Dave Grohl was pictured shopping for Halloween decorations in his first sighting since revealing he fathered a secret love child outside his marriage.
The Foo Fighters frontman, 55, was spotted leaving a Spirit Halloween store in Los Angeles on Sunday with his daughter Ophelia, 10, who he shares with wife Jordyn Blum, 48, along with daughters Violet, 18, and Harper, 15.
Getting ready for the upcoming holiday, the rocker pushed a cart full of decorations, including two full-size skeletons.
The former Nirvana drummer wore a casual outfit for the outing, featuring a gray T-shirt, black cargo shorts and a baseball hat. His long hair was pulled back into a bun.
Grohl shocked fans last month when he admitted to cheating on 21-year-old wife Jordyn and welcoming a baby girl with an as-yet-unnamed woman.

For their Sunday outing, Dave – who was recently branded as a “jerk” and “serial cheater” by ex-girlfriend Kari Wuhrer – also wore a cross necklace.
Meanwhile, his daughter also looked relaxed, wearing an oversized black T-shirt, light jeans and sandals.
After their shopping trip, Grohl packed his purchases into the back of his truck and drove away.
The musician announced in a statement on social media on September 10 that he had welcomed a daughter as he vowed to try to ‘get back’. [the] trust’ of his wife and their three daughters.
‘I recently became the father of a new daughter, born outside my marriage. I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her,” Grohl announced to his 1.4 million followers on Instagram.
“I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness.”
He concluded: “We are grateful for your attention to all the children involved as we move forward together,” he concluded the short post.
Grohl did not share any information about the mother of his fourth child in the post.

Grohl and his wife met in 2001 and have been married since 2003.
Following his announcement that he had fathered a child outside his marriage, his two eldest daughters both deleted their social media accounts.
Days later, his alleged relationship with porn publisher Annaliese Nielsen, 40, was exposed, with her former friends telling DailyMail.com that she had a 15-year affair with the frontman.
Blum reportedly “turned a blind eye” to Grohl’s behavior during their wedding, but she was able to speak out after the latest bombings.
“Close friends believe she turned a blind eye to Dave’s indiscretions for a long time,” the insider said.
“Now that he has humiliated her in front of the world with his baby bombshell, she can no longer hide behind the facade of a perfect marriage.”
It was also reported that he recently fell out with Blum over her “flirty” relationship with her married tennis coach Christopher Crabb, in what insiders claimed was an attempt to detract from his own indiscretions.
“Dave Grohl has been jealous of Jordyn’s hot tennis coach for a long time,” an insider previously told DailyMail.com.
‘They had a fight about him and Dave thinks they flirted. Jordyn told him he’s crazy to even think that. But Dave persevered.”
His admission of marital infidelity followed an admission to The Guardian in 2007 that he had also cheated on his first wife, Jennifer Leigh Youngblood.
The two married in 1994 but had separated by 1996, divorcing the following year.

The rock star, who is often described as a “family man,” has spoken about the importance of his family in interviews over the years.
In the same Guardian interview, Grohl said: ‘[My wife] Jordyn and [daughter] Violet are anchors that keep me from disappearing completely.”
In 2012, he told TIME that his family “has changed everything I do.”
He added: “It has changed everything I do. When you have children, you see life through different eyes. You feel the love more deeply and may be a little more compassionate. It’s inevitable that that will end up in your songwriting.”
Although little is publicly known about Blum, People reported that she once appeared on the cover of Teen – after being discovered in a supermarket at the age of 12.
Blum was reportedly working as a producer at MTV when she met the frontman.
But Grohl told Elle in 2007 that he wasn’t ready for a serious relationship when they first met, and stopped calling Blum after a few dates.
He said: ‘After three months I had an epiphany and called her back. She picked up the phone and said, “Oh, I never thought I’d hear from you again.”
Meanwhile, his band, Foo Fighters, is reportedly ‘taking a break’ amid his affair scandal.

The band canceled a performance at the Soundside Music Festival in Bridgeport, Connecticut last weekend.
Now reports suggest they are about to take a break as they deal with the aftermath of ‘a turbulent few years’.
A source said The sun: ‘The band needs time to be with their families and focus on regrouping.’
They added: ‘It’s been a turbulent few years, with the loss of their best friend, drummer Taylor Hawkins, the death of Dave’s mother and now the birth of his new child.
“He wants to be home and concentrate on regaining his family’s trust. Being on the road isn’t the best thing for any of them right now. It feels like a break is best for them together.”
