For a few days now, the identity of Dave Grohl’s lover has been a hot topic on social media.
As you’ve no doubt heard, Grohl admitted to fathering a child with a woman who has not been his wife for over 20 years, Jordyn Blum.
When announcing the birth of his son on social media, the Foo Fighters frontman did not offer any information about the mother’s identity.
“I recently became a father to a new baby girl, born out of wedlock. I plan to be a loving and supportive father to her,” Grohl wrote on Instagram on Monday.
Grohl went on to admit that he had cheated on his wife and daughters and revealed that he plans to work hard to “regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.”
“We are grateful for your thoughtfulness toward all the children involved as we move forward together,” he concluded.
Identity of Dave Grohl’s lover: what do we know?
The identity of Grohl’s lover remains a mystery. But the gossip outlet DeuxMoi offered new information courtesy of a tip from an anonymous tipster.
“Dave is not living in the family home at the moment, but rather in a house that Jordyn recently renovated for her business,” the source writes.
“I can’t say the name of the new baby’s mother, but she was well known to Dave and Jordyn since 2017,” the source claims.
“Dave was not present at the birth, but he has been to see his new daughter several times. His other daughters have not yet met their sister.”
The source goes on to claim that Grohl has been “struggling” since the death of his friend and bandmate Taylor Hawkins in 2022.
But, the source says, “none of that can excuse what he did to his family” and “divorce is definitely looking like an option.”
The Beginning of the Rumors
DeuxMoi has long been considered one of the most reliable gossip outlets. And they were the first to report rumors that Grohl was cheating on his wife.
According to The mirrorthe site’s owner alleged in a 2023 podcast interview that Grohl had been unfaithful.
The revelation sparked a series of Reddit threads about Grohl’s alleged infidelity.
“This frontman, aka nice guy, who was once part of the most popular 90s band of all time, is not the perfect guy you think he is. I know him as someone who has had a muse/lover for years,” one user wrote.
“She was seen with him at various shows and events in different cities over the years. I can’t believe it was never publicized because they were so obvious.”
“I think it’s cooled down now but it was definitely going strong for a while. I wonder if his marriage is open? I’m sure this isn’t the only girl,” added another.
Grohl has been keeping a low profile this week for obvious reasons.
