Sinéad O'Connor admitted to hospital following son's tragic death

Sinéad O'Connor has been admitted to hospital just days after her son's tragic death.

The singer's son, Shane, was just 17-years-old when he died by suicide last week.

Sinéad took to Twitter on Thursday night to tell followers that she was on her way to a hospital with gardaí.

The tweet followed a number of worrying posts in which she suggested taking her life.
