Grohl married his second wife, Jordyn Blum, in 2003. They share three daughters.
“I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness,” the musician continued. “We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward.”
Grohl was previously married to Jennifer Leigh Youngblood and has admitted to infidelity causing the end of their relationship.
Last summer, Foo Fighters released their first album after the death of drummer Taylor Hawkins in 2022. They have performed steadily since then via their Everything or Nothing at All? tour. Earlier this summer, he found himself at the center of a tiff with Taylor Swift, when he and the pop star performed in London on the same night.
“I know that she’s on her Eras Tour. I’m telling you, man, you don’t want to suffer the wrath of Taylor Swift,” he said as the crowd started booing.
He continued: “So we like to call our tour the Errors Tour” — the crowd cheered him at this point — “because I feel like, we’ve had more than a few eras and more than a few fucking errors as well. Just a couple. That’s because we actually play live. What?!” he added in mock indignation, turning away from the mic.
He then went on: “I’m just saying, you guys like raw, live rock ‘n’ roll music right? You came to the right fucking place.”
