Following the news of Shane’s passing, O’Connor’s management cancelled all of her upcoming gigs and appearances.

“Thank you to Sinéad’s friends and fans whose support and understanding we hold in the highest esteem throughout this period.
“The love being shown has been a source of great comfort and peace for Sinéad.”
O’Connor had been candid about her mental health struggles in the past, even telling Dr. Phil 2017 she’d attempted suicide 8 times in a year.
At the time of her death, police in London responded to a report of an unresponsive woman.
When they arrived at her residence they found the singer had already passed. Attempts were made to revive her, but they were unsuccessful.
Authorities have now confirmed that O’Connor died of natural causes.
