Dave Grohl, lead for the rock band Foo Fighters, has denied a viral social media post about his child. Grohl, 55, recently shared news of a child born out of marriage. He confessed that he cheated on his wife, Jordyn Blum. They already have three children together: Violet, Harper and Ophelia.
Shortly after he told his fans about his new daughter, a post appeared online. It seemed to show his baby, named Roxie Junie Grohl. But a spokesperson for Grohl insists the post is untrue, and these are not pictures of his new child.
Little information about his new baby or the mother has been revealed. Grohl only emphasised that the viral post on Instagram was a fake. The rock star met his wife in 2001. They have been married since 2003 and live in Los Angeles with their children.
