O’Connor was greatly affected by the loss of her son

Sinead O’Connor led a difficult life, filled with heartbreaking moments. One of her great losses came in 2022, following her 17 year old son’s death. “Been living as undead night creature since,” she wrote at the time. “He was the love of my life, the lamp of my soul. We were one soul in two halves. He was the only person who ever loved me unconditionally. I am lost in the bardo without him.”

O’Connor discussed some of her struggles in a memoir titled “Rememberings,” including running away from her mother’s home to live with her father at the age of 13, and being sent to an asylum to raise “unruly” women. She acquired fame with the release of her 1987 album “The Lion and the Cobra.” In 1990, she became a global icon with the song “Nothing Compares 2 U.”
