COBAIN’S LITTLE GIRL LANDS CASH WINDFALL AS 18TH BIRTHDAY GIFT
Tragic KURT COBAIN’s little girl has gone from teen student to super-rich kid overnight after inheriting a large chunk of her late father’s fortun e as an 18th birthday gift.
Frances Bean Cobain hit the legal age on Wednesday (18Aug10) and will p ick up almost 40 per cent of her father’s estate, according to experts.
The teen, whose mother is rocker Courtney Love, was just about to turn two when her father killed himself in 1994.
Little is known about the reclusive rock offspring’s birthday plans - b ut she won’t be blowing out candles with her mum.
Frances was placed under the guardianship of her grandmother, Wendy O’C onnor, after falling out with Love last year (09), and the move to distan ce herself from the Hole rocker has only served to infuriate Love, who at tacked her daughter in online rants.
The 18 year old will kick off adulthood at Bard College in upstate New York next month (Sep10), and she’ll be one of the most well-off kids on c ampus thanks to a trust fund set up in her name three years after her fat her’s death.
There are no details about the amount of cash she is likely to land, bu t her mother recently claimed Frances will get $40,000 (=C2=A326,600)-a-m onth.
