Kim Scott Tased and Arrested After Suicide Attempt at Michigan Home

The name Kim Scott rarely surfaces without the gravitational pull of Eminem's orbit close behind — but the story unfolding out of Michigan this week is one that cuts far deeper than celebrity gossip. Scott, formerly known as Kim Mathers, was hospitalized after a harrowing incident at her home that ended with an arrest, a taser deployment, and fresh questions about her well-being.

What Happened at Her Michigan Home

On Saturday, a relative dialed 911 after finding Scott in a dangerous situation inside her home. Emergency dispatch audio obtained by Page Six reveals the gravity of the call: the caller reported that Scott had cut her wrist and was bleeding, sitting on a couch with a knife in her hand while music played in the background. By the time officers arrived, the caller had managed to remove the knife, and Scott had lost consciousness.

First responders rushed her to McLaren Macomb Hospital in Mount Clemens, Michigan. Her current condition has not been publicly confirmed.

A Volatile Scene With Responding Officers

What reportedly unfolded before paramedics could stabilize Scott added another alarming layer to an already devastating night. According to a police report, Scott was "irate and combative" when officers attempted to assist her — dressed only in a bra and underwear — and resisted being placed in handcuffs. She allegedly bit an officer on the forearm and, after being tased, kicked another officer in the shin. Officers then placed her under arrest on charges of assaulting a police officer and resisting arrest.

For those following Scott's story closely, this troubling episode echoes a pattern that has repeated itself before. You can read more context in our earlier coverage: Eminem's Ex-Wife Kim Scott Hospitalized: What We Know.

A History of Crisis

Saturday's incident marks at least the third time Scott has been linked to a suicide attempt. In October 2015, she was involved in a single-vehicle crash in Macomb Township that she later acknowledged was intentional. Then, in July 2021, police responded to another call at her Michigan home, where she was reportedly so combative upon their arrival that she required physical restraint.

Beyond the mental health crises, Scott has faced mounting legal trouble in recent months. Earlier this year she was arrested and booked on a suspected DUI charge at Macomb County Jail in Mt. Clemens. A warrant was subsequently issued after she failed to appear at her scheduled court hearing.

The Eminem Connection — and the Family Behind the Headlines

Kim Scott and Eminem — born Marshall Mathers — share one of the most documented and turbulent relationships in hip-hop history. They first married in June 1999, divorced in 2001, then reconciled and remarried in January 2006, only for Eminem to file for divorce again just three months later. That second split was finalized in December 2006.

Together, the exes are parents to Hailie Jade, 30, who has built her own social media presence largely independent of her father's fame. They also raised Alaina, 33, whose biological mother was Scott's late twin sister Dawn — who died in 2016 from a suspected heroin overdose — and Stevie, 24, Scott's child with former partner Eric Hartter.

It's a family tree shaped as much by grief and hardship as by the bright lights that surround Eminem's career. While the music world keeps spinning — from SZA and Steve Lacy getting vulnerable on new material to Olivia Rodrigo launching her all-women festival Daisy Chain Fields — moments like these serve as a reminder that behind every headline, real lives hang in the balance.
