But is a legal battle with a former lover also responsible for her desperate state?<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Sinead O\u2019Connor, 50, left fans and friends rattled when she posted a 12-minute clip onto Facebook on Aug. 7 in which she tearfully explains her excruciating battle with suicidal thoughts. \u201cI am now living in a Travelodge motel in the a**e end of New Jersey,\u201d she states. \u201cI\u2019m all by myself. And there\u2019s absolutely nobody in my life except my doctor, my psychiatrist \u2013 the sweetest man on earth, who says I\u2019m his hero \u2013 and that\u2019s about the only f***ing thing keeping me alive at the moment\u2026 and that\u2019s kind of pathetic.\u201d Truly devastating. It\u2019s possible her anguish has some roots in a legal battle that\u2019s currently raging in the Irish court system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">When Sinead was 17, she met a man named Fachtna O\u2019Ceallaigh, now 70. He became her lover and manager, helping guide her career to worldwide acclaim. However, in 2012 they parted ways and Fachtna is currently claiming that the \u201cNothing Compares 2 U\u201d singer ended their business relationship without warning and later defamed him in a note on her website, according to the Daily Mail. Fachtna, who also managed U2, is now seeking $586,615 in damages. It\u2019s hard to imagine this legal dispute isn\u2019t playing a role in Sinead\u2019s highly publicized struggled with mental illness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt;color: #000000\">Sinead has denied Fachtna\u2019s claims in the past. Her lawyer defended the songstress at the case\u2019s pretrial in Dublin\u2019s High Court just ten days ago, arguing that the singer\u2019s mental state prohibits her from defending herself. Since she posted her gut-wrenching clip, fans have come out in droves to show their love for the Irish singer. Hopefully, with their support, she can stay safe as this trial progresses!<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Source:\u00a0http:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/2017\/08\/08\/what-caused-sinead-oconnor-breakdown-suicidal-ex-lover\/<\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/celebrities\/sinead-oconnors-emotional-breakdown-explained.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sinead O\u2019Connor shocked fans on August 7 with a 12-minute clip on Facebook in which she revealed thoughts of suicide.
