The couple’s new baby girl, Ophelia Grohl, joins big sisters, Violet Maye, 8, and Harper Willow, 5. The duo has been married for 11 years.
Us Weekly revealed that the couple was pregnant back in February. The biggest challenge for the proud parents was coming up with a name for their newest arrival.
Besides welcoming a new addition to the household, Grohl and the Foo Fighters hit the hottest trend on the internet on Tuesday — the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. The group paid homage to the horror flick, Carrie, after country singer Zac Brown challenged them.
