The Irish-born musician, 55, mourned 17-year-old Shane’s death in a string of disturbing tweets Thursday (Jan 13), in which she indicated she planned to “follow my son”.

Later that day, she added: “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have said that. I am with cops now on way to hospital. I’m sorry I upset everyone.”
