Frances Bean Cobain’s ex husband is reportedly threatening to take legal action against Courtney Love because she tried to have him killed over Kurt Cobian's guitar, it is being claimed.
According to gossip website TMZ, Isaiah Silva has begun legal proceedings against the grunge star and actress over the flabbergasting claim that she wanted him dead.
Frances Bean Cobain married Silva in 2014, but they divorced two years later and he was controversially awarded Kurt Cobain's iconic guitar from Nirvana‘s MTV Unplugged performance in the divorce settlement, which infuriated Courtney Love.
Silvia, who was with Kurt's daughter for five years in total, claimed that Frances had given him the guitar as a gift.
TMZ reports that Silvia is claiming that Courtney Love "entered into a conspiracy with several people to break into his home, beat him up, kidnap him and try to murder him so they could gain possession of Kurt Cobain’s legendary guitar”.
In June 2016, Silva alleges that three men broke into his apartment and robbed from him, as well as assaulting him, sexually battering him, and then kidnapped and attempted to murder him.
Courtney Love has yet to publicly comment.
