Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love’s daughter Frances Bean Cobain recently shared a photo of herself on Valentine’s Day which revealed her valentine: her dog!
She also recently wrote on Instagram, “People have been asking how to purchase my art a lot lately. There will be art that you can purchase once there’s musical accompaniment. I am working so hard to bring to fruition a fully realized vision. My sonic and visual art coincides in equal measures. I want to create a world of my own making for you guys.
Picture lots of iridescent bugs and some semblance of operatic California folk blues.”
Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love’s daughter Frances Bean Cobain broke up with her rocker boyfriend Matthew Cook last year. She revealed the news in an Independent interview.
Where does she feel that came from? “It probably has something to do with an early onset exposure to death, and being very accepting of that. I’m not fearful of that at all.”
I ask Frances how long did it take her to accept death? “I’ve always been accepting of death,” she says, matter of factly. “When I had animals when I was little I would get very sad, but I always understood that it [death] was a very natural part of life. And in a way I am sort of grateful for it because recently I had to put my dog down,” she explains. “My boyfriend… my ex-boyfriend…” she corrects herself, “he had a very emotional attachment to the dog. He took it a lot harder than I did, because I recognise that it was a natural thing, and he was suffering and holding on to his pain was selfish. And I recognised in my ex-boyfriend that he was having a harder time than I was, even though it wasn’t his dog. It was my dog!”
That wasn’t the reason you broke up? “No! No! No!”
The dog dies and I leave? I tease.
“No! No! No!” she laughs. “So I feel I have an awareness of that [death].”
Not many people would disagree with Saint Frances of Seattle.
