Sadly, Virginia Grohl’s death is not a surprise.
The Foo Fighters’ UK Twitter page announced the sad news on the morning of August 17, 2022. It has since spread on social media.
Virginia Grohl’s son, Dave Grohl is a renowned American musician and a founding member of Foo Fighters. Virginia Grohl was also a writer.
Virginia Grohl wrote the book From the Cradle to the Stage: Tales from the Mothers of Foo Fighters.
She’s not very active on social media. In fact, she’s pretty quiet on Facebook, and her most recent post was from June 4, 2021.
However, Dave Grohl’s mother was still a major contributor to his success. In her last interview, she spoke about the importance of being a rock star.
It was the same sentiment that Amy Winehouse expressed when she spoke to the singer’s mother in 2013.
Dave Grohl’s parents were divorced in 1976. Virginia was 27 years old at the time. Virginia Grohl raised her son, Dave Grohl, from the age of seven.
He joined Nirvana in 1990 when he was 21.
He was a member of the band until 1994. At age twelve, Dave started learning guitar.
He taught himself how to play and joined bands with his friends.
Where is Virginia Grohl now?
Dave Grohl’s mother Virginia hasn’t been seen on the internet in several months.
She was married to a news writer and had three children.
The singer was active on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook. The singer’s mother had more than 7,000 followers on Twitter and Facebook.
While some fans believed the rumour, others were sceptical. Many celebrities’ death reports have been fabricated in recent months.
Although fake reports have not been reported on major US networks, the death of a rock star of the stature of Grohl would be a breaking story across many channels. However, the fake reports were not fun for many people.
Dave Grohl’s Early Life
There are some good reasons for that.
Growing up, Dave Grohl had an unconventional life. He attended three high schools before his junior year.
One school expelled him for using marijuana, and his mother removed him from another for violating the rules. He was never the best academic.
His passion for music made him drop out of high school and tour the world with Scream for many years. He also became friends with Buzz Osborne, a fellow punk musician.
The Foo Fighters singer and director recently aired an unscripted show called From Cradle to Stage, which is based on his mom’s book of the same name.
Among the cast members are Imagine Dragons’ Dan Reynolds, Miranda Lambert’s Bev, Rage Against the Machine’s Tom Morello and Rush’s Geddy Lee.
The series will be available on Amazon Prime and Coda Collection.
While Dave Grohl may be the rock star of his generation, his mother, Virginia Grohl was a humble, down-to-earth person.
Her mother, Virginia Grohl, has been a constant source of support for her son. The rock star was very close to her mother.
She also had a close relationship with her son, Dave Grohl who was a huge fan of his music.
As a result, her mother was proud to have a daughter who had grown up in the rock star’s footsteps.
