Grohl has been married to wife Jordyn Blum since 2003. The couple shares three kids, daughters Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.

Although the former Nirvana drummer doesn't often speak about his wife in interviews, he discussed the importance of his family in 2009, telling TIME, "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."

The musician continued, "It's changed everything that I do. 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."

In 2023, Blum made a rare public appearance with Grohl and their three daughters for the 2023 Grammy Awards, where the family of five posed together for photos on the red carpet.

Blum wore a short, black sequined dress while Grohl sported an all-black ensemble. Meanwhile, the couple's eldest daughter Violet rocked a blazer dress and knee-high boots; Harper donned a floral dress with lug sole boots; and Ophelia wore a floaty ombré dress that she accessorized with a gold purse.

Blum and Grohl were most recently spotted attending London's Wimbledon tennis tournament in July 2024. The two sat together in the coveted Royal Box seats alongside several celebrities, including David Beckham.
