Grohl’s actress ex has labelled him a “scumbag” and a “serial cheater” amid revelations he fathered a secret child outside his marriage.

Dave Grohl has been a “pretender” for years, according to his ex-girlfriend.

US actress Kari Wuhrer spoke to TMZ Thursday about her ex fathering a baby outside his marriage to Jordyn Blum, alleging to have heard “rumblings” about the Foo Fighter frontman’s alleged infidelity for years.

The model, 57, was romantically linked to Grohl, 55, in the 1990s, but claims she was unaware he was in a relationship at the time with US snowboarder Tina Basich.

“I never heard about her,” she said to the outlet. “He never spoke of it.”

In fact, Wuhrer claimed that she was the one who accidentally “let the cat out of the bag” when she called into the Howard Stern Show to complain about the Nirvana drummer yelling at her.

Basich, now 55, broke up with Grohl after finding out about his alleged romance with Wuhrer on the radio show — and Wuhrer claimed to have never heard from the rocker again.

When the exes unwittingly ran into each other years later while taking their children to a play centre, he allegedly “would just look at [her] like [she] didn’t exist.”

Wuhrer added, “I just felt like I knew he was scumbag after that.”

A rep for Grohl did not immediately return our request for comment.

Grohl’s love life has been under the microscope since he admitted to welcoming a love child in an Instagram statement last week.

“I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness,” the Grammy winner wrote of Blum and their daughters — Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.

While he has yet to divulge further details, Grohl’s rep did deny a social media user’s viral claim that she is the mother of his infant daughter.

Unlike Wuhrer, Grohl’s other ex, US musician Jennifer Finch, defended him in the wake of the bombshell, gushing to TMZ about his family dynamic.

However, a source told People that “Dave’s flirty behaviour has been a hurdle in their marriage” and “hurtful to Jordyn.”

The couple are understood to be working on their marriage in the wake of Grohl welcoming a love child.

While the insider claimed Blum “was shocked when she found out about the baby,” a source claimed to The Post that Blum’s friends believe the 48-year-old “knew” her husband was cheating.

She stepped out for the first time post-cheating scandal on Tuesday to play tennis for four hours — and sans wedding ring — with her tennis coach, Christopher Crabb.

Grohl was allegedly “jealous” of Blum’s bond with her married instructor, according to reports.

The rocker was previously married to photographer Jennifer Youngblood from 1994 until 1997, with the duo calling it quits over his alleged “admitted infidelities.”

He married Blum in 2003.
