Police say the death of Sinéad O’Connor is not being treated as suspicious following the discovery of her body on Wednesday.
The Irish singer and activist, best known for the song ‘Nothing Compares 2 U’, died age 56 at her home in London.
Police say she was found “unresponsive” and “pronounced dead at the scene” and her family had been notified.
Officers added that a file will be prepared for the coroner.
Her family announced the news on Wednesday evening “with great sadness”, saying “her family and friends are devastated”.
Tributes have been pouring in for the Grammy Award-winning artist, including from singer Annie Lennox, who shared a poetic tribute to O’Connor, calling her “fierce and fragile… impulsive, bold and beautiful… with an incredible voice”.
