By Sinead O’Connor the cause of death was revealed a year after his tragic death… with his death certificate listing multiple respiratory problems, according to reports.
O Irish Independent reports that O’Connor died of COPD — chronic obstructive pulmonary disease — aggravated by bronchial asthma. She was also suffering from a respiratory tract infection, a contributing factor.
Although British authorities announced in January that O’Connor died of natural causes — with no foul play suspected — the exact cause was unknown until this week.
As we told you… Sinéad was found unanswered in her south-east London flat last year. Efforts were made to revive her but it was too late.
O’Connor suffered from mental health issues for years… saying Doctor Phil she tried to take her own life at least eight times. Her 17-year-old son Shane committed suicide in early 2022, with Sinéad tweeting that she had “been living as an undead night creature ever since.”
However, it appears that mental health played no role in his death.
