My hero Dave Grohl confessed he has a secret child “out of wedlock.”
Very good!
For the second time this month, a Hollywood celebrity is rumored to have a side baby or love child; whatever the kids are calling it these days.
However, unlike Judge Mathis, the Foo Fighters frontman has confessed to his love affair in a lengthy message to his fans, his wife and his family.
Dave Grohl’s secret baby: Rocker confesses to being father of new baby from another woman
He is apologizing to everyone.
The Foo Fighters rocker announced on Sept. 10 that he had fathered a baby outside of his marriage to Jordyn Blum, which came as a major shock to his fans.
In a brief but shocking statement, he revealed he is working to regain his wife’s “trust” after an affair led to the arrival of a new baby girl into their family.
“I recently became a father to a newborn daughter, born outside of my marriage,” he wrote on Instagram on Tuesday.
“I love my wife and children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and win their forgiveness.”
Grohl concluded his message by saying that he and his family are “grateful for your thoughts for all of our kids” as they “move forward together.”
Who is the other woman?
The singer did not reveal any information about the newborn’s mother in his post. However, he vowed to give this newborn baby the same support as he gives all his other children.
“I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her,” he said in his announcement.
Dave has already become a father to girls 3 times. He has three children with his wife Jordan: Violet May, Harper Willow and Ophelia Saint, whom they welcomed in 2006, 2009 and 2014 respectively.
So far, none of his daughters or wife have made any statement about his love affair or new baby.
Dave has always been proud of his family, and has lamented in the past how much he missed his children while on tour.
“I used to be on tour nine months out of the year,” he told Time in 2009. “Now I don’t like being away from my kids for more than 12 days.”
“It’s changed everything I do. When you have kids, you look at life differently. You feel love more deeply and are maybe a little more compassionate. It’s inevitable that this carries over into your songwriting.”
Dave Grohl’s marriage: Is it over?
Dave and his wife married on August 2, 2003, at their home in Los Angeles.
The guitarist and the former model first met at the Sunset Marquis Whiskey Bar in 2001.
Since the news is still fresh, it remains to be seen if the divorce talks materialise or not.
But history repeats itself; he divorced his first wife, Jennifer Lee Youngblood, in 1997 after she admitted to infidelity. This marriage may end just like the first one.
In a 2007 interview with Elle, Grohl revealed that he stopped calling Blum after a few first dates.
“When I first met my wife, we went on a few dates and I decided I wasn’t ready for a serious relationship, so I stopped calling,” he said.
However, he changed his mind as time went by.
“Three months later I had a revelation and I called her back. She picked up the phone and said, ‘Oh, I never thought I’d hear from you again,'” he recalled.
