Dave Grohl is calling out fake news about his life.
A now-deleted Instagram account named @valeriegreyston posted a photo of a baby named Roxie Junie Grohl and claimed Roxie is Grohl’s daughter who he fathered out of wedlock after cheating on his wife, Jordyn Blum.
However, Grohl’s rep told TMZ Wednesday that the viral post is fake.
