Dave Grohl’s wife Jordyn Blum leaning on friend Kate Hudson amid rocker’s love child scandal

Dave Grohl’s heartbroken wife Jordyn Blum is reportedly being consoled by a major Hollywood star as the fallout of his love child scandal continues.

Dave Grohl denies claims about identity of new baby

Kate Hudson has reportedly been consoling Dave Grohl’s wife, Jordyn Blum, after he admitted to fathering a child with another woman earlier this week.

“[Hudson] was surprised and disgusted that at Dave’s age he’s still cheating on not only Jordyn, but their girls too,” a source told the Daily Mail on Thursday.

The Foo Fighters frontman, 55, and Blum have been married since 2003 and share three daughters: Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.

The insider also alleged Hudson, 45, sent Blum a huge basket of balloons with personalised phrases on them including ‘Stay Strong’ to cheer her up.

“Kate told Jordyn she’s there for her 24/7 and not to hesitate to pick up the phone even if it’s for a good cry or if she needs her to come over for a hug and a heart to heart,” the individual added.

“Kate would stay with her in a heartbeat if she asked.”

Blum leads a very private life, so not much is known about her friendship with the “Almost Famous” star. They were photographed together in February 2023 at the Adidas Stella McCartney Party in Los Angeles.

A rep for Hudson did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment.

Grohl floored fans when he admitted to welcoming a daughter with someone other than Blum via Instagram earlier this week.

“I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her,” he said about his newborn.

He added, “I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.”

Though Grohl had a reputation in the rock world as a stand-up guy, this was not his first time cheating on a partner.

He admitted he and his first wife, photographer Jennifer Youngblood, divorced in 1997 because of his infidelities during a 2007 chat with the Guardian.

Furthermore, in her 2003 memoir, “Pretty Good for a Girl: The Autobiography of a Snowboarding Pioneer,” snowboarder Emily Basich claimed he cheated on her during their two-year romance in the ’90s.

Plus, a 35-year-old named Alix claimed to Page Six on Thursday that Grohl called her his “future ex-wife” in 2013 while he was married to Blum.

The rocker previously revealed in an interview that he used that line on his wife when they first met.

The former Nirvana drummer’s ex Jennifer Finch came to his rescue on Thursday, however, and assured TMZ that he is a caring person and wants nothing more than to make things right with his wife and their daughters.

Grohl was forced to speak out again on Thursday after an individual posted a snapshot of a newborn baby on Instagram and claimed it was his. He denied it was.

It’s unclear where his marriage to Blum stands. Though he claims to want to save their relationship, People reported Wednesday that he hired a divorce lawyer before he announced the birth of his new baby.

Blum also recently went without her wedding ring during an outing in Los Angeles alongside her husband.
