A social media user with the handle @valeriegreyston shared a since-deleted photo Wednesday of a snuggly baby holding a mother’s hand with a lengthy caption claiming the tot belonged to the Foo Fighters frontman.

“My sweet Roxie Junie Grohl, being your mama has already been the most incredible experience of my life,” the post began. “Every day, I fall more in love with you and this new role.”
The netizen claimed Grohl was “by [her] side through the entire pregnancy,” saying she was “grateful for his love and support.”
However, a rep for Grohl, 55, was quick to tell TMZ later Wednesday that the child in the picture was not the rock star’s spawn.

Grohl shocked fans Tuesday when he announced via Instagram that he had welcomed a daughter with a mystery woman who is not his wife of 21 years.
“I’ve recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage,” he wrote, adding, “I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her.”
The former Nirvana drummer insisted he loves his wife and their three children and is doing everything possible to “regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.”

“We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together,” he added.
Grohl did not share the identity of the woman with whom he had the extramarital affair nor the name of his newborn.
