    "I've recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage ," the Foo Fighters leader said on Instagram. "I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her."

    Grohl, 55, is already a father to 18-year-old Violet, 15-year-old Harper and 10-year-old Ophelia. Their mother is his wife, Jordyn Blum.

    "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," he told Elle in 2007. "So I just stopped calling. 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.'"

    The couple married in 2003.

    So sad. Even good men can’t be trusted.
