LOS ANGELES – Dave Grohl says he recently had a daughter outside of his 21-year marriage to Jordyn Blum, with whom he has three older daughters.
“I have recently become the father of a new daughter, born out of wedlock. I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her,” the Foo Fighters frontman and former Nirvana drummer said on Tuesday in an Instagram post. “I love my wife and children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We are grateful for your consideration for all children involved as we move forward together.”
Grohl, 55, did not share any other details about the child or her mother, and his representatives declined any comment beyond the post.
Grohl married Blum, a former model turned film and television producer, in 2003. They have three daughters together, including 18-year-old singer Violet Grohl, along with a 15-year-old and a 10-year-old.
He was previously married to photographer Jennifer Leigh Youngblood, from 1994 to 1997, and has admitted that infidelity helped lead to their divorce.
Grohl started the Foo Fighters in 1994, shortly after Kurt Cobain’s death ended Nirvana. In 2022, the band’s longtime drummer and Grohl’s closest friend, Taylor Hawkins, died during a South American tour.
