“I’ve recently become the father of a new baby daughter, born outside of my marriage. I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her,” he wrote in a statement on Instagram.

“I love my wife and children, and I am doing all I can to regain their trust and earn their forgiveness. We’re grateful for your consideration toward all the children involved, as we move forward together.”

Dave married his wife Jordyn Blum on August 2, 2003, and they have three children: Daughter Violet, 18, who has appeared on stage with the band, 15-year-old daughter Harper, and 10-year-old daughter, Ophelia.

Jordyn has mostly stayed out of the spotlight, but earlier in July she joined Dave as they attended the 2024 Wimbledon tennis tournament, sitting in the coveted Royal Box seats alongside David Beckham.

They met in 2001 at the Sunset Marquis Whiskey Bar, but Dave once revealed that their romance got off to a rocky start, because when they first began dating he decided that he “wasn’t ready for a serious relationship, so I just stopped calling”.

“After three months, I had a revelation and called her back. She picked up the phone and said, ‘Oh, I never thought I’d hear from you again,'” he told ELLE.

In the 23 years since they have met, Jordyn has been the inspiration for several of Dave’s songs, including the track “Statues” from the 2008 album Echoes, Silence, Patience & Grace, and the 2006 song “Burn Away”

In 2023 Violet joined her father on stage at Glastonbury Festival, as the band made a surprise appearance under the name The Churnups.

“‘My favorite singer in the world,” the frontman told the cheering crowds as his then 17-year-old daughter walked out on stage. “This is a song I wrote for my mother, Violet’s grandmother. This is ‘Show Me How.'”
