COURTNEY LOVE was pressured to abort her child with late rocker KURT COBAIN - because doctors feared her drug use would harm her unborn baby, a new book claims.
In Bumping Into Geniuses, former Warner Bros. Records boss Danny Goldberg claims medics were so worried about Love's heroin use during her pregnancy, they offered her an abortion.
Goldberg claims doctors "tried to give clinical advice, suggesting to Courtney that it was not a great idea to have a baby while dealing with addiction".
But the request did not bode well with Love.
Goldberg - who managed Cobain's band Nirvana - writes, "(The doctor) suggested that it might not be safe for the baby, and Courtney, who was only six weeks pregnant, went into a confrontational mode. 'Is that a medical fact, or is that just your opinion? I want to see it in a medical book.' She was interested in medical facts, not a sermon. (The doctor) sheepishly acknowledged that at this early stage of pregnancy, a woman could discontinue heroin use with no physical or psychological damage to the foetus. Courtney looked triumphant as she towered over the doctor seated at his desk."
Love did stop using heroin and gave birth to Frances Bean in 1992. Cobain committed suicide two years later (94).
