Sinead O'Connor's brutal response to Piers Morgan's TalkTV interview invite

Sinead O'Connor's brutal response to Piers Morgan's show invite has resurfaced following her tragic death aged 56.

The Irish singer's death was confirmed on Wednesday evening, sending shockwaves across the entertainment world as celebrities paid tribute to her.

One of the stars paying tribute included TalkTV star Piers, 58, who recalled his past exchanges with the late singer as he praised her for always speaking her mind.

Along with a lengthy tribute on his show, he also tweeted: "Wondrously gifted singer, and fiercely intelligent, highly amusing, complex, uncompromising, provocative woman with many demons. Knew her for 35 years & we had some ferocious spats but also some great Guinness-fuelled make-ups. She was a unique character. Sad day."

After he paid tribute to her, Sinead's tweet about turning down an interview request from him circulated online. The former Good Morning Britain presenter asked Sinead to appear on his TalkTV show to discuss the death of her 17-year-old son Shane - who tragically took his own life.

Taking to Twitter, Sinead shared a screenshot of the email she sent back to the former GMB host - captioning the image: "Piers Morgan's been trying to get me on his breakfast show since Shaney died. Here's what I emailed him in response: Hopefully you'll chortle your tea out your nose."

Sinead had penned: "Hi Piers, I think it's best I don't do your show because of the irresistible temptation I would have to point out that you're dying to be balls deep in Meghan Markle so bad it's driven you crazy, and that your dislike of Prince Harry is down to his being balls deep in her ten times a day.

"It being the case that if you were ever to get near her, which would never happen, you'd last ten seconds: and that would be that for ten days."

The presenter retweeted her tweet, responding: "Hi Sinead, a delight to hear from you and I did indeed chortle my tea out of my nose. Three things.. a) I haven't hosted a breakfast show for a year. b) I actually fancy you, not Meghan. Think it's the GI Jane hair thing. c) I was so sorry about your son. Hope you're OK."

Piers is known to have strong opinions about Meghan Markle and her husband Prince Harry, going as far as to storm off the set of GMB during a debate about her before quitting ITV entirely.

Sinead's death at the age of 56 was confirmed yesterday - with senior politicians and stars from across the world all paying tribute.

In a statement, the singer’s family said : "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."
