Sinead O’Connor died from natural causes<\/p>\n
The ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’ hitmaker was found dead at her rented flat in London on 26 July aged 56, and now the Coroner has confirmed the late music legend’s cause of death.<\/p>\n
A spokesperson for Southwark Coroners Court told Express.co.uk: “This is to confirm that Ms O\u2019Connor died of natural causes. The coroner has therefore ceased their involvement in her death.”<\/p>\n
Police did not treat her death as suspicious when she was found unresponsive.<\/p>\n
The confirmation comes after her friend claimed she could have died from a \u201cbroken heart\u201d after the death of her teenage son. <\/p>\n
\nThe Irish-born star was left devastated by the passing of her boy Shane by suicide at the age of 17 in January 2022. <\/p>\n
\nSinead\u2019s friend and producer David Holmes, 54, who was working with her on her final album at the time of her death, said in the new RT\u00c9 documentary \u2018Sinead\u2019: \u201cEven though Sinead was this incredibly resilient survivor, I totally believe that people can die of a broken heart.\u201d <\/p>\n
\nBelfast-born David spent five years collaborating with Sinead on what turned out to be her final album, \u2018No Veteran Dies Alone\u2019, after the pair met at the late Shane MacGowan\u2019s 60th birthday celebration at Dublin\u2019s National Concert Hall in 2018, where Sinead performed alongside singers including Nick Cave and Bono. <\/p>\n
\nDavid said about their meeting: \u201cWe ended up backstage. I just stopped and introduced myself and said, \u2018My name is David Holmes, you probably have no idea what I do or anything about me but I would love to make an album with you about healing.\u2019 <\/p>\n
\n\u201cAt that moment wasn\u2019t a good time for Sin\u00e9ad \u2013 everybody knows she had mental health issues. <\/p>\n
\n\u201cI needed healing myself. I was going through my own experience. It\u2019s amazing what the right song or piece of music can do.\u201d <\/p>\n
\nDavid and Sinead ended up recording nine tracks together before her death. <\/p>\n
\nSinger Christy Moore, 78, also appears in the new documentary on the singer, which aired on Monday (08.01.24), and tells how her death was a \u201cterrible loss\u201d. <\/p>\n
\nThe show covers the ups and downs and controversies of Sinead\u2019s life, including the row that erupted when she famously tore up a picture of Pope John Paul II live on American TV in 1992 in protest at the Catholic church\u2019s cover-ups of child abuse.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
