Dave Grohl’s wife Jordyn Blum appeared to have already ditched her wedding ring by the time he announced he had fathered a child outside of their marriage. 

The Foo Fighters icon, 55, shocked fans this week when he posted a statement to Instagram revealing he had cheated on his wife of 21 years, with the affair producing a baby girl. 

In his post, Dave said he ‘loved’ his wife and their three children and hoped to reconcile the broken relationships. 

However, it seems there may have been tension between the couple several weeks before the announcement, as Jordyn, 48, was pictured not wearing her wedding ring during an outing with her rockstar husband. 

The estranged couple were snapped walking together in Los Angeles, California on August 1 with Jordyn’s ring finger on her left hand noticeably bare. Dave puffed on a cigarette while Jordyn scrolled through her phone and, perhaps hinting at marital stress, they seemed to keep their distance with a sizeable gap between them. 

Her wedding ring was visible when they attended Wimbledon together the previous month.

It’s not known when Jordyn learned of her husband’s infidelity but a source has since alleged to People that Dave hired a divorce lawyer not long before sharing his news.

In his statement, the former Nirvana drummer said: ‘I’ve recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside 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 added: ‘We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together.’ 

Dave and Jordyn have been married for 21 years after tying the knot in 2003. They went on to welcome three daughters; Violet Maye, 18, Harper Willow, 15, and Ophelia Saint, 10.

Opening up on first meeting Jordyn in 2001, the Best Of You hitmaker told Elle in 2007: ‘When I first met my wife, we went out on a few dates and I decided that I wasn’t ready for a serious relationship, so I just stopped calling. 

‘After three months, I had a revelation and called her back. She picked up the phone and said, “Oh, I never thought I’d hear from you again”.’ 

In one of their last public appearances together, Dave and Jordyn were seen attending Wimbledon together, where the rocker had an awkward encounter with a reporter whose questions he refused to answer. 

Since the reveal that their father has another baby, his teenage daughters have deactivated their own social accounts.
