Speaking after the send-off, Sinead tweeted: "We just said goodbye to our beautiful angel, Shaney. Very lovely Hindu ceremony. Shane will have loved it. He was always chanting 'Om. Shanti'. I put a few packs of fags in the coffin for him in case there’s none in heaven. He’ll have loved that too. Om. Shanti."
Sinead O'Connor had been admitted into hospital days after her son’s tragic death after sparking concern for her own safety.

Pogues singer Shane MacGowan also rushed to offer his support to the star in the past week, saying “Sinead you have always been there for me and for so many people, you have been a comfort and a soul who is not afraid to feel the pain of the suffering. I pray that you can be comforted and find strength, healing and peace in your own sorrow and loss.”
