Dave Grohl, from Foo Fighters, shared that he had a baby with someone outside of his marriage to Jordyn Blum. He posted on Instagram, saying he plans to be a caring parent to his new daughter. He also said he loves his wife and kids and is working hard to regain their trust and forgiveness.
Dave Grohl ended his message by thanking everyone for respecting his children during this time as his family moves forward together. He didn’t share any details about the mother of his newborn. Grohl, 55, and his wife Jordyn Blum, 48, recently celebrated 21 years of marriage. They have three children together: Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.
Dave Grohl and Jordyn Blum first met in 2001 at a bar, but it wasn’t love at first sight. Dave said in a 2007 interview that after a few dates, he decided he wasn’t ready for a serious relationship and stopped calling her. Over time, he changed his mind and they became a couple.
After three months, Dave Grohl had a change of heart and called Jordyn Blum again. She answered the phone and said she didn’t think she’d hear from him again.
Two years later, Dave talked about how having kids changed him. He used to tour a lot, but now he doesn’t like being away from them for more than 12 days. He said that having children makes him see life differently, feel love more deeply, and be more compassionate, which also influences his songwriting.
