Nothing Compares 2 U singer Sinéad O'Connor, 56, was found unresponsive on Wednesday morning at her flat in south London and was later pronounced dead at the address. Speaking to her Loose Women panellists and viewers at home, Coleen said: "She was around at a time when people were afraid to speak out about things that were going on and she was never afraid to speak out. And I didn't realise sadly, obviously I was a fan. I loved that, you know, her record that she had over here that was such a massive hit everywhere and I thought it was beautiful. "But I never realised what a tragic life she had until this news came out that she passed away and I read about her childhood and it was very, very, very traumatic. But the thing that saddens me the most when I see this is it was quite obvious through the years to me that Sinead was suffering with mental health and she was she was open about that, I think at the time." Coleen continued: "And whenever this happens when somebody dies that's been in the public eye, all these tributes pour out all these obituaries and tributes and how she was amazing and how she was wonderful. Which is kind of what we're doing now. Except I never knew her personally. But I always think where were all these people? "When they saw the trauma she must have been going through - I'm obviously not her family - but friends that have come out and said we were really close friends and all of that and I think I remember reading terrible things about her like 'oh, she's lost her way', 'oh, look how much weight she's put on', 'oh, she's not you know' 'why's she doing this?'. Why is she doing that? Why is she speaking nonsense){kind=link}
