The woman who gave birth to Dave Grohl’s love child has broken her silence five months after the bombshell news emerged, the woman has now shared her side of the story
The identity of Dave Grohl’s love child’s mother has been revealed, five months after he confessed to being unfaithful to his wife.
Jennifer Young, 38, revealed she shares a seven-month-old daughter with the Foo Fighters frontman, 56, but has admitted there is one thing she is not willing to share with the public regarding their child.
The Florida native, now residing in Los Angeles with her mother, disclosed to the New York Post’s Page Six that their baby girl, born on August 1 last year, carries Grohl’s surname. She is keeping her daughter’s first name under wraps due to “there’s some really angry fans” and emphasised the importance of “protecting her identity is really important”.
Often spotted strolling with her baby in California, the mum sports tattoos including Paul McCartney lyrics and the Metallica logo. In recently snaps, Jennifer’s daughter can be seen wearing a white safety helmet with Metallica and Lez Zeppelin stickers adorning it.
One of Jennifer’s former schoolmates described the new mum as “quiet” and admitted it was shocking to see her connected to rock star Grohl. “I feel like she was more into Gwen Stefani than the Foo Fighters,” they told Page Six.
Grohl, previously Nirvana’s drummer, acknowledged in September that he had fathered “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: Violet Maye, 18, Harper Willow, 15, and Ophelia Saint, 10.
Regarding the newborn, he stated: “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.” He vowed to be a part of his youngest child’s life but it’s not known how much contact he has with Jennifer’s baby.
The aftermath of this shocking revelation has undoubtedly been tough on former model Jordyn, who wed the rocker in 2003 at their LA residence. She has been seen without her wedding ring since the news emerged.
Before Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl tied the knot with Jordyn Blum, he was married to photographer Jennifer Youngblood. The marriage lasted from 1994 to 1997 and discussing his divorce two years later in 1999, Grohl candidly admitted, “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.”
Meanwhile, Grohl and Jordyn were spotted en route to the Super Bowl earlier this month, despite previous rumours of strain after a source claimed Jordyn was initially considering a divorce. Speaking to People, an insider shared, “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.”
