Singer Sinéad O’Connor has been laid to rest in her beloved area of Bray.
The funeral cortege of the late singer progressed across the seafront in Bray, Co Wicklow, the area where Sinéad lived the past 15 years of her life.
Her family released a statement prior to her funeral, inviting those who “would like to say a last goodbye to Sinéad from 10.30am on Tuesday morning along the Bray Seafront”.
“Sinéad loved living in Bray and the people in it. With this procession, her family would like to acknowledge the outpouring of love for her from the people of Co. Wicklow and beyond, since she left last week, to go to another place.”
O’Connor passed away on Wednesday, July 26 following a long battle with her mental health.
In a statement, the singer’s family said: “It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved Sinéad. Her family and friends are devastated and have requested privacy at this very difficult time.”
