Dave Grohl (pic) is getting honest about his infidelity, again.
The Foo Fighters lead singer and guitarist revealed that he recently welcomed a baby girl, but not with his wife, Jordyn Blum. He announced in a statement shared to Instagram that his newest child was “born outside of my marriage.”
“I plan to be a loving supportive parent to her,” Grohl said in his Tuesday missive, which did not reveal more details about his newborn daughter’s birth, nor her mother.
Grohl reassured his Instagram fans that “I love my wife and my children” and that he is “doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.” Blum and Grohl married in 2003. They share three children.
Tuesday’s post was not the first time the Grammy winner came clean about an extramarital affair.
In a 2007 interview with the Guardian, the rocker, now 55, admitted that his infidelity led to his divorce from his first wife, Jennifer Youngblood, in 1997. They were married for three years. The British outlet also reported that the Grohl-Youngblood divorce was a factor in guitarist Pat Smear’s decision to leave the Foo Fighters. Smear and Youngblood had been close friends, but Smear eventually reconciled with Grohl and rejoined the band.
Grohl concluded his statement informing his Instagram followers — he has 1.4 million of them — that he wants to work things out with all parties involved.
“We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together,” he said. – Los Angeles Times/Tribune News Service
