Sinéad O’Connor, an activist, and musician from Ireland, passed away at the age of 56.
In a statement, the singer’s family said: “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Sinéad.
“Her family and friends are devastated and have requested privacy at this very difficult time.”
She was best known for her single Nothing Compares 2 U, released in 1990, which went on to hit number one around the world.
The singer had a challenging upbringing. She was born Sinead Marie Bernadette O’Connor in December 1966 in Glenageary, County Dublin.
She spent her adolescent years at Dublin’s An Grianan Training Centre, which was formerly one of the notorious Magdalene Laundries and was built to house young girls who were believed to be promiscuous.
O’Connor’s musical career began when a nun purchased her a guitar and connected her with a music tutor.
