Death of Sinéad O’Connor’s son
Sinéad O’Connor, grief-stricken, attempted suicide after her son’s death. The star was placed under the supervision of doctors. According to the singer, her heir has always been prone to suicide, and this was not her first attempt to die.
“I’m sorry to disturb everyone. I am lost without my son and I hate myself. There is no point in living without it. Everything I touch is falling apart. He only had it, and now he is gone… My beautiful son, the light of my life… May he rest in peace, and may no one follow his example. My son. I love you so much,” wrote a heartbroken O’Connor.
She blamed herself for the child’s death: “It’s my fault, not someone else’s, but mine. I don’t want to live in a world without my Shane and my other kids. I am not worthy of living. That is my mistake. I’ve been crazy since I was born. It’s not the fault of my parents, family or children. God has done me wrong.”

The collapse of personal life
In 1987, the artist married drummer John Reynolds for the first time. Despite the birth of Jake’s son, the marriage barely lasted three years.
An affair with reporter John Waters brought Sinéad back down the aisle. The singer gave her husband a daughter, but this time the union broke down. The former lovers fought for custody of the heiress at court, until the vocalist agreed to move the baby to Dublin with his father.
In the nineties, the vocalist gave birth to a son Shane of musician Donal Lunny, and from an affair with Frank Bonadio, Yeshua’s heir, Francis. In 2013, the star lost custody of her son Shane.
The star’s subsequent marriages were very short-lived. She divorced Steve Cooney 11 months later, and broke up with Irish therapist Barry Herridge, whom she married in Las Vegas, after 16 days.
Health problems
In 2017, Sinéad O’Connor admitted that she suffers from bipolar disorder. She saw the roots of psychological problems in her difficult childhood. Her mother abused her. The woman treated her daughter like a boy and therefore cut her hair.
Due to gynecological problems, the singer underwent surgery to remove the uterus and took hormones. He was later diagnosed with cancer.
Sinéad said she was going to commit suicide eight times. “There’s nobody in my life except my doctor, my psychiatrist, the sweetest person on earth… And this is the only thing keeping me in life right now,” the woman said.

Throughout his life, the star tried to find solace in religion. At one point she fell into Catholicism and bore the name Bernadette Maria. Disillusioned with Christianity, in 2018, Sinéad wrote a letter to Pope Francis asking him to excommunicate her.
In 2018, after converting to Islam, he changed his name to Shuhada Davitt.
On the air of the popular late-night program, Sinéad tore up a photo of John Paul II with the words: “Fight the real enemy!”
