According to People magazine, Frances Bean Cobain tied the knot with Riley Hawk on October 7, 2023.
Both of them had been brought up in the limelight - while Frances Bean Cobain is the only daughter of the late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, Riley Hawk is the son of American skateboarder and entrepreneur Tony Hawk. Given that they are both children of popular celebrities, it is no wonder they chose to keep their romantic lives lowkey.
Frances Bean Cobain’s marriage ceremony, which took place in L.A. earlier this month, was officiated by R.E.M frontman Michael Stipe, who also happens to be the late rocker’s daughter’s godfather.
The news of the couple’s marriage has taken the internet by storm since Kurt Cobain's daughter has been extremely guarded about her private life and personal affairs and does not post on social media often.
Frances Bean Cobain and Riley Hawk's dating timeline
Frances Bean Cobain and her pro skateboarder husband made their Instagram debut when Frances posted a picture of them together in January 2022. This post also came after a long social media break, showing that the American model was taking her time to focus on her personal affairs.
The caption of her Instagram post reads,
"I took a year long break from posting on Instagram which was exceptionally good for my mental, emotional & spiritual health. 2021 brought me more into the present moment than I’ve ever been, which I’m deeply grateful for."
It further states,
"I wanted to share a few moments that were captured / created this past year that brought me a great amount of joy. Here’s to hoping everyone’s 2022 is filled with authentic connections, a lot of warmth & profound discovery of self 🥂 happy new year 🎆"
In the series of snapshots that the post reveals, Frances Bean Cobain is seen getting cozy with Riley Hawk and a picture of him with her dog infront of a Christmas tree. The post shows a picture of them on vacation, relaxing on a boat, spending some quality time together. From the post’s caption, it is clear that Riley Hawk had been an integral part of Cobain’s healing journey.
The American model has had a difficult childhood growing up. She lost her father, former Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, to suicide at 1, and her mother, rock singer and guitarist Courtney Love, lost her right to custody due to substance abuse issues. However, the mother-daughter duo have now reconciled and are on amicable terms.
The 31-year-old daughter of Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain was previously married to musician Isaiah Silva from 2014 to 2017, and they parted ways because of irreconcilable differences. In the messy divorce that concluded their relationship, Cobain made it clear that Silva would not have any claim to her father’s estate, which was valued at approximately 450 million dollars.
The ex-couple had also landed in a legal battle over Cobain’s late father’s prized Martin D-18E acoustic guitar, over which she lost her right. The guitar now belongs to her ex-husband, Isaiah Silva. Frances, on the other hand, is the first wife of Riley Hawk.
