It’s been 30 years since Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain died. The legendary rockstar died at age 27 of a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head, after years of struggling with drug addiction and depression. Kurt left behind his wife, Hole frontwoman Courtney Love, and their daughter Frances Bean Cobain. Frances was not even 2 years old when her famous father tragically passed. She’s since grown into a talented and inspiring adult, though she’s had her fair share of troubles. In February 2018, Frances marked 2 years of sobriety on Instagram. On the 30th anniversary of her late father’s death, Frances posted a heart-wrenching tribute to Kurt.
“Thirty years ago my dad’s life ended,” she captioned an Instagram post on April 5, 2024. “I wish I could’ve known my Dad. … But there is also deep wisdom being on an expedited path to understanding how precious life is. He gifted me a lesson in death that can only come through the LIVED experience of losing someone. It’s the gift of knowing for certain, when we love ourselves & those around us with compassion, with openness, with grace, the more meaningful our time here inherently becomes.”
