Irish singer-songwriter Shuhada Sadaqat was born Sinéad Marie Bernadette O’Connor on December 8, 1966.
The Lion and the Cobra, her debut album, reached the international charts when it was published in 1987. When I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got, her second album was released to rave acclaim and went on to become her biggest hit, selling more than seven million copies globally. The Billboard Music Awards named its lead hit, “Nothing Compares 2 U” (written by Prince), the top global single of 1990.
Who was Sinéad O’Connor’s son Shane Lunny and cause of death?
Shane Lunny was Sinead’s third child. She had her third child in 2004 with musician Donal Lunny.
Shane, her 17-year-old son, was discovered dead by the police in Bray, County Wicklow, on January 7, 2022, two days after he had been reported missing from Newbridge, County Kildare.
O’Connor said that her son, whose custody she had lost in 2013, had “finished his earthly struggle” when he was on “suicide watch” at Tallaght Hospital. Regarding how they handled her son’s case, O’Connor criticised both Ireland’s national health authority, the HSE, and the family services agency, Tusla.
