The death of Sinéad O’Connor in the summer of 2023 shocked the music world. Authorities have now announced that she died of natural causes.
Irish singer Sinéad O’Connor died of natural causes on July 26, 2023 at the age of 56. Immediately after the death, the authorities said that the musician’s death was “not suspicious”. Nevertheless, an autopsy was ordered. O’Connor was found lifeless in her London apartment and was pronounced dead at the scene.
“It is hereby confirmed that Ms O’Connor died of natural causes,” a statement released by the coroner’s office said, according to the BBC. With this result, the authorities have now stopped their work on this case. Those responsible did not go into the exact cause of death.

In the months before her own death, O’Connor struggled heavily with the death of her son Shane, who committed suicide in early 2022 at the age of 17. “Since then, I have lived as an undead creature of the night. He was the love of my life, the light of my soul,” the singer said in a Twitter post from July 17th.
