Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl admitted to cheating on his wife of 21 years last year – and now the mother of his seven month old love child has come forward
The mother of Dave Grohl ’s love child has finally been revealed, five months after he admitted to cheating on his wife. Jennifer Young said she has a seven-month-old baby girl with the Foo Fighters frontman, 56. The 38-year-old, who is from Florida but lives in Los Angeles with her mum, told the New York Post’s Page Six gossip column their daughter was born on August 1 last year and has Grohl’s surname.
She is not revealing her daughter’s first name because “there’s some really angry fans” and “protecting her identity is really important”. The mum, often seen walking with her baby in California, has tattoos including Paul McCartney lyrics and the Metallica logo. Grohl, formerly Nirvana’s drummer, confirmed in September he had become “the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage”.
Dave has three daughters with his wife of 21 years, TV producer Jordyn Blum, 48. They are Violet Maye, 18, Harper Willow, 15, and Ophelia Saint, 10.
He said of the new baby: “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.”
The fallout from the shocking revelation has no doubt been hard on former model Jordyn, who married the rocker in 2003 at their LA home. She has been spotted since the news broke without her wedding ring.
Before Jordan Grohl was married to photographer Jennifer Leigh Youngblood from 1994 to 1997. Discussing his divorce in 1999, Dave said, “I was 25, my wife was even younger. We weren’t ready to get married. I miss her a tonne, she’s the funniest goddamn weirdo you ever met in your life. Absolutely adorable. It would have been better had we not got married. But you live and you learn.”
He and Jordyn were seen on their way to the Super Bowl together earlier this month, after a source said she did not want the family to split.
A source told People: “It was just such a shock for Jordyn. Her first instinct was that she wanted a divorce. The betrayal felt too heavy. But as weeks passed, she got some space to think and it just felt very sad to her if the family would split up.”
