Dave Grohl’s daughter deactivates IG account after his baby, cheating mess



Dave Grohl’s daughter has taken a step back from social media.

Violet, 18, appears to have deactivated her Instagram account amid news that her dad, 55, fathered a fourth daughter outside of his marriage.

On Tuesday, the rocker announced on Instagram that he recently welcomed a child with a woman outside of his marriage to his wife, Jordyn Blum, whom married in 2003.

As of Tuesday afternoon, Violet’s Instagram account remains deactivated, though it is unclear when she first shut down the page.

Along with Violet, Grohl shares two other daughters, Ophelia, 10, and Harper, 15, with Blum, 48, his wife of 21 years.

“I’ve recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage,” Grohl’s statement read.

“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,” he continued. “We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together.”

A rep for Grohl told The Post that there was no additional comment from the musician at this time. 

At the 2023 Glastonbury Festival in June 2023, the Foo Fighters singer brought his oldest child on the stage to perform a song from his band’s latest album, “But Here We Are.”

“My favorite singer in the world,” Grohl said while Violet stood next to him. “This is a song I wrote for my mother, Violet’s grandmother. This is ‘Show Me How.’”

As the father-daughter duo finished up the tune, the artist screamed, “That’s my girl!” 

“I love it when you’re on stage with your daughter and you hit a bad note,” he joked to the crowd as they erupted in applause.

The former drummer and Blum tied the knot in a ceremony held at the couple’s Los Angeles home on August 2, 2003. The star-studded guest list included Clive Davis and and Grohl’s former Nirvana bandmate Krist Novoselic.

The marriage was Blum’s first and Grohl’s second. The artist had been married to photographer Jennifer Youngblood. They divorced in 1997.

The couple has stayed mainly out of the spotlight as a family, but they stepped out together at the 2023 Grammys and posed on the red carpet.

Blum, a former model and MTV producer, has been mum about her marriage over the years, but Grohl has been vocal about their love from time to time.

“Jordyn and Violet are anchors that keep me from completely disappearing,” he told The Guardian in 2007.

The icon also reflected on how his career choices changed after having kids.

“I used to tour nine months out of the year. Now I don’t like being away from my kids for more than 12 days,” he told TIME in 2010.

“It’s changed everything that I do,” Grohl added. “When you have kids, you see life through different eyes. You feel love more deeply and are maybe a little more compassionate. It’s inevitable that that would make its way into your songwriting.”

News that the Foo Fighters frontman and Blum were expecting Violet was accidentally leaked by Grohl’s former bandmate, the late Taylor Hawkins.

“We’re going to be touring Europe in January and February, but we’ve got to be home by March, because Dave and his wife are having a baby,” Hawkins told MTV in 2006. “But I probably wasn’t supposed to tell you that.”

Violet Maye, now one of Grohl’s four daughters, was named after the artist’s grandmother.
