Dave Grohl Announces He Fathered Child 'Outside of My Marriage'

Well, this is disappointing.

"I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness," the Foo Fighters frontman wrote on social media1

On Tuesday, Sept. 10, the Foo Fighters rocker, 55, shared on Instagram that he recently welcomed a daughter with a woman outside of his marriage. "I've recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage," he wrote in a statement.

"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," he continued. "We're grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together."

Not sure I understand. Yes, that was his first wife. (I apologize, I know this a gossipy post, I asked myself if I should post it, but I thought it was of interest ) the second paragraph below from Wikipedia :

In 1994, Grohl married Jennifer Leigh Youngblood, a photographer from Grosse Pointe, Michigan. They separated in December 1996 and divorced in 1997; Grohl admitted to infidelity.[166]

On August 2, 2003, he married Jordyn Blum; they had met at the Sunset Marquis Whiskey Bar in West Hollywood, California. They reside in Los Angeles[167] and have three daughters, born in 2006, 2009 and 2014.[168] On September 10, 2024, Grohl announced on Instagram that he had fathered a fourth baby daughter outside of his marriage.[169

I, I'm a new day rising
I'm a brand-new sky to hang the stars upon tonight
I, I'm a little divided
Do I stay or run away and leave it all behind?

Ah-ah-ah

It's times like these you learn to live again
It's times like these you give and give again
It's times like these you learn to love again
It's times like these time and time again
