Eminem's Uncle Commits Suicide
Eminem was just dealt a heavy blow when his uncle recently committed suicide.
Sources say, Todd Nelson helped raise Slim when his biological dad walked out and was a father figure to the emcee. Nelson marks the second time one of Em' uncle commits suicide. Slim's Uncle Ronnie committed suicide after being dumped by his girlfriend when Em was just a teen.
"This news has hit Marshall hard. It will bring back all the memories of losing Ronnie," a close family friend revealed. "To lose two uncles at such a young age is terribly sad, especially as his father has never been around. The fact they both committed suicide is so tragic."
Sources say Nelson had been upset over a rottweiller owned by the local sheriff. In recent days, the dog had reportedly scratched his car and scared his girlfriend's son. Sources say the authorities didn't do anything after he complained. Nelson shot himself in his backyard and his son discovered his body.
