In early July, Sinéad O’Connor relocated to London, moving into a delightful new apartment. She was excited about her musical endeavors and had plans to write songs, with a possibility of embarking on a tour again.
However, she had previously faced a challenging decision to cancel her live performances following the tragic loss of her 17-year-old son, Shane. Her management explained that the cancellation was necessary for her own well-being and health.
In the weeks leading up to her passing, Sinéad O’Connor shared a Twitter video showcasing the interior of her flat, where her black Martin Johnny Cash electro acoustic guitar adorned the wall. She expressed her intentions to compose fresh ‘tunes’ on that very guitar.
It was on Wednesday evening that Sinéad’s family confirmed her demise through a brief statement.
