Talking to Rolling Stones magazine in an exclusive interview , 22-year-old Frances said that her father’s stardom meant “he was inescapable”.
"I was around 15 when I realized he was inescapable. Even if I was in a car and had the radio on, there's my dad,” she told the famous publication.
Frances, whose mum is Courtney Love, was not even two-years-old when the musician committed suicide at 27-years-of-age.
"He's larger than life and our culture is obsessed with dead musicians. We love to put them on a pedestal. If Kurt had just been another guy who abandoned his family in the most awful way possible... But he wasn't," she said.
The visual artist and executive producer of the documentary went on to say: "He inspired people to put him on a pedestal, to become St. Kurt. He became even bigger after he died than he was when he was alive. You don't think it could have gotten any bigger. But it did."
Talking about his death, Frances went on to say: "Kurt got to the point where he eventually had to sacrifice every bit of who he was to his art, because the world demanded it of him. I think that was one of the main triggers as to why he felt he didn't want to be here and everyone would be happier without him."
Sadly she adds: "In reality, if he had lived, I would have had a dad. And that would have been an incredible experience."
