The London coroner’s office confirmed on Tuesday that Irish singer Sinead O’Connor, who passed away in July at the age of 56, died of natural causes. This announcement puts an end to the speculation surrounding the circumstances of her death, following her discovery at a residential property in the British capital.
The coroner’s brief statement did not provide specific details about the natural causes that led to O’Connor’s death. With this conclusion, the coroner’s office has ceased its involvement in the case, indicating no further investigations are needed.
