Dave Grohl made ‘honesty’ confession before fathering secret child with other woman

Dave Grohl made a heartbreaking comment about honesty years before cheating on his wife.

The Foo Fighters frontman and ex-Nirvana drummer shocked fans on Tuesday (September 10) when he announced he’d welcomed a baby outside of his marriage and cheated on his wife. He vowed he was trying to rebuild trust with Jordyn Blum, with whom he’s been wed to for 21 years.

The couple tied the knot in 2003, two years after meeting at West Hollywood’s Sunset Marquis Whiskey Bar. Dave, 55, and Jordyn, 48, share three daughters, including Violet Maye, 18, Harper Willow, 15, and Ophelia Saint, 10.

But now an interview has resurfaced, in which he revealed Jordyn was “pretty much” the first person he’d been totally honest with. He made the remarks around the time of his engagement to Jordyn, a model and TV producer.

Dave spoke of how important honesty is in a relationship. He told Teen People: “Honesty is the best policy, whether it’s with a best friend or a girlfriend or a parent or whatever. As a kid, you don’t want to disappoint anybody and you don’t want to get found out, but people respect you more for your honesty than anything else.”

Asked whether Jordyn was the first person he’d been ‘truly honest with’, Dave admitted this was indeed the case. He added: “Pretty much. Now I’ve got nothing to hide. When you’re not trying to be someone else, being honest is easy.”

This comes as Dave reveals he’s welcomed a fourth daughter – with an unnamed woman who isn’t his wife. In a statement on Instagram, a post with comments turned off, Dave wrote: “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. 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.”

In a 2007 interview with The Guardian, Dave shared: “Jordyn and Violet are anchors that keep me from completely disappearing.” Daughter Violet, who joined her famous father on stage at Glastonbury, seems to have deleted her social media accounts (at the time of writing).
