Foo Fighters Frontman Dave Grohl Had '70 Weeks of Therapy' After Affair Admission
- On March 20, 2026, Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl said he has been in therapy six days a week for 70 weeks after admitting in September 2024 he fathered a child outside his marriage.
- Personal tragedies and public fallout drove Grohl to therapy shortly after his admission, including the 2022 deaths of Taylor Hawkins and Virginia Grohl, prompting him to step away from social media.
- The band responded by canceling a planned headline tour, with Nate Mendel saying Grohl has shifted priorities toward life outside music and support from bandmates; Grohl said, 'I had to turn everything off, one of those things being my concern for what other people think.'
- Grohl's family has since made multiple public appearances, including a joint red carpet in October, more than 550 days after the public admission; he and Jordyn Blum have been married since 2003 and share their three daughters.
- With new music due, the group plans North American summer and autumn dates and an Australia/New Zealand leg for 2026–2027, and will stream their April 6 show.
