Courtney Love shared an emotional message on Instagram in honor of what would have been her late husband Kurt Cobain's 51st birthday.

Love posted a black-and-white photo of her and Cobain on Tuesday morning with a caption that reads, "happy birthday baby god I miss you."

Cobain, the lead singer of the alt-rock band Nirvana, shot and killed himself in 1994. 

Last year, Love discussed with "Good Morning America" the difficulties of raising her daughter, Francis Bean, into a "normal childhood, as normal as possible for living in Beverly Hills," without Cobain.

"She's enigmatic like he was," Love said. "She's got a very dry, kind of, sick sense of humor that he had. I mean he had a really sick sense of humor, but dry."
