Who Is Dave Grohl's Wife? All About Jordyn Blum

Dave Grohl and his wife, Jordyn Blum, have been together for over 20 years.

The Foo Fighters frontman and Blum got married in a ceremony held at their Los Angeles home on Aug. 2, 2003. The wedding was attended by music industry legends like Clive Davis and Grohl's former Nirvana bandmate Krist Novoselic.

Since their nuptials, the former Nirvana drummer and Blum have welcomed three daughters: Violet, born in 2006; Harper, born in 2009; and Ophelia, born in 2014. In September 2024, Grohl revealed on Instagram that he'd welcomed a fourth child, a girl, "born outside of my marriage."

He wrote in a statement, "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. We're grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together."

Blum has remained incredibly private throughout her relationship with Grohl, and little is known about the rock star's wife. However, the musician has occasionally opened up about his family in interviews. In 2007, Grohl told The Guardian, "[My wife] Jordyn and [daughter] Violet are anchors that keep me from completely disappearing."

Here's everything to know about Dave Grohl's wife, Jordyn Blum.

She's worked as a model and a TV producer

Long before she met Grohl, Blum worked as a model, appearing on the cover of 'Teen and shooting makeup campaigns. One particular issue of 'Teen revealed that Blum was discovered in a supermarket when she was 12 years old.

According to a Spin article on the Foo Fighters, Blum moved on from modeling to become a producer at MTV, which is where she was working when she eventually met Grohl.

They met in 2001

Grohl and the former model initially met at the Sunset Marquis Whiskey Bar in 2001, however, their relationship didn't get off to the best start. In a 2007 interview with ELLE, the rock star said, "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."

However, Grohl had a change of heart, revealing, "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.' "

She's collaborated on more than one Foo Fighters project

​​Blum seems to stay out of the spotlight in her day-to-day life, but the former MTV producer did make an appearance in one of Grohl's music videos. In the video for "White Limo," — a track on the Foo Fighters' 2011 album Wasting Light — Blum can be seen alongside late Motörhead frontman, Lemmy Kilmister. Blum also co-directed the band's 2002 Walking a Line music video, which features behind-the-scenes footage of the Foo Fighters on tour. In fact, a 2003 NME article even referenced Blum as the official "documentarian" for the band.

The former model has also inspired several of her husband's songs. In a January 2008 interview with GQ, Grohl discussed a track called "Statues," on his band's sixth studio album Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace. The Grammy winner shared, "That song is about my wife and me. To me there's nothing more beautiful than seeing the headstones of a husband and wife side by side in a graveyard."

In 2006, Grohl revealed that Blum had inspired the song "Burn Away," telling The A.V. Club, "I was in love with my future wife and had some romantic ... prom ballad."

She shares three children with Grohl

In January 2006, Grohl's late bandmate Taylor Hawkins accidentally revealed that the lead singer of the Foo Fighters was about to become a father for the first time. In an interview with MTV.com, Hawkins said, "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. But I probably wasn't supposed to tell you that." The couple's first daughter, Violet Maye, who was named after Grohl's grandmother, was born on April 15, 2006.

These days, Violet is a singer and occasionally performs with her father. At the 2023 Glastonbury Festival in June 2023, Grohl introduced Violet as his "favorite singer in the world" before she joined him on stage to sing "Show Me How."

In February 2009, Grohl announced to Rolling Stone that he and Blum were expecting their second child. Daughter Harper Willow Grohl arrived on April 17, 2009, and was named after the drummer's great uncle ​​Harper Bonebrake. In a statement released at the time, Grohl revealed that baby Harper was "7 lbs. 8 oz., 20-inches long and loud as hell."

In April 2014, the Grohls announced that their third child was on the way, after the musician was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The couple's youngest daughter, Ophelia Saint Grohl, was born on Aug. 1, 2014.

On Sept. 10, 2024, Grohl announced on Instagram he had welcomed a baby girl outside of his marriage to Blum.

Her appendix burst while Grohl was on TV

During an August 2018 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Grohl revealed that Blum had ended up being rushed to the hospital while Grohl was standing in for Kimmel on an earlier episode.

"It's true," Grohl told the talk show host. "I got a text from her, 'I don't really feel so good.' Then I walk offstage after it was done and she's like, 'I'm on my way to the hospital to get my appendix out.' "

Luckily, Grohl's hosting gig didn't prevent him from being by Blum's side when she had surgery. "I ran down there, and got there in time. She's great," Grohl explained.

She attended the 2023 Grammys with Grohl and their daughters

Blum made a rare public appearance with Grohl and their daughters for the 2023 Grammy Awards, where the family posed for photos together on the red carpet.

Blum wore a short, black sequined dress while Grohl sported an all-black ensemble. Meanwhile, the couple's eldest daughter Violet rocked a blazer dress and knee-high boots; Harper donned a floral dress with lug sole boots; and Ophelia wore a floaty ombré dress that she accessorized with a gold purse.

She and Grohl attended Wimbledon 2024

The couple were spotted attending London's Wimbledon tennis tournament in July 2024. Blum and Grohl sat in the coveted Royal Box seats alongside several celebrities, including David Beckham.

Grohl cheated on Blum

In September 2024, shortly after the couple were seen together at Wimbledon, Grohl revealed that he'd been unfaithful to Blum and welcomed a daughter with another woman.

"She was shocked when she found out about the baby. Her friends are like family, and they rallied around her," a close friend of Blum's told PEOPLE. "Dave's flirty behavior has been a hurdle in their marriage. It's been hurtful to Jordyn."

Despite Grohl's infidelity, the couple decided to spend the holidays together with their daughters. In December 2024, a source told PEOPLE, "They are all spending Christmas as a family."

The news came after a source confirmed to PEOPLE that Grohl was "no longer working with a divorce attorney."

“Dave’s been prioritizing his family,” the source said in November 2024. “He knows he messed up. It’s one of those situations where you don’t realize what you have until you’re about to lose it. He doesn’t want to lose his family.”
