Foo Fighters’ Dave Grohl admits cheating on wife as he reveals fathering secret baby

Dave Grohl has revealed he’s cheated on his wife and fathered a secret child.

His astonishing confession was published via social media where he revealed he had welcomed a new child and was in the process of begging his wife for forgiveness. The 55-year-old music star – who is widely regarded as one of the nicest stars in the music business – also appeared to be desperate to retain his credibility in the eyes of his fans.

Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, the Foo Fighters icon said: “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.”

Dave added: “We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together. Dave.” He also switched off the comments on the post, meaning fans could not directly react to his bombshell. However, his two eldest daughters, Violet and Harper appear to have reacted. Both have deleted their Instagram accounts since Dave shared his infidelity scandal.
