\n\t\t\tDave Grohl has made headlines for both his music career and his personal life through the years. Grohl rose to fame when he joined the band Nirvana in 1990. Four years later, lead singer Kurt Cobain died by suicide. In the months that followed, Grohl founded Foo Fighters. Off stage, the 19-time Grammy Award winner [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Soundside Music Festival would have been the Foo Fighters first gig since Grohl, 55, announced that he fathered a child out of wedlock<\/a>. (The band wrapped their Everything Or Nothing At All Tour<\/em><\/a> in Seattle on August 18.)<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage,\u201d Grohl shared via Instagram<\/a> on September 10. \u201cI 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.\u201d<\/p>\n

Grohl, who has been married to Jordyn Blum<\/strong><\/a> since 2003, added: \u201cWe\u2019re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n

Grohl and Blum, 48, share three daughters<\/a>: Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10. The guitarist has not revealed the identity of the woman he had an affair with, nor has he shared any more details about his fourth daughter.<\/p>\n

Blum, meanwhile, was spotted on September 17 without her wedding band<\/a>. Although Blum hasn\u2019t commented on the scandal, Grohl\u2019s past actions have been under a microscope since the infidelity came to light<\/a>.<\/p>\n
