Courtney Love tears up about life with Kurt Cobain in new docu

Rock musician Courtney Love was teary eyed as she spoke about her life with late husband Kurt Cobain in a new documentary.

Love, 45, recalled the pain of their courtship in the Behind The Music special, which debuted in America on June 21, and confessed she struggled to cope with criticism levelled at her and her lover’s wild ways.

“It’s really hard sometimes when everyone in the world is picking on you and that’s what started happening… That really, really hurt my feelings; it was horrible,” the Daily Express quoted her as saying.

“It took a long time to adapt to it and that was trauma… I didn’t ask to be hated,” she revealed.

And she started sobbing again when she recalled the extent of her suicidal husband’s drug use.

“He’d pass out and seek oblivion and I’d have to f**king slap him and put pins in his balls and put ice cubes everywhere and it started to p**s me off… I started resenting that; I didn’t like being a nursemaid,” she recalled.

“He once overdosed on the floor in front of his mother and sister and I went to do all the s**t you do when someone overdoses and I look up and they’d taken off,” she added.
