Irish singer Sinéad O'Connor's deathis not being treated as suspicious, London's Metropolitan Police said Thursday.

Asked for a statement on the singer's death, police said officers were called at around11:15 a.m. local time (6:15 a.m. ET) on Wednesday to "reports of an unresponsive woman at a residential address" in South London.

Officers found "a 56-year-old woman" who was pronounced dead at the scene, police said.

"A file will be prepared for the coroner," the police statement said.

The family of the artist, who skyrocketed to fame with her 1990 rendition of the Prince song “Nothing Compares 2 U,” announced her death in statement to Irish and British media Wednesday. 

“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,” the statement said. A cause of death was not given.

Her 17-year-old son, Shane O’Connor, died of an apparent suicide last year. She announced his passing in January 2022. 

The Dublin-born singer, made as many headlines for controversy as she did for her music, including boycotting the Grammys and ripping up a photo of Pope John Paul II on “Saturday Night Live” in October 1992 — a move she said was in protest of child sexual abuse in the Catholic Church. 

She was known for her iconic shaved head, punk spirit and candidness about her spiritual life, political views and struggles with mental health, which she detailed in her 2021 memoir, “Rememberings.” 

In 2018, O’Connor converted to Islam and changed her name to Shuhada.
