Debbie Nelson, the mother of Eminem, has passed away at the age of 69 following a prolonged battle with lung cancer. 
Debbie and Eminem shared a complex relationship that was often publicly highlighted through his music and media coverage. Eminem openly criticized her in earlier tracks, such as "Cleanin' Out My Closet," leading to public disputes, including a defamation lawsuit Debbie filed against her son in 1999.
However, in later years, Eminem expressed regret for their strained bond, notably through his 2013 song "Headlights," which served as a heartfelt apology.
Debbie Nelson's life was marked by personal struggles and resilience. She grew up in a challenging family environment, documented in her memoir My Son Marshall, My Son Eminem, which detailed her upbringing and the dynamics of her relationship with her son.
Despite their difficulties, Debbie publicly supported Eminem's achievements, including a congratulatory message during his induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2022, reflecting her enduring pride in his success.
