Dave Grohl admits he has a new baby outside of his 23-year marriage

Dave Grohl has announced that he has given birth to another baby out of wedlock.

On Tuesday, September 10, the 55-year-old Foo Fighters rocker shared on Instagram that he recently welcomed a daughter with a woman outside of his marriage. “I recently became a father to a baby girl born outside of my marriage,” he wrote in a statement.

“I plan to be a loving and supportive father to her. I love my wife and children and am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness,” he continued. “We are grateful for your consideration for all of the children involved as we move forward together.”

A spokesman for Grohl had no further comment.

Grohl has been married to his wife Jordyn Blum since 2003. The couple has three children together: daughters Violet (18), Harper (15) and Ophelia (10).

Although the former Nirvana drummer does not often talk about his wife in interviews, he spoke about the importance of his family in 2009 and told TIME“I used to be on tour nine months a year. Now I don't like being away from my children for more than twelve days.”

The musician continued: “It's changed everything I do. When you have kids, you see life differently. You feel love more deeply and are maybe a little more compassionate. It's inevitable that that will find its way into songwriting.”

In 2023, Blum made a rare public appearance with Grohl and their three daughters at the 2023 Grammy Awards, where the family of five posed for photos together on the red carpet.

Blum wore a short, black sequined dress, while Grohl rocked an all-black ensemble. Violet, the couple's eldest daughter, rocked a blazer dress and knee-high boots; Harper wore a floral dress with tread boots, and Ophelia wore a flowy ombre dress that she paired with a gold handbag.

Blum and Grohl were last spotted at London's Wimbledon tennis tournament in July 2024. The two sat together in the coveted Royal Box seats alongside several celebrities, including David Beckham.
