Courtney Love loses custody of daughter

Read More ]"/> Rock singer Courtney Love has lost custody of her teenage daughter, court papers have revealed.

Frances Bean Cobain – Love’s 17-year-old daughter with Kurt Cobain – is now being cared for by the late Nirvana frontman’s mother and sister.

The reasons behind the change of custody are not clear.

Documents filed at Los Angeles Superior Court on Friday show that Wendy O’Connor, Kurt’s mother, and Kimberly Dawn Cobain, his sister, have been named temporary guardians.

The papers state their role is to ‘provide for temporary care, maintenance and support’ and ‘protect property from loss or injury’.

A hearing to appoint a ‘general guardian’ is pending, according to the documents.

It is not the first time Love, who previously fronted rock band Hole, has lost custody of Frances Bean.

The Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services stepped in in 2003, after the troubled singer was treated for an accidental overdose of OxyContin medication.
