In the latest twist that could rival the plot of a rock opera, Dave Grohl is hitting back at wild rumors claiming he has an undisclosed love child. The Foo Fighters frontman is setting the record straight after a tabloid made headlines with a story suggesting he fathered a child decades ago.
- Dave Grohl is fighting back
- He recently fathered a child outside his marriage
- A fake post had made the rounds
Dave's team jumped on it
Grohl, known for his legendary drumming with Nirvana and his powerhouse performances with Foo Fighters, has dismissed the claim as a total fabrication. In a statement that echoes his no-nonsense rock star persona, he called the claim “absurd” and “ridiculous.” Apparently, the only thing his fans should be concerned about is whether his next album will rock as hard as the last.
The controversy began when a tabloid ran a story featuring a person claiming to be Grohl’s long-lost child. The supposed child made some pretty bold assertions about their connection to the rock star. But Grohl, never one to let gossip hit a high note, wasted no time in refuting the claim.
The post read:
"My sweet Roxie Junie Grohl, being your mama has already been the most incredible experience of my life,” the caption began. “Every day, I fall more in love with you and this new role. Your daddy was by my side through the entire pregnancy, making sure we were both taken care of, and I’m so grateful for his love and support.”
Dave was probably thinking: “Let me clear this up before the next headline comes out about me allegedly starting a band with aliens,” Grohl quipped, showcasing his trademark humor amidst the drama. It’s clear he’s not about to let these unfounded rumors steal the spotlight from his music or his band.
His rep told TMZ the post was a complete fake. Dave had told fans his intentions of stepping up online:
As for the impact on his career? Grohl’s fans can rest easy knowing that his focus remains firmly on rocking out and making music. This latest brouhaha is unlikely to slow him down—after all, if there’s one thing Grohl knows how to handle, it’s the wild world of rock and roll.
In the meantime, Grohl’s camp is reportedly working on ensuring that this “love child” claim doesn’t hit any higher notes. As for the rest of us, we’ll just keep enjoying the music and laughing at the latest drama in the world of rock.
