Taylor Hawkins 10 Fast Facts, News, Biography, Wiki
Hawkins and his wife, Alison, married in 2005. Together they have three children. They lived in Hidden Hills, California, after moving from Topanga Canyon in 2012.
Hawkins overdosed on heroin in August 2001, which left him in a coma for two weeks. Hawkins’s bandmate and best friend, Dave Grohl, was beside his hospital bed in London for two weeks until he woke up.
Grohl said he was ready to quit music while Hawkins was in the hospital.
He also revealed in the 2011 documentary Foo Fighters: Back and Forth, that he wrote the song “On the Mend” from the band’s 2005’s album In Your Honor, about Hawkins while he was in a coma.
Speaking to Beats 1 host Matt Wilkinson in 2018 about the incident, Hawkins said: “I was partying a lot. I wasn’t a junkie, per se, but I was partying. There was a year where the partying just got a little too heavy.
Thank God on some level this guy gave me the wrong line with the wrong thing one night and I woke up going, ‘What the fuck happened?’ That was a real changing point for me.” In the same interview, Hawkins also said he was sober.
Hawkins suffered from stage fright. Speaking about his health in a June 2021 interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Hawkins said; “I’m healthy. I’m good… I get sinus infections really bad.
And I just found out from my doctor, got all my blood tests and my heart everything checked and he goes, ‘Dude, you’re in amazing shape. Your heart’s big, because you exercise a lot. It’s like a runner’s heart.’ And that’s fine.
The only thing is, he said, ‘I think you have sleep apnea.’ And my wife’s always saying you snore and you fucking make weird noises while you’re sleeping and stuff.”
In his 2021 memoir The Storyteller, Dave Grohl described Hawkins as “my brother from another mother, my best friend, a man for whom I would take a bullet.”
On March 25, 2022, emergency services were called to the Four Seasons Casa Medina hotel in Bogotá, Colombia, where Hawkins was suffering from chest pain in his hotel room.
Health personnel arrived and found Hawkins unresponsive; they performed CPR, but he was declared dead at the scene, at the age of 50. No cause of death was given.
The following day, Colombian authorities announced that a preliminary toxicology test indicated that Hawkins had ten substances in his system at the time of his death, including opioids, benzodiazepines, tricyclic antidepressants, and THC, the psychoactive compound in cannabis.
