Sinead O’Connor has died

She was such a talented beautiful soul.

Really struggled for years with mental health (and physical health issues) -- horrific abuse at the hands of her mother, BPD.

As she once said, she went straight from an abusive childhood into the music business (she was locked up for 1.5 years in the Magdelene Asylum as a teen for shoplifting) and never had the proper time and space to heal.

Her son died by suicide a few years ago, which gutted her.

She had a full hysterectomy recently for painful endometriosis, which triggered memories of her childhood abuse and when she was released from hospital had a breakdown threatening to kill herself on social media.

RIP, Sinead. She really had the voice of an angel.

Moreover, poor her three remaining alive children. They lost a brother, now a mother.

I am not sure what the relationships were between her kids as they didn't really grow up together. Her oldest is now 36 and has a couple children. Her daughter is 27 but grew up with her father who had custody (and who was not the father of any of the other kids). Her son Shane who died in 2022 had been in the care of children's services since 2013 when Sinaed had lost custody of him. It isn't clear who has custody of her youngest son who is now 16/17.

I didn’t really know much about her life, but wow, this is all so sad. And I’m sure losing her son was just too much.

Anyone who hasn't should watch the documentary about her "Nothing Compares" on Showtime. She was way ahead of the curve on everything and brave, so brave.
