the Morning" to discuss rumors surrounding her crashing her black Escalade in October 2015. She was charged with driving under the influence after the accident. "I did this on purpose and I'm so sorry," Mathers said on the show. "I never lied to [first responders]. I told them everything that I did. I said that I was sorry and that it was intentional and I didn't expect to make it out alive." Mathers, 41, and rapper Eminem, 43, were teenage sweethearts who married in 1999 before divorcing in 2001. In 2006 they briefly remarried before splitting again. The couple share a daughter, Hailie, and he reportedly adopted his former wife's daughter from another relationship. Their volatile relationship was well known to fans as Eminem famously rapped about his anger towards her in songs like "Kim," which ends with him killing her and stuffing her body into the trunk of a car. But Mathers told the radio station that her former husband is "real supportive" now. "We're really close friends," she said. "We're just trying to raise our kids together and make it as normal for them as possible." The October crash occurred in Macomb County in suburban Detroit. Her Escalade plunged into a ditch, struck a utility pole and landed upside down, the Detroit News reported. Records about the crash were sealed. Mathers said she is breaking her silence about the accident to let the public know they were sealed because of the suicide attempt, not because her family received preferential treatment. According to the Detroit News, Mathers' attorney has filed motions to have evidence about the alleged DUI thrown out and the case dismissed. www.cnn.com/2016/05/05/entertainment/kim-mathers-eminem-accident/

Kim needs major help, I hope she gets it and follows through on it. Must be so hard on the girls and her son. And now to find out he's autistic. Not to mention what EM is going through mentally because of this. I know it was in October, but still...The girls are going to have to walk the straight and narrow since mental illness does run in the family.

I know it is none of our business yet I can't help but wonder what caused her to spin out. I know she said her father's illness and her son illness. But I keep reading comments under some of the stories on facebook implying that this is not a one time thing. That she has been drinking for awhile and one guy commented that she has been a mess the past two years. Part of me wonders if it has anything to do with Hailie growing up and moving on to college? Like a mid life crisis. I guess my mind goes there because I have a daughter graduating in a few weeks and I know it has done a bit to my mind LOL

What illness are you talking about??is her son Patrick ill? ? |

I do feel bad for her..like I said I know what having a child move away does to a mother. She appears to have a lot going on in her life and she kept stating she had no one she could trust to talk to because everyone puts her business out. |

She pretty much implied it was only family she could talk to. There are things though that you can't talk with you family about. I mean how to you tell your daughters that taking care of their brother is getting to you, that you just can't deal. Or your mother and/or father that caring for him (father) is too much. Who do you go to when the only people you have are somewhat the source of the problem?

Well I can relate to that...sadly...but let's hope she's getting help with a therapist and that's a safe place so... And what about the father? I don't know anything THIS is why I need this board!!I can't get my information anywhere else |

I don't know anything THIS is why I need this board!!I can't get my information anywhere else She said her father almost died and she had to teach him how to walk and stuff again. That on top of caring for her son with special needs caused her to do what she did. Maybe she meant step father, no one really mentions her father or step father. I know I heard that her mother lived with her, but no mention of her mom's spouse LOL. And yes this is why we need this board everywhere else they are just stating "she is still at it" or "why is her name still Mathers" LOL |
