Apparently he has cheated on his wife and fathered a baby girl. Not the nicest man in rock after all.Wink

I am genuinely surprised at how not surprised I am!
I love Dave Grohl but I think Kathy Burke said "Men will fuck a ham sandwich given the opportunity" or something like that 😆

Changes her life to the tune of millions in child support…

Me, cynical..?

Aye if only the poor wee soul could have kept his knob in his pants, eh?

The poor menz. Powerless to resist the lady temptress who are just out to trap them and get their grubby paws on their millions.

JamesBlonde007 · 11/09/2024 08:18

I feel like he’s cheated on me.

oh Dave, dashed all hope as one of “the good ones” 😶

@Soldieringnonosoldiershere ewww is that a joke? He’s a very average looking creep.

You can say what you want, but the fact is, we know of two different women who find him attractive, which is unusual for most men. And no doubt there will be numerous other women who find him attractive too.

If he's an average looking creep, and if he's disgusting for having this affair, then why are numerous women attracted to him?

MONEY

Pedallleur · 11/09/2024 08:50

looks like he might be joining Noel in the 'I have a divorce looming' tour schedule. Rich, popular rock star is attractive to women - who knew?

@TheBers2024 Lemmy approached me in a goth nightclub once. It was in 1986, I was 16. He sat down next to me and said, "Are you here with anyone?". I squeaked out, "Yes", a bit nervously and he ambled off. His moles and general hairiness were quite alarming close up.

Genuinely I feel the same. I thought he was one of the good ones and this feels so personal. I suppose this is what my mum meant when she said don’t put celebrities on pedestals. It’s like Rolf Harris all over again 😭

ABirdsEyeView · 11/09/2024 09:27

Hadn't seen that interview with Lemmy. Gotta say, I respect his attitude - nothing wrong with chasing women, just don't do it in addition to getting married!

I don't think extra marital shags get pg to 'out' an affair, but I think some do it for the payday.
Look at how much KW is having to shell out to LG and he's nowhere near as rich as DG. You can hear the 'kerching' from here! Why else would a woman bring a baby into the world who will always be known as the product of an affair? Who is unlikely to ever be welcomed or even accepted by the father's wife and children (who he will inevitably stay with). The ow could have had a baby with virtually anyone else and instead she deliberately brings it into this shit show of a situation. It's beyond selfish. I can't help but think it's a money driven decision.

The wife should leave him - bad enough to cheat but he thought about his family so little that he didn't even protect them from his getting another woman pregnant. And has exposed his wife to HIV and all the other sti.

Exactly. Dave could have easily avoided this situation-by doing nothing.

We know nothing about the woman involved. I am not going to judge her.

Stinksmum · 11/09/2024 07:02

Yes, Google up Lisa Moorish. She seems to have made a good living out if this. Unless, unlucky, contraception failed. Twice.

If men want to be as certain as possible of not fathering a child, use a condom when having sex. It is that simple.

Wow he really does looks like Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen! But Laurence is hotter!

I only realised last year, talking to a friend, that Dave Grohl was in Nirvana. 🤣
Foo Fighters had never been on my radar.
I wondered idly why such a mediocre performer had such a stratospheric career.
Then my friend pointed out the Nirvana link 🤣

the80sweregreat · 11/09/2024 09:50

Just another idiot who doesn't know a good thing when he has it.
Read a thread about celebs in here once and DG came up as being a ' good guy' and people said he wasn't really ..
Seems they were right

catdoghorserabbit19 · 11/09/2024 09:54

Never heard of Dave Grohl !

I'm your fool......

There goes my Hero...

No, really though - what the fuck? Waiting for the long list of women who didn't get pregnant to emerge :(

Bittercup · 11/09/2024 10:04

I definitely fell for the nice guy persona and feel somewhat naive after reading about his quite frankly dodgy opinions.

If I'd had to make a list of men likely to cheat I don't think he'd have made the top 100 but here we are.

Also the Taylor Swift thing, I heard about it but didn't know the exact words so assumed it was a joke that landed badly. Wrong again!

Total mess for the children involved above all else, the youngest is only 10 years old. Imagine suddenly having a half sibling through your dad’s extramarital affair and having to process that at such a young age. It’s hard enough for most kids just getting a new sibling but this is completely fucked up. Obviously feel hugely for his wife too.

What a wank stain you are, Dave.

he got success in Nirvana but has been in FF a lot longer and it was his songs/talent that put the FF into the big league. Nirvana never achieved Foo fame, Kurt died before they could get there. Springsteen seems to have avoided all this backstage nonesense esp after his divorce (short marriage)

Dave Grohl was born as Dafydd Gareth Llewelyn-Bowen in Rhewl, Wales in 1969. A younger brother to Laurence who was born in 1965. Whilst his older brother played with wallpaper and fabric Dafydd picked up a guitar. He changed his name when he moved to the States in 1987, Dafydd became Dave and he took his middle initial G and birthplace Rhewl to create a new surname. He is often seen in Talacre where he has a caravan.😉

Excellent! 😁

That is disgusting, do you live in the 1960s?

OK calm down dear, I'm not ENDORSING the idea, I'm just stating as a fact that most people have their price. If you pay them enough they will keep quiet. Therefore you'd have thought Dave Grohl might have tried getting his chequebook out so she didn't go public.

notacooldad · 11/09/2024 11:14

I have met LLB several times as a member of public, not in a formal setting or anything and he was utterly charming and lovely. He could talk for England. He was lovely to meet. Dh met him at a networking event when LLB was a guest speaker and said he spoke a lot of sense, was down to earth and had time for everyone there.
Irrelevant to the DG not being nice anymore topic but I thought I'd throw it in.

Hey listen I have absolutely no sympathy for DG or any man in that situation. It’s still entirely of their own doing and entirely their own fault. I’m certainly not implying that they were coerced or trapped into anything. But I won’t pretend that there arent women out there who will seek to gain from the piss poor behaviour of men.

MrsWhattery · 11/09/2024 11:35

Yes I've heard positive personal accounts about LLB before. I like the way he just is who he is, and I like a man who embraces his own style. Nothing against him - just hadn't previously clocked the Dave Grohl resemblance!

TheBers2024 · 11/09/2024 11:36

@cushionfiend Wow! I am not an envious person by nature but I seriously am at your Lemmy encounter.
He was my first crush at 13 and I always secretly hoped I'd change his mind about the marriage thing.

Mind you the only time I met him I was married and I managed not to give him number. Men have such a sense of entiltlement.
