Los Angeles, Dec 15 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Rock star Courtney Love has lost the custody of her 17-year-old daughter, Frances Bean Cobain. A judge has appointed Frances’ paternal grandmother and aunt as her temporary guardians on Friday. Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain’s daughter Frances Bean Cobain prefers to live with her grandmother rather than her rock star mother Courtney, after the untimely demise of her father.

According to reports, Wendy O’Connor, Cobain’s mother, and Kimberly Cobain, his sister, have been appointed temporary guardians of the seventeen-year-old Frances and her estate. They will be in charge of her education, living situation and health care until Love regains custody or she ceases to be a minor.

So when Frances turns 18 on August 18, 2010, then she can look after her own affairs and estate too. However another hearing is set for 10th February 2010.

Courtney who used to do drugs earlier said that, “Life is about choices. And I’ve chosen to move forward with my life in a healthy and positive way.”

Frances Bean, who turns 18 in August, told Harper’s Bazaar magazine last year that she doesn’t want to live in the shadow of her famous parents forever. “I get it, I really do,” she said. “But at the same time it’s creepy. These people are fascinated by me, but I haven’t done anything. If you’re a big Nirvana fan, a big Hole fan, then I understand why you would want to get to know me, but I’m not my parents.”
