As per a source close to Blum, the interior designer, has known “for a while” about Grohl’s baby news.
“She was shocked when she found out about the baby. Her friends are like family, and they rallied around her,” says another Blum friend.
Over the years, “Dave’s flirty behavior has been a hurdle in their marriage. It’s been hurtful to Jordyn,” added the Blum source.
While Grohl’s fans were shocked by his baby news, some in the couple’s circle weren’t entirely surprised.
“We keep reading over and over again how heartbroken everyone is because Dave was supposed to be the ‘good guy,’ the rockstar that didn’t have to do those rockstar things,” says a source who knows the couple. “And people are crazy about the guy, but there is a rockstar side.”
