Grohl has been married to his 48-year-old spouse since 2003 and the pair are parents to daughters Violet Maye, 18, Harper Willow, 15, and Ophelia Saint, 10.

In a statement shared on the artist's Instagram, he 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," he continued.

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

It seems that Grohl's daughters, Harper and Violet, have reacted to his cheating confession by deleting their Instagram accounts.

When visiting the teens' page, a message appears that reads: "Sorry, this page isn't available. The link you followed may be broken, or the page may have been removed. Go back to Instagram."

Users have now reacted to the heartbreaking move on social media, with one person on X writing: "These men really do not think about the fallout for their children when they make these choices."

A second user commented that they don't blame the girls for deactivating their pages as they would "stay off the internet forever if my dad publicly announced his infidelity like that".

"I feel bad for both Dave Grohls daughters because they both deactivated on insta…his reputation is in the DUMPSTER omg," a third said, while a fourth added: "I can’t imagine what his daughters are going through."

"The love Violet and Harper showed publicly to their dad I am so sorry for them man and his wife god I am like in shock just as a fan," they also shared.

Blum is Grohl’s second wife. He was previously married to photographer Jennifer Youngblood. The pair divorced in 1997.

The 'All My Life' musician opened up about his family life in a 2007 interview with The Guardian, revealing that his wife and his oldest daughter Violet were “anchors that keep me from completely disappearing".

Two years later, Grohl gushed about how much he loves his children, and how he changed things in his career since becoming a father. "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 magazine.

“It’s changed everything that I do. 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," he added.

Grohl didn’t disclose any further details about the new baby or the mother of the child.
