www.audacy.comHere’s what I can tell you based on recent available reporting:
- Kimberley Anne Mathers, known publicly as Kim Mathers (ex-wife of Eminem), entered a no-contest plea in a Macomb County, Michigan case related to an impaired driving hit-and-run. The plea was reported to have occurred around May 11, 2026, with sentencing scheduled for June 17, 2026 in 42-2 District Court in New Baltimore/Chesterfield area. The plea focuses on operating while impaired and failing to stop after an accident, rather than a broader set of alleged facts.
- After the plea, the case moved from arraignment toward sentencing, with prosecutors indicating that impaired driving and failure to stop were central to the charges. Sentencing will determine the specific penalties following the no-contest admission.
- Coverage from local outlets notes the incident date as February 16, 2026, involving a white Range Rover striking a parked silver Dodge Ram and pushing it about 50 feet. Authorities indicated impairment at the time of the crash. The charges remain misdemeanors, each carrying limited potential jail time, and the no-contest plea is considered an acceptance of conviction for purposes of the case.
- There are broader, historical mentions of Kim Mathers in relation to Eminem, including past legal issues and probation matters, but the current 2026 proceedings are distinct and limited to the 2026 impaired driving charges. Past reports are not indicative of the current case’s status beyond background context.
