Shane MacGowan fans have sent messages of condolence to the singer in hospital after his âbest friend’ Sinead O’Connor died.
The Pogues frontman was recently in intensive care as he fights his latest health battle, though what he is suffering from hasn’t been disclosed. His wife Victoria took to Instagram to reveal the Fairytale of New York singer was still in hospital, but is now on the mend.
Sharing a selfie of them together from his hospital bed hours before his close pal Sinead’s death was announced, she wrote: “A lot of the time life goes on as normal, but sometimes things happen to shake things up and not necessarily in ways that you want!”
Given fans a health update on Shane’s condition, she continued: “We have had some pretty scary health challenges in our family recently and it has been showing me that the idea of just trusting and going with the flow is not easy!!!
