Sinead O'Connor back with her husband, Christmas gift of crack now forgiven

There was a tear in the eye of a surprised nation last week when it was revealed Sinead O'Connor had split up with her husband of 16 days. People simply refused to believe that the singer's attempt to buy drugs on her wedding night, a trip that 'went badly wrong' and ended up with her and her new husband (a drugs counsellor) being handed a bag of crack was to blame for the split.

Everyone figured it must be some otherworldly, malevolent force, or a string of cosmically unfortunate incidents rather than just Sinead's sky-high spike of momentary selfishness that was keeping them both from being truly happy. Except Sinead that is. Sinead knew she'd been a rascal.

Luckily though it seems that's all behind her now as, according to her OVER 18s ONLY Twitter, she has made up with Barry Herridge and they are now just like every other pair of newlyweds: living together, having lots of sex, and going to counselling.
