Grohl made a raw and honest statement online, saying: "I've recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage. I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her."

He continued, expressing his love for his family: "I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We're grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together," as per the Daily Record.

Curiosity is mounting over who could possibly be the mother of Grohl's furtive child, reports the Mirror .

While Dave has boldly acknowledged his infidelity and his newborn daughter, he remains tight-lipped about any names, prompting widespread speculation. With Grohl refraining from disclosing further information, it's left admirers guessing if he ever plans on revealing the identities of the mother and this unexpected addition to his life.

Since making the shocking disclosure, Grohl has disabled the comment section of his Instagram post, cutting off any potential clues from that channel.

Dave has made it clear that he's determined to repair his relationship with Jordyn, his second wife, and has no intentions of leaving his 21-year marriage because of the woman carrying his child. He has vowed to be a "loving and supportive parent" to their soon-to-be-born daughter.

The news has been hard on his children, Violet Maye, 18, Harper Willow, 15, and Ophelia Saint, 10, who have understandably taken a break from social media since the revelation.

Has Dave Grohl cheated before?

Roughly a year ago, murmurs of Dave's infidelity began circulating after a Deuxmoi gossip source labeled him a 'pumpkin eater' slang for a cheater on a podcast episode. Reddit chatter echoed these allegations.

In September of 2023, an incognito tip-off claimed: "This frontman aka nice guy that was once in the most popular 90s band of all time isn't the perfect guy you think he is. I've known him to have a muse/lover for years."

The rumor mill suggests that this woman has remained out of the spotlight, hinting that the mother of Dave's forthcoming baby might not be recognizable to the public.

Despite his reputation as a quintessential family man and being dubbed 'the nicest man in rock,' Dave Grohl has shockingly acknowledged past infidelities. He admitted to cheating on his first wife, Jennifer Leigh Youngblood, during their three-year marriage.

This confession came with the bitter note that the breakup was so vitriolic, it led Foo Fighters' guitarist Pat Smear to take an eight-year break from the band after siding with Jennifer.

Dave Grohl opened up about his past marriage, saying: "I was 25, my wife was even younger. We weren't ready to get married. I miss her a ton, 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."

The post-divorce period saw Grohl linked to Louise Post of Veruca Salt, but their relationship hit the rocks after an infamous episode at an Australian concert in 1997, where a drunken Louise accused him on stage of cheating with actress Winona Ryder, a claim Dave Grohl has always refuted.

Adding fuel to the fire regarding Dave Grohl's colorful romantic history, a Reddit user shared an anecdote from working at a hotel in the early '90s when the Foo Fighters were touring, stating, "I worked at a hotel in the early 90s that the Foo Fighters stayed at for a few days off on their first tour. Grohl's first wife was with him and they were super lovey dovey. Yet, I was connecting random women to his hotel room phone. Was not shocked at that divorce."

As of now, Dave Grohl hasn't responded to these claims, but his representatives have been contacted for a statement.
