While some are quick to judge, others have taken to the internet to express their disbelief over Grohl’s choices. “Of COURSE his wife is already too pretty for him,” one user scoffed. Another echoed, “His wife is HOT. Who could top that?”

Another bluntly added, “His wife is stunning!” while another comment simply stated, “His wife is hot.” But the internet, as always, has its harsher critics too. Some are calling for Blum to make a clean break. “I hope she divorces him,” one commenter urged, while another sympathized, “She doesn’t deserve to be embarrassed like this.”

As the scandal continues to unravel, Grohl hasn’t shied away from addressing the situation. In a raw and emotional Instagram post, the rock icon admitted to the affair. He revealed that he recently welcomed a daughter outside his marriage.
Yet, the weight of his words couldn’t be commented on, as Grohl swiftly disabled the comment section, likely avoiding the inevitable online firestorm. Their daughters have understandably deactivated their Instagram accounts amid the scandal.

Fans who have followed the Foo Fighters frontman and his wife, Blum, are grappling with the revelations. Many are left wondering how this rockstar love story will survive in the face of betrayal.
Despite the storm brewing around them, Grohl and Blum have long been known as a couple that shines in the spotlight. They often make glamorous appearances at high-profile events.

One of their most recent public outings was in 2023. Along with their three daughters—Violet, Harper, and Ophelia—they graced the red carpet at the 65th Annual GRAMMY Awards in Los Angeles. The family, dressed to impress, confidently strode down the red carpet, embodying the image of unity.

The couple also stunned at the 2014 Vanity Fair Oscar Party and made a memorable appearance at the 88th Annual Academy Awards in 2016. Not to mention, they also wowed at the 58th GRAMMY Awards earlier that same year.

Yet, beneath the glitz and glamor, the couple’s relationship had deeper, more intimate layers. In a candid 2008 interview, Grohl reflected on his song “Statues” and its haunting lyrics, “Time will turn us into statues eventually.”
When asked if he was hinting at the possibility of someone immortalizing him with a statue, Grohl dismissed the notion with a laugh. He explained that the song was actually inspired by his bond with Jordyn Blum.

For him, there was nothing more beautiful than the idea of a husband and wife being remembered side by side for eternity. Their gravestones side by side in a quiet cemetery. He emphasized that the lyrics had nothing to do with the infamous Nirvana statue, quickly brushing off that interpretation.

As Grohl now finds himself in the midst of a scandal that has captured the internet’s attention, fans can’t help but look back at these moments — times when the couple stood strong and unified. Whether they can withstand this latest storm is a question only time will tell.
