Sinead O'Connor's cause of death has now been confirmed, months after she died.The coroner confirmed to the Daily Express that the singer died of natural causes in July 2023.The confirmation follows shortly after her friend and producer David Holmes claimed that the singer tragically ‘died of a broken heart’ after the tragic death of her 17 year old son Shane.

The Irish music legend died at the age of 56, just one year after her son tragically passed away. Speaking on the RTÉ production, David shared: "Even though Sinéad was this incredibly resilient survivor, I totally believe that people can die of a broken heart." Shortly after her sons death, Sinéad revealed she's been admitted to hospital, explaining she felt responsible for the death of her child, as she wrote his "death is no ones fault but mine." As a result of his death, last year she announced the cancellation of all upcoming tour dates as she continued to grieve.

She had been due to perform at events including the Galway International Arts Festival, but told fans that she would not be returning to the stage until at least 2023.

A statement shared on her official website read: "We would like to respectfully announce that due to the ongoing bereavement process, Sinéad has been advised it would be healthier for her to take the remainder of this year off and we hope to reschedule shows for 2023 when she is feeling stronger." Sinead's family confirmed the news that she had died in a heartfelt statement in July 2023, where they told Irish media that they were "devastated".They said: "It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Sinéad.
