Dave Grohl Slammed by Conspiracy Trolls Over Kurt Cobain 'Murder' and Taylor Hawkins Overdose Amid Cheating Scandal

Dave Grohl has been targeted by conspiracy trolls recklessly blaming him for the deaths of two beloved bandmates amid his cheating scandal.

RadarOnline.com can confirm the Foo Fighters frontman’s “good guy” image has been tainted by his stunning admission that he fathered a secret love child.

Online conspiracy theorists are now pouncing on his fall from grace, by sickeningly linking him to the deaths of Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain and Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins.

Cobain died by suicide in 1994, officials said, after he shot himself in the head. Hawkins was determined to have died from a drug overdose in 2022.

But Grohl’s musical links with the duo, aided by his cheating, have apparently driven conspiracy theorists to suggest he may have played a role in their tragic deaths.

Writing on X, one user said: “Dave Grohl: he was with Kurt Cobain in Nirvana, Cobain committed suicide.

"Was with Taylor Hawkins in the Foo Fighters, Hawkins dies of an overdose.

“Now 55-year-old Grohl, married with 3 daughters, announces that he has a son out of wedlock, but he loves his wife and daughters. They are evil entities.”

Another post read: “Dave Grohl cheated on his wife now there’s people on Facebook saying he murdered Kurt. I beg y’all to shut the f*** up once in your life.”

A third speculated: “As a true hater, I feel validated now that Dave Grohl has been outed as a dirtbag. More proof he killed Kurt. Just saying”.

Grohl shocked the music world on Tuesday by revealing he had fathered a fourth child, this time out of wedlock.

The revelation sparked anger from fans, as “there goes my hero” started trending on social media, a play on the lyrics of Foo Fighters hit, My Hero.

Grohl's wife of 21 years, Jordyn Blum, had yet to comment on her husband’s infidelity, while two of his daughters Violet, 18, and Harper, 15, deleted their social media profiles, rather than come out and support their scandal-hit father.

Grohl has previously told how he considered quitting music in the wake of Cobain’s shock suicide at the peak of Nirvana’s powers.

He said: “I wasn't sure about playing music again. Dreams always give me this initial burst of happiness and joy, because Kurt is always in them.

“It's like, 'Oh! he's still alive! ' There's never an explanation for that. Just that charming feeling.”

He admitted to being offered a job as a drummer by singer Tom Petty when he decided not to continue with Nirvana.

Grohl explained: “Every time I sit on a drum stool, I see Kurt.

“I had a kind of post-traumatic stress disorder and afraid of letting it break me down. When Tom Petty asked, he wasn't ready to go there yet.”

Speaking about Hawkins at the drummer’s tribute concert at Wembley Stadium, which took place six months after his death, an emotional Grohl told fans: “Taylor loved to jam and record with anybody and everybody. He loved to play music every day. And there aren’t too many people that he’s never jammed with.

“So this collection of friends and family and musicians, this is all brought together by him and we’re all connected here today by that one guy.”
