Dave Grohl has been married to Jordyn Blum, a model and TV producer, since 2003. Notably, this is Grohl's second marriage, having previously been married to photographer Jennifer Leigh Youngblood from 1994 to 1997. In the past, Grohl has acknowledged being unfaithful during his first marriage. The couple has three daughters together: Violet Maye (born 2006), Harper Willow (born 2009), and Ophelia Saint (born 2014).
In July, the couple attended Wimbledon, where they were seated in the royal box alongside other notable figures, including David Beckham. The family also made a rare public appearance together at the 2023 Grammys, where they posed for photos on the red carpet.
Meanwhile, fans of the singer were left shocked and heartbroken at the confession. One user wrote, ''You were meant to be one of the good guys!'' Another commented, ''Man #DaveGrohl you were someone I used to hold in high regard.''
A third wrote, ''If you're surprised that a rock star, who happens to be the lead singer/drummer of 2 of the most famous rock bands in the world, wasn't faithful to his wife, then I have beachfront land in Vegas to sell you.''
A fourth added, ''Disappointed in #DaveGrohl. Thought he was one of the few good guys. I don't want to hear that oh he lost his mum & his best mate. We all have shit to deal with - it doesn't drive us to s**g someone outside our relationship. Feel sorry for his wife & kids. There goes my hero.''
