‘Hoarder’ Frances Bean Cobain

Frances Bean Cobain’s house was "virtually unlivable", friends of her estranged husband have claimed.
The 24-year-old artist – who is the daughter of Courtney Love and the late Kurt Cobain – split from Isaiah Silva in March after less than two years of marriage, and though the musician was recently ordered to leave their home, pals insist he wasn’t upset by the court ruling as Frances’ "online shopping habit and hoarding" had already forced him out.
A source told the New York Post newspaper’s Page Six column: "The weird truth is that Frances Cobain’s house is virtually unlivable because of Frances’ hoarding.
"Frances spends her days doing lots and lots of online shopping.
"Virtually every room is filled with boxes of stuff Frances has ordered from online retailers and never even bothered to open – shoes, clothing, art supplies, music equipment, and even several large-screen TVs."
The insider claims Isaiah was already splitting his time between Frances’ house and his parents’ home before the court made their recent ruling.
The court also ruled Frances must pay her estranged husband $12,000 a month in spousal support for four months until they reach a final divorce settlement.
And Frances must also pay $15,000 to cover the 31-year-old musician’s attorney’s fees.
The former couple were also ordered to undergo mediation to help resolve their divorce.
The temporary ruling comes after Isaiah previously requested $25,000 a month in spousal support.
The couple had no pre-nuptial agreement and he wants half of the money she made during their marriage.
He also claims he left a steady job when they tied the knot because Frances, who is worth more than $100 million, offered to look after his bills.
Frances gained access to a trust fund in August 2010 when she turned 18, which is said to have included 37 per cent of her late father’s estate, following his suicide in 1994 aged 27.
