Dave Grohl says he is the father of an illegitimate daughter

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

“I recently became a father to a daughter born outside of my marriage. I plan to be a loving and supportive father to her,” the Foo Fighters frontman and former Nirvana drummer said in an Instagram post on Tuesday. “I love my wife and children and am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We are grateful for your consideration for all of the children involved as we move forward together.”

Grohl, 55, did not provide any further details about the baby or his mother, and his representatives declined to comment beyond the post.

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

He was previously married to photographer Jennifer Leigh Youngblood from 1994 to 1997. He admitted that infidelity contributed to their divorce.

Grohl founded the Foo Fighters in 1994, shortly after the death of Kurt Cobain brought an end to Nirvana. In 2022, the band’s longtime drummer and Grohl’s closest friend, Taylor Hawkins, died during a South American tour.
