Dave Grohl reportedly has a history of infidelity.
Twenty years before the 55-year-old musician admitted he cheated on his wife Jordyn Blum and fathered a child from an extramarital affair, his ex-girlfriend Tina Basic accused him of being with another woman during the two years they dated in the late 1990s.
In his 2003 memoir, Basic, 55, wrote, “Too cool for a girl: the autobiography of a snowboarding pioneer,” Grohl was so busy with his career at the time that he didn't make it a priority.
“The pressure on our relationship was too much,” she wrote. “You can only give a portion of your heart, your career, your time, and your soul, and here I was giving it all for a guy and losing myself in the process.”
“I felt like I was taking away time from his career, which was his priority — and I was completely putting my own career on the back burner without him knowing what I was doing,” she said.
The professional snowboarder then directly accused Grohl of cheating.
He said, “I don't know how a person in this profession can have a normal relationship with one or two girlfriends.”
Beswick claimed that he found out about Grohl's alleged infidelity “from the other side, through rumors”, and that it felt like “everyone in the world knew about it, except me.”
She added that she was “very disappointed” in herself for being “trapped” by Grohl.
“Breakups are bad. But rock star exits are the worst,” she wrote in her book. “I only got a five-minute phone call from him, after five weeks of calling and trying to reach him because I just had to know if these rumors were true and I had to hear it straight from the source. Nothing happened.”
After leaving Basic, the Foo Fighters frontman reportedly “disappeared off the planet” in Basic's world, but he was “everywhere as articles of him were appearing in all the magazines as they were finishing up a press tour for their new album.”
“What was worse was that I was getting calls from people wanting to tell me all about him, as if that would somehow give me relief.”
She said she “couldn't escape the thought of him” and “consciously didn't watch MTV, because his videos were always playing, and I didn't listen to the radio, because his singles were climbing the charts.”
“A few days after our breakup I went grocery shopping and heard the elevator-music version of 'Learn to Fly,' which immediately gave me stomach pains; then I saw him on the cover of Guitar magazine staring at me in the check-out line,” Beswick wrote.
“I didn't know how to deal with it. I thought, I'm not that strong,” she said.
The Post has contacted Basic for comment.
On Tuesday, Grohl announced that Instagram He recently fathered a child with an extramarital woman along with his wife Jordan.
“I recently became the father of an infant daughter, born outside of my marriage,” Grohl's statement said.
“I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her. I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to earn their trust and their forgiveness,” he added. “I am grateful for your consideration of all of our children as we move forward together.”
A rep for Grohl told The Post that the musician had no additional comment.
Grohl has three daughters, Violet May, 18, Harper Willow, 15, and Ophelia Saint, 10. He confirmed his new baby is also a girl.
The “Heart-Shaped Box” singer and his wife were spotted at Wimbledon in July, just weeks before his infidelity was announced.
The couple tied the knot in a ceremony held at their Los Angeles home on August 2, 2003. They met two years earlier when Grohl was at Sunset Marquis with his former bandmate Taylor Hawkins, who died in 2022.
Grohl said in an interview, Q Magazine He said the night they met he behaved “like a fool” and called Blum his “future ex-wife.”
The rocker later left Blum because he “wasn't ready for a serious relationship,” he said told Ellie in 2007.
However, he changed his mind after Hawkins' overdose in 2001 convinced him to settle down.
Before meeting Blum, Grohl was married to Jennifer Youngblood, whom he also dated. Allegedly cheated,
