AceShowbiz - Sinead O'Connor was found unresponsive by authorities in a London flat on July 16, just weeks after she had moved to the city. In a statement, the Metropolitan police revealed that officers were called at 11.18am on Wednesday to reports of an "unresponsive woman" at a residential address in the Herne Hill area of south London. "Officers attended. A 56-year-old woman was pronounced dead at the scene. Next of kin have been notified. The death is not being treated as suspicious. A file will be prepared for the coroner," the statement added.

Sinead's passing came after her 17-year-old son, Shane, died by suicide in January of 2022. The "Nothing Compares 2 U" singer sparked concern when she wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter, "I've decided to follow my son. There is no point living without him." Earlier that month, Shane further expressed her sorrow in her final tweet which read, "Been living as undead night creature since. He was the love of my life, the lamp of my soul."
