Dave Grohl insists viral post claiming to be his surprise love child is FAKE - after admitting he fathered a daughter outside of his marriage to Jordyn Blum

As a long-time fan of Dave Grohl and his music, I find myself deeply saddened by the recent news about his personal life. Having followed Grohl’s career for years, I’ve always admired him as a talented musician and a dedicated family man. It’s disheartening to learn that he has strayed from the path he once set for himself.


According to Dave Grohl, a widely-shared post alleging it’s his illegitimate child born outside of his marriage is not genuine.

55-year-old musician famous for Foo Fighters admitted that he had a daughter born outside his marriage with wife Jordyn Blum, surprising many fans.

Following a popular Instagram post supposedly announcing his newborn daughter named Roxie Junie Grohl, TMZ reports that a spokesperson for Dave confirmed the post is actually false.

Initially, the post was published by user @valeriegreyston on a Wednesday, featuring an image of her hand holding a tiny baby’s hand, accompanied by a detailed description.

The title stated: ‘My darling Roxie Junie Grohl, being your mother has undoubtedly been the most extraordinary journey of my life.’

Daily, I find myself growing even deeper in affection for you and this exciting new part I play. My father stood beside me throughout our journey, ensuring we were both well-cared for, and I am incredibly thankful for his unwavering love and assistance.

I find myself navigating uncharted waters in the realm of being a baby parent, yet I pledge to give it my all for your sake. Despite yearning to broadcast my happiness globally, it’s crucial that we safeguard our privacy at this moment in time.

‘I’m happy that everyone knows about you, though, because you are such a special part of my life.

Dear Roxie, each glance I give you brings back images of your father in your features – it’s as if there’s a miniature mirror of him in the most charming aspect possible.

From the shape of your eyes to the adorable wrinkle it creates when you smile, you’re undeniably a spitting image of Grohl.

It’s truly astonishing to see the strong resemblance between your father and you. He must feel an immense sense of pride as he sees his family’s essence living on through you. I can clearly see the same resilience and compassion in you, traits that are reminiscent of your father.

You have a beautiful mix of us two, and whenever I see traces of him in you, it touches my heart deeply.

You’re a precious piece of our family heritage, and we couldn’t be more proud of you. A big thank you for your affection and encouragement! Keep shining brightly!

After the news broke that Dave, aged 55, had previously hired a divorce attorney, it emerged that he admitted to infidelity later on.

Back in early August, it’s possible that Jordyn, who tied the knot with the musician in 2003, might have suggested some marital tension, as she chose not to don her wedding ring during a seemingly awkward joint appearance in Los Angeles.

Despite strolling side by side on the pavement, Grohl and Blum appeared remarkably detached: Grohl was engrossed in smoking a cigarette, while Blum seemed to be deeply absorbed in her phone.

As they sauntered along the street, they maintained a few feet of space between them, both clad in all-black attire.

It’s unclear whether the musician had previously told his wife about his infidelity and pregnancy of another woman by the time the photos were captured on August 1st.

On Wednesday, it was reported by People that Grohl had already hired a divorce lawyer prior to his public announcement on social media.

Today’s news follows his admission, shared on Instagram yesterday, about the birth of a daughter with an unnamed individual.

“I’ve just welcomed a new baby girl into the world, who was born outside of my current marriage. My intention is to be a nurturing and caring parent for her.

I deeply cherish my spouse and kids, and I’m making every possible effort to rebuild their trust and seek their pardon. We appreciate your understanding as we navigate this journey towards reconciliation, hand in hand with everyone affected.

In 2001, Dave Grohl (age 48) and his wife, also 48 at the time, first crossed paths. They officially tied the knot in 2003 and now have three lovely daughters: Violet (age 18), Harper (age 15), and Ophelia (age 10).

Blum previously worked as a model and TV producer.

Before the news broke, the pair’s eldest child appeared to deactivate her Instagram.

Over the years, the rockstar, frequently referred to as a devoted family man, has consistently emphasized the significance of his family in various interviews.

2007 saw Grohl expressing to The Guardian that his wife, Jordyn, and daughter, Violet, serve as anchors preventing him from totally vanishing.

Speaking to TIME in 2012, he said his family ‘changed everything that I do.’

He added: ‘It’s changed everything that I do. When you have kids, you see life through different eyes. You feel love more deeply and are maybe a little more compassionate. It’s inevitable that that would make its way into your songwriting.’

Grohl divorced his first wife Jennifer Leigh Youngblood in 1997 after admitting to cheating.

There isn’t much information available about Blum in public records, but it has been reported that she graced the cover of Teen magazine following her discovery at a supermarket when she was just 12 years old.

Blum was reportedly working as a producer at MTV when she met the frontman.

Back in 2007, I, a die-hard fan, found myself face to face with the legendary Dave Grohl. However, little did I know that our paths were destined to cross casually, as he confessed he wasn’t quite ready for a committed relationship when we first met. After a handful of enchanting dates, my calls to the captivating Zoe Blum ceased, leaving me eagerly waiting for the day our stars might align once more.

Three months later, I experienced an epiphany and reached out to her once more. When she answered, she exclaimed, “I honestly didn’t expect to hear from you again.

In various instances, Blum has worked alongside the Foo Fighters, one of these collaborations being in their 2002 music video for “White Limo,” where she made a cameo appearance.

She also co-directed the Foo Fighter’s 2002 Walking a Line music video.

News of Grohl’s infidelity comes after he was last seen with Blum at Wimbledon in July.
