Dave Grohl ghosted Jordyn Blum after they met in 2001:
The Foo Fighter revealed he met Blum at West Hollywood’s iconic Sunset Marquis Whiskey Bar in 2001; however, it was initially a bumpy road.
“When I first met my wife, we went out on a few dates and I decided that I wasn’t ready for a serious relationship, so I just stopped calling,” Grohl revealed in a 2017 interview with ELLE .
Months later, he changed his mind.
“After three months, I had a revelation and called her back. She picked up the phone and said, ‘Oh, I never thought I’d hear from you again,'” he shared.

Blum had to be rushed to the hospital after her appendix burst while Grohl was filling in as host for “Jimmy Kimmel Live.” He later revealed his wife’s health emergency while talking to Kimmel in an August 2018 appearance.
“It’s true,” Grohl told the late-night host. “I got a text from her, ‘I don’t really feel so good.’ Then I walk offstage after it was done and she’s like, ‘I’m on my way to the hospital to get my appendix out.'”
Despite his work commitment, Grohl didn’t miss her surgery.
“I ran down there, and got there in time. She’s great,” he explained.
