Foo Fighters founder Dave Grohl made a revelation that left fans in shock. On September 10, 2024, he shared an Instagram post where he admitted to fathering a baby daughter outside wedlock. However, the lead singer added that he would do everything to regain his wife and children's trust.
Dave Grohl wrote:
“I've recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage. I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her. I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We're grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together.”
The singer has been married to TV producer Jordyn Blum since 2003, and they have three daughters: Violet Maye, Harper Willow, and Ophelia Saint. In 2023, Blum joined Grohl and their three daughters for a rare public appearance at the Grammy Awards.
Dave Grohl was previously married to Jennifer Leigh Youngblood
Dave married photographer Jennifer Leigh Youngblood in 1994 but separated in 1996 with their divorce being finalized in 1997. Reportedly, he admitted to cheating on Youngblood. While reflecting on his divorce, he allegedly said the two of them were too young and unprepared for marriage at that time. He expressed that he missed her deeply, describing her as incredibly funny and endearing.
Musician Jennifer Finch, bassist for the hard rock band L7, had a relationship with Dave Grohl in the early 1990s. In the 2016 documentary L7: Pretend We're Dead, archival footage showed Jennifer flipping through a magazine and seeming perturbed upon seeing Dave's image from his Nirvana days.
He had a relationship with Louise Post of the alternative rock band Veruca Salt around 1997. Nonetheless, their romance ended abruptly when Dave Grohl called Post before a concert to part ways and pursue a brief relationship with Winona Ryder that year.
Dave Grohl dated snowboarder Tina Basich
Dave and champion snowboarder Tina Basich reportedly dated from 1998 until their tumultuous breakup in 1999. It came shortly after Tina suffered a leg injury that sidelined her snowboarding career for months. During her recovery, Tina heard rumors about Dave’s infidelity and found herself neglected as she tried to confirm the truth.
Basich said breakups were tough, but ending things with a rock star was particularly harsh. She mentioned in her 2003 memoir that after five weeks of trying to reach Dave to confirm rumors about his infidelity, she received only a brief phone call from him.
