thanks to her friend Brittany Ednie offering some help. Speaking on the podcast, Brittany spoke openly: "I need to also defend myself now that this is public knowledge that you are pregnant because at said wedding, people did not know that she was pregnant." Brittany confessed to covertly consuming all of Hailie's drinks during the event to keep their circle of friends from guessing the truth.

She explained her side: "So she was, you know, grabbing a drink, not consuming the drink as a responsible parent does." Brittany detailed their discreet tactic: "Whenever people were turned around, she would hand me her drink, and I would chug so it looked as if she was continuously drinking throughout that night."

Hailie revealed that her friend had been heroically "taking one for the team" by doubling up on drinks, even though she never explicitly asked explaining: "I'll defend myself, though, because I never really asked you to do it. It was like an unspoken thing with our eyes." Hailie and her beau Evan first crossed paths in 2016, and after seven years together, he proposed. The lovebirds tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony in May. Eminem welcomed Hailie into the back in December 1995 with then-wife Kim Scott.
