Frances Bean Cobain Welcomes Son Ronin Walker

Frances Bean Cobain, daughter of the late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, and her husband Riley Hawk, son of skateboarding legend Tony Hawk, have welcomed their first child, a son named Ronin Walker Cobain Hawk, born on September 17, 2024. The couple announced the birth via Instagram with a series of black-and-white photos, expressing their immense love for their newborn. The announcement garnered congratulatory comments from family and friends, including Tony Hawk, who humorously referred to Ronin as his 'favorite grandson.' Frances and Riley, who married in October 2023 in a ceremony officiated by R.E.M. frontman Michael Stipe, had not previously announced the pregnancy, surprising many fans with the news. The couple's relationship became public in early 2022 after Frances took a break from social media.
