Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A court filing shows the only daughter of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love has been placed in a temporary guardianship.
The filing states Cobain's mother Wendy O'Connor and his sister Kimberly Dawn Cobain are now caring for 17-year-old daughter Frances Bean Cobain.
The filings do not mention Love or give a reason for the guardianship.
A three-page order is all that is publicly available.
Attorney Geraldine Wyle, handling the case for the mother and sister, calls it a private family matter and said no other comment would be issued.
An email message to Love's publicist Alan Nierob seeking comment was not immediately returned.
The court order, which is valid until February, grants Cobain's mother and sister no control over a trust established by the Nirvana frontman for his daughter.
