Kurt Cobain’s daughter Frances and Tony Hawk’s son Riley announce birth of first child

Congratulations to the new parents!

Frances, who is the daughter of Courtney Love and the late Kurt Cobain, announced on Instagram late Saturday night that she and her husband Riley, welcomed a baby boy earlier this month.

The new mum shared a series of cute black and white close-up snaps of their newborn as well as a photo of Riley lovingly gazing down at his son.

The post was captioned: “9.17.2024. Ronin Walker Cobain Hawk 🩵

“✨ Welcome to the world most beautiful son. We love you more than anything ✨.”

Tony Hawk, 56, also gushed over the new addition to the family adding a comment underneath the post, writing that Ronin was his ‘favourite grandson’.

It comes just less than a year after the 32-year-old tied the knot with the professional skateboarder as they exchanged vows on October 7, 2023.

The model was previously married to musician Isaiah Silva between 2014 to 2017 but has been in a relationship with Riley Hawk since 2021, though they only went public with their relationship in 2022.

At the time, she posted on social media after taking a year-long break to post a series of photos of the pair together alongside the caption: “I wanted to share a few moments that were captured / created this past year that brought me a great amount of joy.”

Her father Kurt Cobain, lead singer of the band Nirvana died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound in April 1994.

After Frances split from Silva the pair were locked in a legal battle over one of Cobain’s guitars which Silva eventually won. He then sold the instrument at an auction for $6 million.
