It's absolutely ridiculous. Open marriages are not common no matter how much these alternative polyamory/polygamous people want to try to make them mainstream.


"Trying to rebuild the trust of my wife and kids" certainly is not the talk of an 'open marriage'.

Having a baby outside of your marriage and making your kids have some half-sibling while still married to their birth mom is just nasty Jerry Springer type stuff.

Fwiw, Grohl is highly unattractive and a drunk. He obviously was stupid to get duped into the oldest gold-digger play in the book.


Eh, I don't think it's about saying open marriages are common or mainstream. It's about saying that a women married to a drinking rockstar is not a damsel in distress who believes her husband is traveling the world and drinking heavily while remaining faithful to her. It almost feels to me like the people painting her as this devastated, downtrodden woman are calling her stupid. Like she's some trad wife who sat at home batting her eyelashes while Dave Grohl walked all over her.



You are saying that you would be ok with your dh cheating on you and having a baby outside your marriage. Notice no one is saying she is a weak flower! But, even strong people can be devastated by betrayal. Until they announce that they have an open marriage it is assumed that it was a traditional marriage in that they both said they would 'forsake all others' and not have children with other men or women.

How can you be this dense and insensitive?


No, I didn't say this at all.

But I guess the joke is on me for trying to have civil discourse on the internet in 2024.

You're right, you're so right, your opinion on what marriage means and only that is the correct one. I will crawl back into my hovel as the dense, insensitive person I am. You have shamed me oh righteous one, bravo.


Well if you wanted to have a civil discourse you would have explained what you meant instead of giving up. Just because Jordyn isn't a trad wife doesn't mean that she can be devastated that her marriage is over. Even if she stays with him there is always a 'before' the betrayal and after.

If calling you out as being insensitive and 'dense' than maybe you are the sensitive flower? hmmm

His wife is going to walk away with $100M in assets.


Wouldn’t they have a prenup?


Foo Fighters have released 11 albums and compilations since their wedding in 2003. Plus all the touring and merch revenue since 2003.

California is community property state, aka 50/50 split on assets acquired and revenue generated during the marriage. Further, California divorce law gives more to a spouse in a "long term marriage" of more than 10 years.

California divorce judges void and set aside prenups all the time. California has very strict rules about prenuptial agreements.

How did Kevin Costner’s wife get so little then?

She signed a really bad prenup.


How do you know there isn't one here? It wasn't exactly a marriage of equals

There’s absolutely no way she didn’t know he was sleeping around. She can’t possibly be that stupid. If they get divorced, it’ll be because whatever understanding was governing their marriage didn’t include a baby with the side chick.

I feel more for their 3 kids.

I wonder if she just found out or if she knew before about the baby.

Staring down one’s mortality leads to really irresponsible consequences often.


It has nothing to do with mortality. It has to do with men and young pu**y. Women will never understand what it does to them.

It’s pretty clear it was a coordinated thing because the statement hit his Instagram and his 2 daughters who had Instagram accounts closed them, all in a matter of minutes.

If his wife leaves him (which she should unless she wants stds), he will do this again. I expect more babies. She needs to secure her kids financial future and find real commitment while she still can and before his career tanks or he gets aids.


I think he is an alcoholic as well. He looks unhealthy lately and I’m sure all the “life” of road living and rock will catch up quickly.


He is. His drinking has picked up recently. You can tell by the slurring in some of his interviews. It's talked about a lot in his subreddit

He seems to be wracking up a lot of negatives lately.

He hasn’t done an interview since Taylor Hawkins died 2.5 years ago. But yes — he drinks and smokes a ton.

To be honest, I’m glad his mother isn’t alive to see this. She seemed like a nice woman.

The New York Post is reporting that the divorce lawyer had been retained before the announcement was made. Grohl isn’t expecting the marriage to survive, unless he was planning to dump the wife for the baby mama.

Doubt he’ll marry the baby mama. My guess is Jordyn told him she’s done.

I agree with this. I’m a fan and I read Dave’s book. He is a huge man child and Jordyn has put up with so much over the years.

When I read it in the book there were so many incidents that reminded me of my husband‘s college roommate. But he was a college kid! Who eventually grew up. With Dave it comes off as very goofy and lovable and fun. Which is why so many people are disappointed.

But yeah, I think ultimately after 25 years his wife knows what she is dealing with. I’m sure this is very hurtful and she doesn’t deserve this, but she is probably not all that shocked.

I’ll add that I’m not convinced this is a new baby. There is some speculation that the child is a little bit older, but I could be wrong.

Read a comment that really struck a chord:
Dave dropped this bit of info a few hours before the debate. He knew it would get drowned out of the news by the debate and then he got lucky with TS endorsement sucking up all the oxygen. His kids social media accounts were deactivated within minutes. Comments deactivated on Grohl's and FF's social media pages. And then Dave took down his Instagram account last night.

I was wondering why he'd go public on Tuesday, rather than a Friday afternoon at 4pm (per usual with bad news).

This sh#t was highly coordinated.
