Dave Grohl Says He Fathered a Daughter Out of Wedlock

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Dave Grohl says he recently had a daughter outside his 21-year marriage to Jordyn Blum, with whom he has three older daughters.

“I recently became the father of a new baby 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 Tuesday in an Instagram post. “I love my wife and my children, and I am committed to earning their trust and forgiveness. We are grateful for your attention to all the children involved as we move forward together.”

Grohl, 55, did not share further details about the baby or her mother, and his representatives declined to comment.

Grohl married Blum, a former model turned film and television producer, in 2003. They have three daughters, including 18-year-old singer Violet Grohl, and a child, ages 15 and 10.

He was previously married to photographer Jennifer Leigh Youngblood, from 1994 to 1997, and has acknowledged that infidelity led to their divorce.

Grohl started the Foo Fighters in 1994, shortly after the death of Kurt Cobain ended Nirvana. In 2022, the band’s permanent drummer and Grohl’s best friend, Taylor Hawkins, died during a South American tour.
