9 Stars Who Got Other Women Pregnant While They Were Married

Cheating in a relationship is never acceptable and when a celebrity gets involved in a love affair, it undoubtedly makes headlines…especially when their mistress ends up pregnant. While many of these famous men seemingly believe they can keep their extramarital romances a secret, fans are usually always bound to find out. These married stars then have the choice to publicly own up to their mistake -- or completely deny the whole thing. Thankfully, most of these celebs chose to support their baby on the way. Find out which married men got other women pregnant… 1. Dave Grohl Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl recently revealed that he became the father to a baby girl born “outside” of his marriage to his longtime wife Jordyn Blum. Dave, who has been married to Jordyn for over two decades and with whom he shares three children, explained the situation in a post on Instagram. “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,” Dave wrote. “I love my wife and my children, and I am doing everything 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 has not shared any further information about the baby or her mother. 2. Jimmie Allen In early 2024, country star Jimmie Allen revealed that he had welcomed three children with two different women. He explained that he and his wife Alexis were on a break when he became romantically involved with his longtime friend Danielle. During that time, Danielle became pregnant with twins -- and shortly after, Jimmie reconciled with Alexis, who also became pregnant. “[The twins have a] different mother -- my friend Danielle. I’ve known Danielle for years. Way before I became ‘Jimmie Allen.’ And at the time that she got pregnant with the twins, I wasn’t with Lexi, and [Danielle] wasn’t with her husband,” Jimmie shared on his YouTube channel. While Jimmie is an involved father in the lives of all of his children, he has now officially separated from Alexis. 3. Arnold Schwarzenegger Arnold Schwarzenegger was still married to his wife, Maria Shriver, when he began an affair with his family’s housekeeper, Mildred Patricia Baena. In 1997, she became pregnant and that October, she gave birth to Arnold’s son Joseph -- just days after Maria gave birth to the couple’s son Christopher. At the time, Arnold was unaware that the little boy was his son, instead believing that Joseph’s father was Mildred’s then-husband. He says it wasn’t until Joseph “started looking like” him that he “kind of got it” and “put things together.” From that point on, he started to financially care for Joseph and Mildred. He didn’t tell Maria for years but by that time, she already had her suspicions about the little boy. News of the affair was not publicly revealed until Arnold was no longer governor of California. The couple later divorced. “It was wrong what I did,” he said in the docuseries Arnold. “But I don’t want to make Joseph feel that he is not welcomed in this world -- because he is very much welcomed in this world. I love him and he has turned out to be an extraordinary young man.” 4. Chuck Norris Chuck Norris and his first wife, Dianne Holchek, had been married for just a few years when he had an affair with a woman named Johanna in the early 1960s. Amid the affair, Johanna, who didn’t know Chuck was married, became pregnant with a baby girl. She never told Chuck about the pregnancy and it wasn’t until 1991 that he discovered Johanna had given birth to a daughter named Dina when she wrote him a letter. “Johanna confirmed to Dina that I was her biological father but that I was married and had children and she shouldn't disrupt my life,” Chuck wrote in Against All Odds: My Story, later adding, “I didn’t need DNA or blood tests. I went to her, wrapped my arms around her, and we both started crying. At that moment, it was as if I had known her all my life.” 5. Mel Gibson Mel Gibson may have separated from his wife, Robyn Moore, in 2006 but the couple was legally married when he began dating Oksana Grigorieva. Amid their relationship, she became pregnant -- and it wasn’t until just a few months before she gave birth that Mel and Robyn actually filed for divorce. Mel and Oksana later welcomed their daughter Lucia amid Mel’s messy divorce battle with Robyn. Things got even more dramatic when the couple split and found themselves in the middle of a bitter custody dispute. Eventually, they reached a $750,000 settlement, per THR, and Mel agreed to pay for the home that Oksana lived in with Lucia. 6.
