On February 24th, 1992 - just 4 days after his birthday - Kurt Cobain married Courtney Love at Waikiki Beach in Honolulu, Hawaii.
The couple welcomed their first and only child, Frances Bean Cobain into the world later that year - on August 18.
Sadly - two years later - Kurt took his own life on April 5, 1994.
Earlier this week - Love marked the 28th anniversary of her marriage to the iconic grunge rocker with an emotional tribute on her Instagram account.

28 years ago
I recall feeling , deeply , delighted , dizzy , so in love, and knowing how lucky I was . This man was an angel. i thank him for looking out for me , many parts of the the last 28 years have been torturous chaotic and uphill, and in public? That is the darkest shit imaginable, it almost tapped my resilience , almost . but between Kurt’s strange amazing divinity , and the honor of a few true friends , the gift of desperation and sobriety . Of a Higher power and of love , and of empathy , I’m here now. It’ll be ok ,fuck , I see him on the shore . Rocking in the free world. My husband.
