Sinéad O’Connor Enters Rehab

Sinéad O’Connor Enters Rehab
 

The Irish singer Sinéad O’Connor entered rehab, according to her Twitter post.

The 53-year-old wrote that she would be postponing her tour until 2022 to begin mental illness and drug abuse treatment. She stated, “I had a very traumatic six years, and this year was the end of it but now recovery starts. I would ask you please to be supportive and understanding and to hold onto your tickets for 2022 because I will be back with a new album and tour.”

We are so glad that Sinéad O’Connor entered rehab and is taking the time to heal. The singer continued on in her Twitter thread to say that she will be beginning her year-long addiction treatment in Ireland next week.
