Kurt Cobain’s daughter Frances Bean shares rare peek inside secret love bubble with Tony Hawk’s son Riley
Frances Bean Cobain was photographed with her husband Riley Hawk in an extremely rare Instagram photo at their home on Monday night.
In a photo uploaded to Instagram Stories, Cobain, 31, and Hawk, 31, smile at each other on the couch as she hands him a chocolate cake with floral decorations.
Cobain is believed to have married Hawk, Tony Hawk’s son, in a ceremony officiated by Michael Stipe last October.
The artist/model, daughter of late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love, reportedly married Hawk, the son of skateboarding legend Tony, in Los Angeles last fall after obtaining a marriage license in September.
The couple walked down the aisle on October 7 and the wedding was officiated by REM frontman Michael, Frances’ godfather, TMZ reported. Frances is said to have been in a relationship with skateboarder Riley since early 2021.

She was previously married to The Eeries musician Isaiah Silva from 2014 until their divorce in 2017. It is Riley’s first marriage.
Frances, who lost her father Kurt to suicide when she was just a baby and her mother Courtney struggled with drug and alcohol abuse for years, turned 30 last year and previously admitted she wasn’t sure she would reach the milestone.
In a post on Instagram at the time, she wrote: “30!!! I made it! To be honest, 20-year-old Frances wasn’t sure if that would happen.
‘At the time, I was fueled by a deep-seated sense of self-loathing, fueled by insecurity, destructive coping mechanisms, and more trauma than my body and brain could handle. That sense was defined by the way I saw myself and the world. I felt resentment for being thrust into a life that brought so much chaos and inescapable pain.’
She added: ‘There’s a quote I hold dear by @jaiyajohn, and it’s, ‘the softer she became to herself, the softer she became to the world.’ It’s a sentiment I try to remember daily.
‘As I enter this new decade, I hope to remain gentle no matter how hard the world may feel at times, to bask in the present moment with reverence, to shower the people I am fortunate enough to love with more appreciation than words can ever do justice, to hold space for continued learning so that the growth never stops. I’m glad I’m here, and I’m glad you’re here, too.’
