Dave Grohl called Jordyn Blum his ‘future ex-wife’ years before baby scandal

Dave Grohl called his wife Jordyn Blum his “future ex-wife” long before he admitted to having an affair and fathering a child “outside” their marriage.

In fact, the 55-year-old Foo Fighters frontman gave Blum, 48, that dubious nickname the night they met at Los Angeles whiskey bar Sunset Marquis in 2001.

The former Nirvana drummer was at a bar with his late bandmate Taylor Hawkins when a woman who had been flirting with him introduced her friend Blum to Grohl.

The Grammy winner immediately thought she was out of his league. “Taylor was the eye-catcher,” Grohl recalled in a 2007 interview with the now-defunct music publication Q magazine.

“I’m wearing Vans sneakers, no socks, dirty shorts and a dirty T-shirt, surrounded by beautiful Hollywood.”

When he saw Blum, he thought, ‘Oh my God. No chance!’

“So I just drink and act like an ass,” he continued. “And by the end of the night I was pissed off and I was staring at her and thinking, ‘You’re my future ex-wife,'” he said, laughing uproariously, according to the magazine.

“So she gave me her number: ‘Jordyn, your future ex-wife.’”

Two years later, on August 2, 2003, Grohl married the former model and MTV producer in a ceremony at their LA home.

The couple have three daughters: Violet Maye, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.

Grohl admitted in a statement on his Instagram account on Tuesday that he had an extramarital affair and fathered a daughter “outside” of his marriage.

“I recently became the father of a new baby daughter, born out of wedlock,” Grohl revealed. “I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her. I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything in my power to earn their trust and forgiveness.”

He added: “We are grateful for your attention to all the children involved as we move forward together.”

A spokesperson for Grohl told The Post there was no further comment from the musician.

After Grohl made his announcement, social media users discovered that the rocker’s eldest daughter had deactivated her Instagram account.

It is unclear whether she did this before or after her father’s post became public.

Grohl did not immediately want to enter into a serious relationship with Blum after their first meeting.

“When I first met my wife, we went on a few dates and I decided I wasn’t ready for a serious relationship, so I just stopped calling,” he admitted to ELLE in 2007.

The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer eventually changed his mind. “After three months, I had an epiphany and called her back. She picked up the phone and said, ‘Oh, I never thought I’d hear from you again.’”

Before his marriage to Blum, Grohl was married to photographer Jennifer Youngblood from 1994 to 1997.

Grohl and Blum were recently spotted together in the coveted Royal Box on the second day of the tennis championship at Wimbledon on July 2 — just weeks before he revealed his affair and announced the birth of his new daughter.
