Sinead O’Connor & Barry Herridge – 16 Days


Marriage is supposed to last forever, not days. Sinéad O’Connor is an Irish singer-songwriter. Sinead married Barry on December 8, 2011, after meeting online. The couple lived together for seven days. However, their marriage only lasted for a short time. They separated after 16 days. Sinead blamed pressure and disapproval from the family and friends of her therapist’s husband.

It can indeed be scary to face a new husband and a new set of in-laws and friends who would always have a say in your relationship as if they have investments in it. The behavior triggered Sinead to take drugs the same day they were married. She also thought that they rushed into marriage without preparing for the consequences. At least, they were not abusive to each other and had decided to stay friends despite the marriage ending.
