Eminem is suffering from depression and is on anti-depressants after a turbulent few months, it has been claimed.
The hip hop superstar divorced his childhood sweetheart Kim Mathers for the second time earlier this year and his best man, D-12's Proof, was then shot dead.
This week, reports in the New York Daily News claim the rapper, who was treated for addiction to prescription drugs last year, is again struggling with his mental health.
Eminem's spokesman, Dennis Dennehy, told the paper he was using anti-depressants to help him cope. He said: "Obviously, he's grieving.
"He is depressed as anyone would be if they lost someone that close. He had announced he was taking time off before this happened. It's his downtime."document.write(unescape("
