Frances lost her father at an early age when she was only two years old. She was thus raised by her mother, her paternal grandmother and her aunts. In 2006, the Elle magazine photographed Frances in her father’s famous pajama pants and cardigans. This was featured as part of an article which covered children of rock stars in their parent’s clothes. Frances on this occasion said that she decided to wear her dad’s pajama pants as her dad got married wearing those so they always had a special relevance to her.

She acquired her wealth after she inherited 37% of her late father’s property in 2010. She also worked as an intern for the Rolling stone magazine. Frances appeared as the guest artist for the song “My space”. She debuted her collection of artwork named Scumfuck at a gallery in Los Angeles. She has been in the media and has given few interviews. In one of them, Frances expressed her disgust over the way in which media portrays her mother in the wrong way. This pains her, she said. In 2011, it was announced that she was engaged to the musician Isaiah Silva.
