Rocker Dave Grohl's family is still feeling the effects of his infidelity a month after the news that the Foo Fighters frontman fathered a child outside of his marriage.
Grohl has been married to model Jordyn Blum for 20 years, following a short marriage with Jennifer Youngblood.
The now-father of four has only been seen a few times publicly since the news broke.
While tension has reportedly begun to lessen in the Grohl-Blum home, Blum is taking steps to heal from the news of her husband's affair.
Dave Grohl Has Fathered A Child Outside Of His Marriage
The "Best Of You" singer announced he was a father for the fourth time a month ago. Grohl opened up about the news in an emotional Instagram post.
"I've recently become a father of a new baby daughter, born outside my marriage," the "Everlong" songwriter's post began. "I plan to be a loving and supportive parent to her."
Grohl also stresses how much he loves his wife and children, and that he is working to mend his relationship with Blum and their three daughters.

Blum, whom Grohl first met in 2001, has reportedly begun to take steps to move forward from the news.
She had seemingly stopped wearing her wedding ring back in August, according to photos obtained by The New York Post. In the shots, Blum and Grohl were seen walking together in Los Angeles.
Mrs. Grohl has also been reportedly offered a multi-million dollar book deal to share her story with the world. A September report from the Daily Mail alleges "the book could provide an in-depth account of her efforts to keep their marriage intact for the sake of their three daughters."
The source said further, "f she decides to accept the offer, it will be an intimate look at her life with a rock' n' roll icon for over twenty years. She'll tell how she's been holding the marriage together for the sake of their three daughters."
Grohl's Family Is Still Attempting To Move Forward
More than a month after Grohl's infidelity news, the family is working through the aftermath.
An inside source to the Grohl family revealed that Blum has "calmed down" from the news. However, neither Mr. or Mrs. Grohl are wearing their wedding rings.
The source further revealed Blum's mood toward her husband not to be perceptive, describing her not being "happy" toward "The Pretender" singer.
"Their marriage is still not in great shape," the source continued to People Magazine.
The Mother Of Three Is 'Focused' On Her Daughters' Wellbeing
Blum and Grohl share three daughters, Violet, 18, Harper, 15, and Ophelia, 10.
The young Grohl ladies are Blum's sole focus as their family heals and continues to move forward. Blum is reportedly dedicating her time to focusing on "her girls, their schooling, and extracurricular activities," the insider further reports.
10-year-old Ophelia was recently seen shopping for Halloween costumes with her Dad. The Daddy-daughter date took place in late September, marking the first time Dave had been seen out publicly, as The Blast previously reported.
Photos from Page Six showed the duo leaving a Spirit Halloween with a cart full of items, which Grohl was then seen putting into his pickup truck.
Jordyn Blum Is Being Cautious With Her Husband
Blum is also reportedly proceeding her husband with caution following the scandal; the model has been said not to "trust" Grohl any longer.
Sources described this period as being "hard" for Blum.
"Her mind is not on her marriage though," a source told People earlier this month, as previously reported by The Blast. "She doesn't trust Dave."
Blum is reportedly surrounding herself with friends during this difficult time.
"She's leaning on a group of girlfriends," the insider continued to the publication. She feels lucky to be surrounded by love and support."
The Foo Fighters have quietly gone on hiatus in the wake of Grohl's news.
The band was scheduled to appear at the Southside Music Festival last month, withdrawing from the lineup at the last minute.
An insider for The Sun reported the band wanted "time to be with their families and focus on regrouping."
The source also added, "It's been a turbulent few years, with the loss of their best friend, drummer Taylor Hawkins, the death of Dave's mum and now the birth of his new child, He wants to be at home and focus on earning back the trust of his family."
The band's statement read, "Foo Fighters will no longer be appearing at this weekend's Soundside Music Festival. Please check the festival website for more information."
