Dave Grohl accused wife Jordyn Blum of being 'flirty' with tennis coach amid cheating and baby scandal
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In a series of heated arguments leading up to a shocking revelation, Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl, 55, accused his wife Jordyn Blum, 45, of having a "flirty" relationship with her tennis coach, Christopher Crabb, 54, the Daily Mail reported.
According to insiders, Grohl's accusations against Blum were an attempt to distract from his own infidelity, which later came to light when he revealed he had fathered a child outside his marriage.

Sources claim Grohl’s jealousy over Blum’s long-time coach had been building for months. Blum, a former model and producer, has been working with Crabb for years, with some training sessions taking place up to three times a week.
Despite Grohl’s suspicions, Blum insisted there was nothing inappropriate between her and Crabb.
Grohl’s accusations culminated in an Instagram post where he confessed to fathering a fourth child with another woman. The rocker, known for his clean image, admitted to his infidelity in the emotional statement, “I’ve recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage.”
He added that he is committed to being a loving parent and expressed his desire to regain the trust of his wife and family.
Sources say a "jealous" Grohl had been questioning Blum, 45, about her connection with her "hot" coach, Christopher Crabb, 54. Insiders believe this was a tactic to deflect attention from his own wrongdoings.
"Dave Grohl has been jealous for ages about Jordyn’s hot tennis coach," an insider told Daily Mail.
"They’ve had arguments about him, and Dave thinks they’ve flirted. Jordyn has told him he’s crazy to even think that. But Dave has persisted."
Blum has worked with Crabb for several years, often attending up to three training sessions a week at his $1.4 million Tarzana estate.
Crabb, who coaches a range of celebrities including Pete Wentz, Hillary Duff, and Zach Braff, operates from his distinctive bright blue court.
Other notable clients include Donald Faison, Jeff Probst, Nancy and Steve Carell, Elle and Dakota Fanning, and even Grohl, who has also received lessons from him.

"Jordyn has told him he’s crazy to even think that. But Dave has persisted," the source continued.
"She gets coaching at least three times a week near the family home. Jordyn now believes that Dave has been trying to detract from his own indiscretions by accusing her," they added,
Grohl and Blum's seemingly stable 21-year marriage took a hit this week when Grohl disclosed that he has fathered a fourth daughter with another woman, whose identity remains unknown.
Grohl has three daughters with Blum— Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.
Dave Grohl slammed for accusing wife of being 'flirty' with tennis coach
After Dave Grohl reportedly accused his wife Jordyn Blum of having a "flirty" relationship with her tennis coach, social media users took to the comments section of the Daily Mail article to express their views on the same.
Many users believe Grohl's attempts to shift blame are backfiring, further tarnishing his public image rather than affecting his wife.
One reader wrote, "A classic case of trying to shift the blame. He should stop there or he's going to put himself in a permanent bad light! The least he could do is beg for forgiveness and then it is her decision to decide based upon her own wellbeing."
Another commented, "Of course he did, my ex-husband accused me of everything he was actually doing. Classic sign of projection."
Grohl’s accusations, seen by many as a form of projection, are perceived to be damaging both to his public image and to his family's private life.
"There is a huge difference between flirting and creating a brand new human being with a person who is not your partner," one user pointed out, while another observed, "This happens a lot. The one doing the cheating is usually the one throwing the accusations at their partner."
Critics question Grohl's approach to repairing his family relationships, with one user noting, "So, when he mentioned retaining his family’s trust and earning their forgiveness, is this his plan? If so, it is a very, very poor one."
"Classic projection. He's actually trashing his public image even more, not his wife's. Add in to the mix how his children must be feeling seeing this play out in public, a sad state of affairs," one individual wrote.
