Could not find an uglier picture of her??
Wow, I can’t believe she’s already 18. Mazal tov, Frances Bean~ she seems talented and level headed despite everything she’s been through with her family. I wish her the best. (but I agree she has nicer pics out there…)
i thought she was named after frances farmer.
same, I’ve always thought that too
courtney has said she was named after frances farmer, but maybe she was named after both of them.
Courtney and Kurt agreed on the name baby Frances if it was a girl and the name Eugene if it was a boy. I can’t recall where I read that. Oh yeah she was like 3 weeks early too. Frances’ due date was the night of the MTV music awards (Sept 9th 1992).
