Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl Admits to Infidelity and Secret Child

Grohl’s Confession of Infidelity

In an emo­tion­al Insta­gram post, Dave Grohl revealed that he has wel­comed a child “out­side” of his mar­riage to Jor­dyn Blum.

The Foo Fight­ers singer acknowl­edged his infi­deli­ty and expressed his desire to “regain the trust” of his wife and their three daughters.

Grohl’s Relationship with Blum

Grohl met Blum, a for­mer mod­el and MTV pro­duc­er, in 2001 and ini­tial­ly ghost­ed her after their ini­tial dates. How­ev­er, he lat­er recon­nect­ed with Blum and the two were mar­ried in 2003. This was Grohl’s sec­ond mar­riage, as he had pre­vi­ous­ly been mar­ried to pho­tog­ra­ph­er Jen­nifer Youngblood.

Family Life and Career Adjustments

Grohl and Blum have three daugh­ters togeth­er — Vio­let, 18, Harp­er, 15, and Ophe­lia, 10. Grohl has pre­vi­ous­ly spo­ken about how father­hood has changed his per­spec­tive and song­writ­ing, say­ing it made him “more com­pas­sion­ate” and less inclined to tour extensively.

Blum’s Involvement in Foo Fighters

Though large­ly avoid­ing the spot­light, Blum has been involved in sev­er­al Foo Fight­ers projects over the years, includ­ing appear­ing in music videos and being described as the band’s “offi­cial documentarian.”

Grohl’s Reputation and Fanbase Reaction

The rev­e­la­tion of Grohl’s infi­deli­ty and secret child is like­ly to have a sig­nif­i­cant impact on his pub­lic rep­u­ta­tion and rela­tion­ship with his loy­al Foo Fight­ers fan­base. Fans have already expressed dis­ap­point­ment and a sense of betray­al over the news.
