Courtney Love Flees Shocking Car Crash After Investigation

'If [Cobain] came back right now I'd have to kill him, for what he did to us,' she said. 'I'd f***ing kill him. I'd f*** him, and then I'd kill him. He tried to kill himself three times! He OD'd at least five times.'

Now sober and living in London since 2019, Love has faced her own struggles with addiction. 

She is also the subject of the documentary Antiheroine, which chronicles her relationship with Cobain, her battles with substance abuse, and the media attention she has endured over decades.

Premiering at the 2026 Sundance Film Festival, the film sees Love reflect on falling for Cobain while Hole toured with Nirvana in 1991.

'When you find somebody you really get along with and can be yourself with, it's easy,' she said.

'We knew we were in love, we knew we wanted to have a baby right away,' she added. 'The thing that got in the way was his need for total oblivion.'

Love also recounted the night Cobain died, while she was in rehab at the Peninsula Beverly Hills. 

Cobain reportedly tried to reach her, but the late-night call wasn't put through. His body was discovered three days later in the greenhouse above the garage of his Seattle home.

It's well documented that Cobain battled severe depression and long-term drug abuse. 

In March 1994, he was hospitalized in Rome after overdosing on Champagne and Rohypnol, a sedative sometimes prescribed for insomnia.

Love found him unconscious at the Excelsior Hotel, an event she later described as a possible suicide attempt, though his management team insisted at the time it was accidental.

Following his death, police reports revealed that Cobain had injected himself with a dose of heroin far exceeding what even a heavy user would typically consume. Toxicology also showed the presence of other substances in his system, including morphine, codeine and diazepam.

The King County Medical Examiner officially ruled the cause of death as a self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head.

'Kurt Cobain died by suicide in 1994,' a spokesperson for the Seattle Police Department told the Daily Mail. 'This continues to be the position held by the Seattle Police Department.'

The Daily Mail has reached out to Love's representatives for comment.
