Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl Announces Birth of Daughter Outside Marriage, Vows to 'Regain Trust' of Family

  • Published

Dave Grohl, the 55-year-old frontman of the iconic rock band Foo Fighters, has revealed that he recently became the father to a baby girl born outside of his marriage. In an Instagram post shared on Tuesday, Grohl expressed his commitment to being a "loving and supportive parent" to his new daughter. The surprising announcement comes after two decades of marriage to Jordyn Blum, with whom Grohl shares three daughters.



Grohl, widely known for his work as a musician and former drummer of Nirvana, married Blum, a former TV producer and model, in 2003. Together, they have three daughters: Violet Maye, 18, Harper Willow, 15, and Ophelia Saint, 10. In his heartfelt post, Grohl emphasized his love for his family and acknowledged the strain the situation has placed on his relationships.

"I love my family dearly and am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness," Grohl wrote. "We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together."

Despite the public nature of his announcement, Grohl has chosen to keep certain details private, including the identity of the child's mother. He has also turned off the comments on his Instagram post, perhaps to shield his family from potential backlash during this challenging time.

The announcement has sparked significant attention in the media, with fans and industry insiders expressing shock and support. Grohl’s reputation as a dedicated family man, combined with his prolific career, has made him a beloved figure in the music world. The statement reflects his desire to focus on healing and protecting his children amid the personal turmoil.

The Foo Fighters recently concluded a successful world tour, following the release of their latest album, But Here We Are. The band has been in the spotlight in recent years, notably after the tragic loss of drummer Taylor Hawkins in 2022, which led to an outpouring of support from the music community. Grohl’s announcement comes at a pivotal time, as he balances personal challenges with his public life.

Grohl’s fans have long admired his candidness and resilience, and many are hoping for a positive resolution as he navigates this delicate family matter. For now, it seems the rock legend is focusing on the future and the wellbeing of his children, both old and new.
