Dave Grohl’s wife, Jordyn Blum, is ditching the bling.
The 48-year-old was spotted without her wedding ring weeks before the Foo Fighters frontman, 55, announced that he cheated on her and welcomed a child out of wedlock.
Blum opted not to wear her engagement ring while out in Los Angeles in early August.
Blum and Grohl walked together as the artist smoked a cigarette while his other half remained on her phone.
On Wednesday, a source told People that Grohl had retained a divorce lawyer before he released his statement.
The Foo Fighters frontman revealed his infidelity in a social media post on Tuesday, writing, “I’ve recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage.”
“I 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,” added Grohl.
The musician concluded his statement with a plea to the public: “We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together.”
A rep for Grohl told The Post that the rocker had no additional comments at this time.
The “Learn To Fly” singer tied the knot with Blum, 48, a former model and MTV producer, at their Los Angeles home on August 2, 2003.
The star-studded guest list included Clive Davis and Grohl’s former Nirvana bandmate Krist Novoselic.
The couple, who has been married for 21 years, share three daughters, Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.
The marriage was Blum’s first and Grohl’s second.
He was married to photographer Jennifer Youngblood from 1994 to 1997.
Meanwhile, Violet appears to have deactivated her Instagram account amid news that her dad fathered a fourth child; however, it’s unclear when she first shut down the page.
The father-daughter duo were spotted together at the 2023 Glastonbury Festival in June 2023 when Grohl brought his oldest child on the stage to perform a song from his band’s latest album, “But Here We Are.”
“My favorite singer in the world,” he said while Violet stood next to him.
“This is a song I wrote for my mother, Violet’s grandmother. This is ‘Show Me How.’”
As the vocalists finished up their song, Grohl screamed, “That’s my girl!”
“I love it when you’re on stage with your daughter and you hit a bad note,” he teased to the crowd as they erupted in applause.
Violet Maye, now one of Grohl’s four daughters, was named after the artist’s grandmother.
Although their family has stayed mainly out of the spotlight, they posed together on the red carpet at the 2023 Grammys.
But Grohl has been vocal about their family unit from time to time.
“Jordyn and Violet are anchors that keep me from completely disappearing,” he told The Guardian in 2007.
Reflecting on how his priorities shifted after having kids, Grohl told TIME in 2010, “I used to tour nine months out of the year. Now I don’t like being away from my kids for more than 12 days.”
“It’s changed everything that I do,” he continued.
“When you have kids, you see life through different eyes. You feel love more deeply and are maybe a little more compassionate. It’s inevitable that that would make its way into your songwriting.”
News that the former Nirvana drummer and Blum were expecting Violet was accidentally leaked by Grohl’s former bandmate, the late Taylor Hawkins.
“We’re going to be touring Europe in January and February, but we’ve got to be home by March, because Dave and his wife are having a baby,” he told MTV in 2006.
“But I probably wasn’t supposed to tell you that.”
Police say foreign national who allegedly attacked baby with hot coffee in Brisbane park has fled the country
A foreign national alleged to have poured boiling coffee on a baby boy in a Brisbane park last month fled the country as little as 12 hours before investigators could confirm his identity, police say.
Nine-month-old baby Luka was seriously burned in the attack at Stones Corner on August 27 as he sat with his mum on a picnic rug, with another mother and her baby, and has undergone multiple surgeries.

On Monday, police said the 33-year-old man was in New South Wales on August 28, and flew out of Sydney airport on August 31.
Detective Inspector Paul Dalton said the man left the country on his own passport, a day before police confirmed his identity.
A warrant has been obtained for acts intending to cause grievous bodily harm, which carries a possible life sentence.
In the days after it happened, police described it as “almost like an ambush”.
Police have released CCTV of the man.
Family ‘devastated’
The baby’s mother and father, who spoke shortly after the press conference, said they were “devastated” to hear the man had fled.
“It sounds like they were very, very close in catching him, and this obviously means that we’re going to have to wait who knows how long to get justice for our son,” she said.
She said she’d been living in “fear, anxiety, stress” since it happened.

“I had no idea where this person was, I didn’t want to leave this hospital because it became our safe space,” she said.
“Returning home I had panic attacks, and still continue to do so. I do feel relief that he’s not in this country, in some sense, but I will always have fear and anxiety being out in public with my son. It’s affected my mental health for the rest of my life.”
She said she felt “immense sadness” for her son and the pain he felt that day and continues to feel.
The boy’s parents provide an update on the boy’s recovery.
“It should be a happy, joyful time. I’m a first-time mum and he’s taken that away from me,” she said.
Detective Inspector Dalton said the accused was “aware of police methodologies” and had been “conducting counter-surveillance activities”.
This “made the investigation quite complex”, he said.
“This is probably one of the most complex and sometimes frustrating investigations I’ve had to be involved in and lead,” he said.
Asked about countersurveillance, Detective Inspector Dalton said the man was “aware of what we do to find people”.
But police “can find no motive”, he said.

“There’s not many investigations where you don’t get a clear motive. It’s strange,” Detective Inspector Dalton said.
He said releasing the man’s name, or where he had fled to could put the investigation at risk.
Man has travelled in and out of Australia since 2019
Detective Inspector Dalton said the first name given to police was incorrect.
“It wasn’t until the first of September that we were able to put a name to the face in the CCTV. Even at that stage, we probably didn’t have enough evidence to obtain a warrant,” he said.
“We’ve since been to New South Wales and Victoria to gather that information, and the warrant has been granted.”

Detective Inspector Dalton said the man had been in and out of Australia since 2019 and had been “lawful” each time.
“There’s no adverse holdings that we can find on him in Australia,” Detective Inspector Dalton said.
He said the man had been in Australia under a visa and had addresses “across the eastern seaboard” but not Queensland.

Those included addresses in the outer suburbs of Sydney and Victoria.
The man, who was described at the time as 30 to 40-years-old, with proportionate build and tanned skin, was captured by several CCTV cameras.
Asked if airports had been alerted, Detective Inspector Dalton said the footage was shared with “a whole range of state and federal jurisdictions”.
Recovery will take years
The boy’s father said the child was in “good spirits”.
He said his son had undergone a “pre-skin graft” procedure on Monday to encourage healing, but may still need further skin grafts on his neck and his chest.
The baby’s parents say his recovery will take years
“He was walking around the ward just before, he doesn’t want to sit stil,” he said.
The parents said the baby’s recovery would take years.
“It’s not just those surgeries, afterward it’s laser, needling, massage, making sure movement isn’t affected,” his mother said.

‘We’ll keep going until we find him’
Detective Inspector Dalton said police had interviewed the man’s former colleagues, but had not identified any family members in Australia.
He did not rule out sending Queensland detectives overseas to investigate.
“I promised the beginning … is that we’ll keep going until we find him,” Detective Dalton said.
“I’ve got 30 detectives working for me. They’re devastated that they missed this person by 12 hours, I think.”
Detective Inspector Dalton said police hadn’t found where the man was staying in Brisbane, but that they were “certainly satisfied that he was in the area after the offence”.
He said the man travelled to Sydney by car and police were looking for that vehicle, which is believed to be in NSW.
He said the man did not appear to work in any way with law enforcement but was an “itinerant” worker who had been employed in Queensland, NSW and Victoria.
“The QPS [Queensland Police Service] are fully committed to doing everything we possibly can lawfully, to get this person back here to face justice,” Detective Inspector Dalton said.
“There’s still that appeal out there to the public. People may feel safe now that this person has fled Australia, to actually come forward to police.
“I encourage them to do that. There’ll be no judgement on you whatsoever.”
