The moment Dave Grohl’s ex Louise Post accused him of cheating with Winona Ryder on-stage in Australia and details of his wild arrest Down Under resurface – as he admits to fathering a secret baby

The wild moment Dave Grohl’s ex-girlfriend Louise Post accused him of cheating on stage in Australia has resurfaced after the Foo Fighters frontman admitted this week that he cheated on his wife Jordyn Blum and secretly fathered a baby girl.

The 55-year-old rock star shocked fans on Tuesday when he revealed on Instagram that he recently had a daughter outside of his marriage to his wife of 21 years.

Dave’s ex-girlfriend Louise, 57, accused him of cheating on her on stage while drunk in the 1990s.

The rocker was linked to singer Louise van Veruca Salt after his marriage to his first wife Jennifer Youngblood ended in 1997, when he admitted to infidelity.

However, after about a year of dating, their relationship came to an explosive end when Louise accused Dave of cheating on stage during a show in Melbourne.

Louise publicly railed against Dave, outright claiming that he had cheated on her with actress Winona Ryder, which he denied.

Louise reportedly later admitted she was drunk, but she has not retracted her allegations, admitting she ‘fell apart publicly’ during her Australian tour.

Despite the tumultuous split, Louise and Dave are now friends and she has responded to rumours that their split inspired the lyrics on her 2000 album Resolver.

“People definitely read things into my songs. In interviews, any mention of him makes me angry,” Louise told the Sydney Morning Herald.

“It was a private relationship, but it got so much publicity. I didn’t want it to happen. I’m friends with him now.”

The ‘dramatic’ Melbourne show also marked the beginning of the end for her band Veruca Salt, who split shortly after after she had a falling out with co-founder Nina Gordon. However, the two finally reconciled in 2015.

‘[Me and Nina] “had a big fight on stage in Melbourne,” she said The music in 2015. ‘I had just found out my then boyfriend was cheating on me, so I publicly broke down on all the Australian stages.

“Then we went back to the States, and then Nina and I had a falling out and we went our separate ways. Despite all that, I have only good associations with Australia. Even that tour: it was crazy, it was wild, it was dramatic.”

In addition to Louise’s infamous on-stage tirade Down Under, Dave also made a rather heated visit to Australia himself in 2000, which resulted in him being arrested.

The ’embarrassing’ incident occurred when the rocker was doing ‘shots’ at Sea World while performing at the Big Day Out festival on the Gold Coast in his early years.

After renting a moped to do some sightseeing, Dave was stopped at an RBT checkpoint on his way to his hotel with a blood alcohol level of 0.95.

In Australia it is an offence to drive or operate a vehicle with a blood alcohol level of more than 0.05.

When Dave appeared in court during the Foo Fighters’ Australian tour, he was convicted and fined $400. He has since reflected on the incident.

During a performance at Brisbane’s Suncorp Stadium in December, Dave told fans he had been arrested after taking “shots” during a day of sightseeing.

“I was on one of those Big Day Out tours. I was on a scooter and I rode it to the Gold Coast so I could go to Sea World and drink f***ing blue shots,” he said while on stage.

‘I was actually supposed to go on vacation, but I spent the whole time in that shitty cell with a guy in a Primus T-shirt who kept snoring.’

Dave said his cellmates were big fans of his music and had all made friends during the wild turn of his Australian holiday.

“Everyone in prison was like, ‘Okay Dave!’ We were on tour with Nine Inch Nails and Primal Scream and I’m the one who f***ing gets thrown in jail. That’s bulls**t,” he joked.

In 2021, Dave also described the incident as “embarrassing” and said he has to declare the arrest on his travel form every time he enters the country.

“I still have to account for that every time I come here; every time I have to check that f****ing box,” he shared in his memoir The Storyteller: Tales Of Life And Music.

“They pull me aside at the airport and I have to tell them the story and they laugh, and then I go get my bag. It’s f***ing embarrassing.”

“I got thrown in jail for getting drunk on a scooter; that was fun. Ah, the memories. Those were the days. It’s not a bad life,” Dave shared in 2019.

Dave first toured Down Under in 1992 with his former rock band Nirvana and has visited the country regularly since 1995 with the Foo Fighters.

Dave and his Nirvana bandmates Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic performed in a Sydney pub in 1992, before they became world famous.

The group took to the stage for a wild performance in front of some 2,000 fans at the Coogee Bay Hotel, just four weeks after first reaching No. 1 on the US album charts.

Dave has since described Australia as his ‘second home’ and one of his ‘favourite f**king places’ in the world, having travelled the world for 30 years.

His new comments come after Dave admitted on Instagram on Tuesday that he cheated on his wife of 21 years, Jordyn, and secretly fathered a baby girl.

In a statement, it said: ‘I recently became the father of a new baby daughter, born out of wedlock, and I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her.

‘I love my wife and children and I will do everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.

“We are grateful for your attention to all the children involved as we move forward together.”

Dave and Jordyn met in 2001 and have been married since 2003. They have three daughters: Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.

His two eldest children deleted their Instagram accounts following their father’s announcement.

Little is known about his second wife, but Jordyn was reportedly working as a producer at MTV when she met the musician.

Jordyn has worked with the Foo Fighters on several occasions, appearing in the 2002 video for White Limo and co-directing the 2002 video for Walking a Line.

Dave divorced his first wife Jennifer Leigh Youngblood in 1997 after admitting to cheating on her during their three-year marriage.

He previously said of the union: ‘I was 25, my wife was younger. We weren’t ready to get married. I miss her so much, she’s the funniest fucking weirdo you’ll ever meet in your life.

“Absolutely adorable. It would have been better if we hadn’t gotten married. But you live and you learn.”

Dave previously indicated that the Foo Fighters’ hit Everlong was inspired by his first wife.

He said: ‘I broke up with a girl I’d been with for a while, so I was in the middle of an intense emotional period.

‘And for some reason, the emotion or the feeling that I got when I played this sequence of chords kind of touched on the emotion that that was.

‘So because I was emotionally in a mess, I started writing the lyrics for this song. The lyrics come from real life.’

Foo Fighters’ first single, This Is A Call, was written during the couple’s 1994 honeymoon in Dublin, Ireland.

Dave met his second wife Jordyn in 2001 at the Sunset Marquis Whiskey Bar in West Hollywood and they married on August 2, 2003 at their LA home.

The musician, who is often described as a “family man,” has spoken about the importance of his family in interviews over the years.
