Who are Sinead O’Connor children?
Sinead O’Connor‘s children are Shane Lunny, Jake Reynolds, Roisin Waters and Yeshua Bonadio.

After her marriage to her first husband ended, Sinéad started seeing Irish journalist John Waters, and the pair had a daughter Roison, 25, in March 1995.

Shane was found dead at age 17 two days after he had gone missing on January 6, 2022, via The Guardian.
