    Eminem’s ex-wife Kim Mathers’ new tattoo collection explained from Alice In Wonderland pics to emo quotes on neck

    EMINEM’S ex-wife Kim Mathers has added dozens of tattoos since she was last seen in public around five years ago, after getting the bug to get new ink. Exclusive photographs obtained by The U.S. Sun showing her on a rare outing close to her home in Macomb, Michigan, give a closer look at her choice of designs.

    Kim, 48, has decided to cover a huge tribal tattoo on her top right arm with a gothic inking and has added the word ‘Artemis’ in large, block text further down.
    In ancient Greek religion and mythology, Artemis is believed to be the daughter of Zeus and Leto and is the goddess of the moon, wild animals, and ‘the hunt’.
    Kim, who has been open about her many struggles over the years, including time in rehab recently after taking pills, also has the words ‘born, regret’ tattooed on her neck. 
    She has found a way to turn her pain into art and also added the phrase “some destruction is beautiful” as well as a cross on her left shoulder and other markings. 

    Asked directly why she decided to get so many tattoos, she told The U.S. Sun: “I don’t know, but I love Alice In Wonderland,” pointing to her giant colorful Cheshire Cat design down her top left arm.
    Eminem’s ex, who has three children with the rap superstar and one from another relationship, also debuted her cropped blonde hairstyle after shaving her head some months ago.
    She showed off a new rockstar look in a blackless Shein denim jumpsuit, a black MCM designer cross-body bag, and black studded ankle boots.
    HARD YEAR
    The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed Kim is doing much better since her mental health scare, and she received treatment for addiction at a center in Detroit, Michigan.
    Most read in Celebrity
    When approached to ask how she is, she admitted: “It’s been hard, I lost my mom, my dad, and my sister [over the past 10 years].
    “[But] I’m good. I’ve been clean since about October, I went to Jefferson House … for 45 days.”
    Kim, who has downsized her home in recent months, revealed she had previously been taking pills to try and sleep as she struggled with the loss of her mother.
    She said her children had been “very supportive,” and she is now on medication, but declined to talk further about her situation.
    Kim posted a heartfelt message to her mom, Kathy Sluck, who died on July 23 last year, writing underneath an online obit: “You’re all I had left Momma.”
    She added: “I can’t imagine this without you! I love you Momma! Kiss my dad and sister for me.”
    Just a day after the funeral she was rushed to hospital following a suicide attempt, when one of her panicked children called 911 after finding her on the bathroom floor.
    Kim has been open about her mental health struggles over the years and previously tried to take her own life in 2015 by crashing her car into a utility pole.
    SUPPORTIVE EX
    She told cops after surviving the crash she’d drank a fifth of Malibu rum and waited until nobody else was on the road.
    She struck a utility pole and her SUV landed upside down in a ditch.
    Kim was still sentenced to 12 months of probation and a $900 fine in connection to the October 2015 crash.
    Kim and Eminem, real name Marshall Mathers, have a biological daughter Hailie Jade, 27, together, along with an adopted daughter, Alaina, 30, whose later mother Dawn was Kim’s sister.
    The rapper also raised Kim’s child Stevie Lane, 21, from a previous relationship, who now identifies as non-binary.
    Kim also has a teenage son, Parker, who remains the only offspring living with her at home.
    She and Eminem were married from 1999 to 2001 and she sued for defamation just days after he filed for divorce over the violent lyrics in his song ‘Kim’.
    They settled out of court and ended up reconciling, tying the knot again in 2006 but divorcing just a year later.

    She has since spoken fondly of her ex, saying he has been supportive during her many health struggles and they are still in touch.
