Frances Bean Cobain has marked the 30th anniversary of her rocker father Kurt Cobain’s death with a heartbreaking tribute post.
Frances, 31, shared a sweet series of pictures of the pair together, and her Nirvana star father over the years, and admitted she wishes she “could’ve known her Dad”.
“I wish I could’ve known my Dad. I wish I knew the cadence of his voice, how he liked his coffee or the way it felt to be tucked in after a bedtime story,” she wrote in her post.

“I always wondered if he would’ve caught tadpoles with me during the muggy Washington summers, or if he smelled of Camel Lights & strawberry Nesquik (his favorites, I’ve been told).”
“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.”
Frances, who said she’s been told the pair have the ”same hands,” said her father wrote her a letter before she was born.

“Kurt wrote me a letter before I was born. The last line of it reads, ‘wherever you go or wherever I go, I will always be with you.’ He kept this promise because he is present in so many ways,” she explained.

“Whether it’s by hearing a song or through the hands we share, in those moments I get to spend a little time with my dad & he feels transcendent. ✨”
She added: “The biggest lesson learned through grieving for almost as long as I’ve been conscious, is that it serves a purpose.”
She finished: “To anyone who has wondered what it would’ve looked like to live along side the people they have lost, I’m holding you in my thoughts today. The meaning of our grief is the same.”
Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain tied the knot in February 1992 on Waikiki Beach in Hawaii and welcomed Frances Bean in August that same year.
Two years later, the Nirvana frontman died by suicide in April 1994, leaving behind his wife to raise their only child.
She is now married to Tony Hawk’s son Riley Hawk.
