Cobain was making headlines soon after she was born. As a result, the department of children’s services sought to have Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love declared unfit parents, according to Heavier than Heaven: A Biography of Kurt Cobain by Charles R. Cross.
After a lengthy legal battle, Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love were able to regain custody of their daughter. Cobain was placed in her grandmother’s care for a time after her mother’s drug-related arrest in October 2003.
In the resulting custody battle, Cobain spent some time in the care of her nanny and family members while Love was allowed regular visits with her daughter. Love regained custody of Cobain in 2005. I want to be thought of as Frances Cobain.
In 2009, Wendy O'Connor, Kurt Cobain's mother and Kimberly Dawn Cobain, Kurt's sister were granted temporary guardianship of Frances.
Frances is believed to be named after Frances McKee, front woman of Glasgow group The Vaselines, or Frances Farmer, as noted in the Cobain biography Never Fade Away. Prior to Frances Cobain's birth there were rumors suggesting that her mother, Courtney Love, used heroin during her pregnancy with Frances.
This scandal intensified when Vanity Fair published Lynn Hirschberg's article "Strange Love" that alleged Love admitted to taking heroin even after learning of her pregnancy. Tool front man Maynard James Keenan wore a T-shirt which read "Free Frances Bean" in reference to the situation.
Frances was just 19 months old at this time.
The following fall, Love enrolled Frances at Happy Medium School in Seattle, now called Giddens School.
To date, Frances has only given three official interviews.
