Sinead O’Connor gained fame worldwide with her hit “Nothing Compares 2 U”, which topped the prestigious Billboard charts, among others. Although the song was written by the American star Prince with his band The Family in mind, it is the Irish singer’s version that remains the most popular to this day.
A year after Sinead O’Connor’s death, the star’s cause of death has been confirmed
In Poland, O’Connor is often associated with her performance on “Saturday Night Live” in 1992, where she tore up a photo of John Paul II. The artist expressed her opposition to abuses in the Catholic Church. The singer died on July 26, 2023 at the age of 56.
After a year since the artist’s death, the cause of her death has finally been officially confirmed. According to Deadline, the singer “died of natural causes,” although she had previously struggled with several respiratory ailments. London police confirm that the death was not considered a crime.
O’Connor struggled with lung disease
Before her death, O’Connor struggled with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, which often manifests only after a significant portion of the lungs has already been destroyed. In addition, the artist suffered from asthma.
We remind you that on the day of her death, the Irish singer was found “unconscious” in her London apartment. O’Connor’s funeral took place on August 8 in Bray, County Wicklow. The event was attended by, among others, the President of Ireland, Michael D. Higgins. The artist was laid to rest at Dean’s Grange Cemetery in Dún Laoghaire–Rathdown.
