Reports on TMZ say Eminem’s mother, Debbie Nelson, died at 69 following a battle with advanced lung cancer. The report further said the following:
Sources tell TMZ Debbie passed away due to lung cancer. She died last night in St. Joseph, Missouri.Debbie’s diagnosis was first revealed in September … and reports at the time said she didn’t have long to live.
Eminem’s relationship with his mother has famously been a rollercoaster of drama and dysfunction.
In his early career, he publicly accused her of being neglectful and abusive, often airing their dirty laundry in scathing tracks like “Cleanin’ Out My Closet.”
To be honest, it sounds like my own mother and she’ll probably end up with lung cancer too. She’s been a smoker for decades and filled with enough drama for several families.
Hard to have a relationship with anyone like that. We wish Eminem’s family and friends the best during this tough time, but I also wonder if Eminem is just glad the drama is over. I don’t understand the people who spend more time creating drama instead of good memories. It makes us not want anything to do with them on a human level. I wonder if Eminem experienced that and how he dealt with it.
Things were so bad with Eminem’s mom that she actually sued him when he dissed her on a song. Do you have anyone in your family who is nothing but drama? How do you deal with it?
