Four years after Frances Bean Cobain and Isaiah Silva got engaged , the young couple has finally tied the knot. E! News is reporting that Frances and Isaiah got married over the weekend in a “small and intimate” (and very secretive) ceremony. In fact, Frances reportedly kept things so low-key that her infamous mother, Courtney Love, didn’t even know she was getting married. Probably a good call if there was an open bar. “Courtney loves Isaiah, but was devastated to learn that Frances had gotten married without her knowing,” a source says. “Courtney really likes Isaiah and is very happy for Frances. Courtney is sad she wasn’t at the wedding.” Though Courtney and Frances have a famously tumultuous relationship, they appeared to have patched things up recently, and made several public appearances together to promote the Kurt Cobain documentary Montage of Heck earlier this year. Of course, during the press tour, Frances made some controversial comments that many interpreted as passive-aggressive shots at her troubled parents. Despite the snub, the insider says Courtney is “cool” with Frances’ decision to get married on the down-low: “Frances called her after but Courtney understands why she did it,” says the source. “Frances needs a man in her life and has always craved stability. She’s found it in Isaiah. This has not caused a rift between mom and daughter. Courtney was sad, but she’s cool and Isaiah is a great son-in-law.” Yes, Courtney Love is reportedly bummed. We’re sure area liquor stores and pharmacies have been put on high alert. Just kidding, Courtney! Congrats to Frances and Isaiah. Now be sure to study Frances’ parents’ marriage so that you can do the exact opposite! View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Got Married in 2015

Azealia Banks Slams Kanye West, Kendrick Lamar and Pharrell in Playboy Interview Yes, Banks posed in Playboy and yet no one talked about her naked body because she was too busy taking issue with “nonthreatening black [people] such as Pharrell and Lamar.
