Dave Grohl and Wife Expecting Second Child

BD/Flynet

Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl and his wife Jordyn Blum, 32, are going to be parents for the second time! The 39-year-old rocker’s rep confirmed to PEOPLE that Jordyn is pregnant with the couple’s second child. No further details — including a due date — were released.

The new baby will join big sister Violet Maye, 2 ½. Dave and Jordyn were married in August 2003.

Yay!! Violet is so cute and Dave seems so in love with his little girl!

Congratulations! I wonder how far along she is. It seems like the last few photos posted readers were wondering if she was pregnant. I’m glad to hear she is!

- Brandi on

Awe! that’s so weird, this afternoon I was like, I hope Dave Grohl has another baby soon. Violet is so adorable, congrats to them :)

- courtney on

I like this family.Big Foo fighters fan wishes them a happy easy pregnancy

- eva on

i’ve been thinking it since february…lol…so i assume i was wrong. dont think she can be too far along,as pics i saw taken in june/july she didnt appear to be pregnant,not that thats saying much.
with Vi they left it really late to announce it,so its anyones guess lol.

last foo gig is tonight,so maybe Dave will say more on stage?!
he usually announces all secrets after a few beers! x

- Lou on

Congrats to the three of them! I’m a huge fan of Dave’s and fatherhood really suits him. No doubt this baby will be just as beautiful and loved as his/her older sister.

- Lily on

congrats to dave and jordyn! such exciting news. dave seems like a wonderful father to violet.

- ashley_anne on

violet will be great with a little sister or brother.

- sinclair on

Wow, both Violets in Hollywood have little brothers or sisters on the way! (Violet Affleck and Violet Grohl).

- Stacia on

Aww Yay!! I knew they were going to be pregnant again soon. Dave and everyone are off tour now. Violet is such an adorable baby, can’t wait find out the details of the next one.

- Mia on

Aww congrats! Violets a cutie!

- Kelly on

so odd, i too was thinking that they would be adding another one.

and with the way things are going, they will likely have twins!

- morgyn on

Congrats to them both! The time seems right though, because Dave and the band are taking a ‘long’ break. I’m sure we’ll hear more information soon enough!

What is it with all these second or third pregnancy annoucements lately?

I mean, within the past week or so, Trista and Ryan Sutter, Brad and Kimberely Paisley, Lisa Bonet, and the Grohls have all annnounced their second (or, in Lisa’s case, third) pregnancies!

Not to mention Gwen and Gavin, Angie and Brad (I know Knox and Viv are actually their fifth and sixth kids, but I’m including them since this was Angie’s second pregnancy and Angie and Brad’s second and third biological kids) Matt and Luciana (similar to the Jolie-Pitts, except that this was Luciana’s third pregnancy but the second biological child of Luciana and Matt), Adam and Jackie, Ben and Jen, who have all either recently had their second child or are currently expecting their second child.

People keep commenting on the “twin boom”, in Hollywood…But there also seems to be a boom of second pregnancies! :)

I went to see the Foo’s at Wembley this summer and when Dave said they wouldn’t be back for a while I knew they’d be a second pregnancy and have been waiting for this ever since. Congratulations!!

- Beth on

This is one of my favourite families EVER! I was lucky enough to be at one of the Foo Fighters Wembley Stadium gigs this year and have Dave to thank for one of the best nights ever! The least I can do is pass on congrats for another mini Foo! Violet is such a little beauty, I can’t wait to see the next one! I’ve got a feeling they’ll have another girl! Oh, I’m really excited about this! CONGRATULATIONS Dave and Jordyn!

- phoebe on

congrats to dave and his wife! i think that they are going to have another daughter, and i hope that the new baby will be as beautiful as Violet! Foo fighters rule!

- marcia on

phoebe-ditto EVERYTHING you said,especially about Wembley!
i’m hoping for a boy this time though…a mini dave’d be perfect! x

- Lou on

I’m thinking boy. But it’s funny because everyone else in the Foos has all boys!! Dave/Jordyn are the only ones with a daughter. Shifflet has 3 boys, Nate has 2 boys, and Taylor has 1.

- Mia on

mia-oh yeah…! i actually hadnt noticed that,lol. i did know but hadnt put two and two together! (and i call myself a fan,lol)

i’m hoping for lots of pregnancy pics on here so i can see what Dave is up to on the foo break! aah i’m just so happy for him, i’ve been waiting for this moment for AGES,have had a smile on my face all day! x

- Lou on

Oops! I forgot Naomi and Liev! I wonder if, once her play is over, we’ll be hearing pregnancy news about Katie Holmes? So far, of celebs that have two-year-olds, she’s the odd one out in that she is NOT pregnant with baby number 2! I think she might have been by now had it not been for her play.

- CelebBabyLover on

Conratulations!
I read in an interview around 2003ish/2004ish (fooarchive!) that if Dave were to have a daughter, he’d name her Violet (and he did, obviously) and if he were to have a son, he’d name him Harper.. Anyone else heard this??

- Catherine on

Wonderful news! So happy for them!

- Jackie on

catherine; wow…he obviously really liked the names! loving that he called her harper regardless of sex, i really like the name.

i am now off to find the interview where he said that, lol! xx
