British sources have Eminem and Kim Mathers rekindling their twenty year romance.

Akon, who is in London to promote his hit I Wanna (Love) You, tell the British Mirror: “Eminem still loves Kim….He can’t live with her, and he can’t live without her. But they are meant for each other. They are engaged again.”

Akon claims Em shared the news with him while the two were working another Ak hit, Smack That, together.

“Eminem will always love Kim. He is the mother of his child – so that’s difficult too. He loves spending time with them.”

This comes right on the heels of Kim’s confession that Em’s hit song entitled “Kim” that pays homage to her murder drove her to attempt suicide.

“….He decided to do that song and not only perform the song, but use a blow up doll to re-enact me being choked. I couldn’t take it.”

Kim felt betrayed by the performance and says it pushed her over the edge adding, “I made it home (after the concert) and I went upstairs in my bathroom and I slit my wrists and ended up in the hospital.”
