Not all star children are rebels spoiled by money and world fame. There are also "white crows" among them, keeping away from prying eyes and ears. People like Frances Bean Cobain.

Beautiful life?

The famous daughter of famous parents, who did almost nothing for her popularity. It was enough to be born in the family of the idol of millions Kurt Cobain and the Hollywood "tear off" Courtney Love.

The very name of the girl automatically translates her into the status of that category of people who have a successful life! Although Francis herself claims that the attention that she gets from her father's fans and his Nirvana is absolutely not encouraging. According to her, such an increased interest in her person will be justified only when she independently achieves any heights in life.

But the life of a young girl has not always been a beautiful fairy tale. Having parents-stars, it turns out, is not so easy. You wouldn't wish the kind of childhood that little Frances Bean had on an enemy. We will talk about this further.

Unenviable childhood

August 18, 1992 - the date of the birth of baby Cobain. FrancisBean, the only daughter of her parents, first saw the light in bustling Los Angeles, where at that time the careers of her father and mother were rapidly developing. She got the first part of the name in honor of the vocalist of the Scottish indie pop band The Vaselines. Her middle name (Bean) was given to her by her godparents: Drew Barrymore and Michael Stipe.

With the birth of his daughter Kurt, they say, changed before our eyes. Having become an exemplary father, he did not leave the baby a single step, fed her, sang lullabies, rocked her at night. But happiness did not last long. Before reaching the age of two, little Francis lost her father. It happened on April 5, when his dead body, which had lain in the house for 3 days, was discovered by an electrician. According to the investigative protocol, Kurt, under the influence of heroin, smashed his head with a gun. Although the version of premeditated murder was also considered, and Courtney Love herself was on the list of suspects.

Bad good mother

Little Frances Bean Cobain, whose biography from that moment has become such that you wouldn’t wish on an enemy, was left in the care of only her mother. But it is worth paying tribute to the American social services, which did not turn a blind eye to the pre-existing, and after the death of Kurt Cobain, Courtney's problems with alcohol and drugs became more acute. Due to the mother's constant stay in rehabilitation centers, grandparents (along Kurt's line) became the second parents of baby Cobain. Frances Bean officially lost her mother already in 2009, when she was deprived of the rights to the child. But in my first interview,which the 13-year-old star daughter gave to one of the fashionable American magazines, she firmly stated that her mother was not at all as bad as the ubiquitous paparazzi told about it.

In response to all the accusations against her parents, Francis published exclusive photos in ELLE magazine, where she chose the legendary brown cardigan and checkered green and white pajama pants as an outfit. It was in this attire that her father was at the wedding ceremony with Courtney Love.

True daughter of her parents

This is the dubious story of young Cobain's childhood. Francis Bean, most likely, it was under the influence of her extraordinary family that she became a real rebel. Will the star daughter repeat the path of her father? Will her addiction lead to a

alcohol to a state of constant depression and dissatisfaction? How will it all end? That's what all her friends and acquaintances used to think. Still would! Having received a pretty share of the inheritance that she inherited from her father back in 2010, she, one might say, broke loose. The constantly tipsy young lady became a regular guest of nightclubs and parties, radically changed her appearance: she got pierced, gained a dozen extra pounds, and bright pink hair became the “calling card” of the already adult Francis Bean Cobain. Tattoos, covering literally her entire body, "shone" in each new, most often candid photo shoot.

From ugly duckling to fashion diva

It's not entirely clear what happened to the extravagant one, butliterally a year later, she appeared before the cameras in a completely different guise. Well-groomed, tall (Frances Bean Cobain's height is 175 cm) and slender brunette became the face of several successful photo shoots. In 2011, no longer a baggy and unsightly teenager, but a stunning beauty "teared" the fashion industry with her photos in the style of grunge, then in the style of "old-fashion film".

Francis Bean Cobain, who took up her mind, lost weight, began to avoid social gatherings and high-profile events, and stopped giving incriminating interviews. Oddly enough, she didn't look like her mother at all. Now she is boldly called not the usual spoiled star offspring, but an artist, journalist, fashion model and even a singer. Where only 22-year-old Cobain did not try her hand! Frances Bean, apparently, has not yet decided on her calling, but has great potential.

Private

Actively looking for her place in this life, Miss Cobain does not forget about her personal life. But turning your relationships with young people into high-profile scandals is not

her style. The last event known to us on the personal front of Francis is her engagement to Isaiah Silva, which she herself announced on her Facebook page. Her chosen one is a member of the rock band "The Rambles" and looks very much like the girl's late father. They even began to call him a doppelganger of Kurt Cobain.

There was also an incident involving the "long tongue" of Courtney Love, who publicly announced her daughter's affairwith former Nirvana and Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl. Francis, who did not accept too much attention, did not even accept her mother's public apologies, but immediately turned to lawyers to officially forbid Courtney from discussing her daughter's personal life. On this, they say, the Cobain family relationship ended.
