According to O’Connor’s death certificate, she passed away from asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), according to the Irish Independent.
The cause of death listed on the certificate is “exacerbation of low grade lower respiratory tract infection along with bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,” according to the outlet.
The Inner South London coroner was contacted by News for comment; however, no response has been received as of yet.
O’Connor had been afflicted with a respiratory tract illness before she passed away.
At the age of 56, the vocalist of “Nothing Compares 2 U” passed away on July 26, 2023.
The singer’s family announced her loss to the news at the time, saying, “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Sinéad.” “Her friends and family are inconsolable and have asked for discretion during this extremely trying period.
After O’Connor passed away, celebrities including Toni Collette, Melissa Etheridge, and Ice T showered her with tributes and awards.
The National Wax Museum Plus in Dublin revealed a wax figure honoring the singer on the anniversary of her passing, but the announcement sparked criticism.
According to the Irish Times, John O’Connor, O’Connor’s brother, described the figure’s appearance as “hideous” and “inappropriate” in an interview with the Liveline radio program.
