Sinead O'Connor has written a lovely open letter to John Waters about the referendum
SINGER SINEAD O’CONNOR has penned an open letter to her former partner, columnist John Waters, that’s being shared widely on Facebook this morning.
Waters and O’Connor were in a relationship in the 1990s and have one daughter, Róisín.
Waters has since become one of the main faces of the marriage referendum’s No campaign, forming First Families First to highlight how a Yes vote “could be detrimental” to the rights of children.
Writing on Facebook late last night, O’Connor said she wanted to give Waters some “loving reassurance” in relation to comments he made on Tonight with Vincent Browne earlier this week.

O’Connor said that their daughter was the “living contradiction” to Waters’ argument:
“I love you. Please don’t worry. Just picture your own girl.”
