Dave Grohl’s ex Kari Wuhrer recently revealed that she’s not surprised by his recent cheating scandal and claimed she was his secret girlfriend in the ‘90s.
Dave Grohl faces bold accusations
Wuhrer recently told TMZ on Thursday, September 19, that she heard “rumblings” of Grohl, 55, being unfaithful to wife Jordyn Blum before news broke this month that he fathered a child out of wedlock.
Wuhrer went on to claim that when she dated the Foo Fighters singer in the late ‘90s he was still dating snowboarder Tina Basich. Wuhrer told the outlet that she let the “cat out of the bag” about her and Grohl’s affair by accident when she called The Howard Stern Show to vent about Grohl allegedly yelling at her.
Basich, 55, allegedly heard the interview, leading to her and Grohl calling it quits. In her 2003 memoir, Pretty Good for a Girl: The Autobiography of a Snowboarding Pioneer, Basich claimed that Grohl was “busy” during their two-year relationship and accused him of cheating.
“I don’t know how anyone in his profession can have a normal relationship with a girlfriend … or two, as it turned out,” she wrote in the book, revealing that Grohl told her “nothing” about his alleged affair despite her calling him for five weeks wanting details. “I found out secondhand, through the grapevine, when it seemed like everyone else in the world knew about it but me.”
“I never heard about her. He never spoke of it,” Wuhrer told TMZ on Thursday of Basich, claiming she had no idea she was the other woman. Wuhrer added that she hasn’t spoken to Grohl since her Howard Stern appearance, but she did see him years later in Los Angeles.
Wuhrer alleged, “He would just look at me like I didn’t exist,” when they crossed paths at their kids’ playground. “I just felt like I knew he was a scumbag after that,” she said.
