'Saint' Dave Grohl melts the internet

News of his indiscretion seems to be everywhere. Rather sad that even his holiness turns out to have feet of clay…

He has spoken before about how infidelity caused his first marriage to end, so not totally unexpected he has repeated this in his second marriage.

And I always thought he was simply a ‘mummies’ boy!

We’re all too long in the tooth to get judge-y.

Why should Dave Grohl be immune from something so common, unfortunate though it may be?

Very sad for his family and the extra-marital partner/child.

I would hope he explained matters to his wife and children and didn’t just post on Instagarm unless there was pressure from the extra-marital interest.

An unenviable position to be in due to his own indiscretion, but at lest he’s being honest and recognising his latest child is his whatever the consequences.

Undoubtedly, though I suspect he’s in a better position to weather that (deserved?) storm than many others.

Come on his a rock star what’d expect. His just following a long line of those that went before him.

It seems easy to judge the indiscretions of others when no one wants you.

I think its not so much judgement but that many of us can relate to it. Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak and thats what we all feel.

Some people are on their second or third marriages through the inability of others to be monogamous, rather than themselves, and have suffered in the process.

And many children actually do suffer, and sone at least are affected permanently, however much they might appear to ‘recover’.

As for Dave Grohl, it does indeed tend to go with the lifestyle, temptation at every gig, few resisting if. I’m curious though as to whoever thought he was a ‘saint’?

There’s a bit of truth in that but kids are pretty resilient. Most of the damage is caused by irresponsible parents who choose to use their kids as weapons.

Sorry, he’s not a rockstar. He’s a popstar pretending to be one.
Kurt is probably turning in his grave.

Now you’re splitting hairs, I don’t owned any of their or have ever knowingly listen him or his band. But that’s not to say his not a rock star to his fans. As for Kurt rock star yes but he wasted his life.
