Frances Bean was less than two years old when her father, Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, was found dead in his Seattle home in what was officially ruled a suicide. Her mother is former Hole frontwoman Courtney Love.
According to Rolling Stone, Del Rey posted a series of tweets, which have since been deleted, voicing her regret over the Guardian interview while claiming to have been misquoted.
Frances Bean has responded to backlash from some of Del Rey's fans, as she claims to be looking out for Del Rey's best interest.
"I have no animosity towards Lana," she wrote, "I was just trying to put things in perspective from personal experience."
I'm not attacking anyone. I have no animosity towards Lana, I was just trying to put things in perspective from personal experience.
