Roisin Waters is the daughter of Sinead O’Connor and John Waters. She was born on March 6, 1996. As of 2022, she is 26 years old. She is a singer, guitarist, and apprentice confectioner who lives in Paris after growing up in London and Ireland.

Roisin Waters’ father John Waters is an Irish columnist and author. He started his career with music and politics magazine, Hot Press, and also wrote for the Sunday Tribune newspaper. He later edited the social magazine In Dublin, and the investigative and current affairs magazine Magill.

Roisin Waters’ father, John became a regular columnist at the Irish Times and then the Irish Independent, while authoring some works on non-fiction, and developed The Whoseday Book which raised 3 million euros for charity. He has also been a member of the Broadcasting Authority of Ireland.

John Waters was an unsuccessful independent candidate in the 2020 Irish general election for the Dún Laoghaire constituency.

Roisin is not the only child of his mother, she has three other siblings, they are Shane Lunny,  Yeshua Bonadio, and Jake Reynolds. They are all of different fathers.

On 7 January 2022, two days after Roisin Waters’ 17-year-old half-brother, Shane Lunny was reported missing from Newbridge, County Kildare, he was found dead at Bray, County Wicklow, by Irish police. Her mother, O’Connor stated that her son, custody of whom she lost in 2013, had been on “suicide watch” at Tallaght Hospital, and had “ended his earthly struggle”.

Roisin Waters’ mother, O’Connor harshly criticized Ireland’s family services agency, Tusla, and the national health authority, the HSE, with regard to their handling of her son’s case.

Three days later, O’Connor apologized to Tusla, saying “Ok, I’m gonna do the right thing here and apologize for my lashing out. Tusla is working with very limited resources. They loved Shane. They are broken-hearted. They are human. I am sorry I have upset them.” She added, “Tusla did their best. We all did: and I am deeply sorry to have blamed anyone.” Much is unknown about Rosin as she keeps her life away from social media.

Roisin’s mother, O’Connor has had four children and has been married four times. She had her first son, Jake, with her first husband, music producer John Reynolds, who co-produced several of her albums, including Universal Mother.

Reynolds and O’Connor married in 1987. Soon after the birth of her daughter Roisin in 1995, O’Connor and the girl’s father, Irish journalist John Waters, began a long custody battle that ended with O’Connor agreeing to let Roisin live in Dublin with Waters. In 1991, O’Connor had an abortion after things did not work out with the father. She later wrote the song “My Special Child” about the experience.

In mid-2001, Roisin Waters’ mother, O’Connor married British journalist Nick Sommerlad; the marriage ended in 2004. She had her third child, son Shane, in 2004 with musician Donal Lunny. In 2006, she had her fourth child, Yeshua Francis Neil Bonadio, whose father is Frank Bonadio.

O’Connor was married a third time on 22 July 2010, to longtime friend and collaborator Steve Cooney, and in late March 2011, made the decision to separate.

Her fourth marriage was to Irish therapist Barry Herridge. They wed on 9 December 2011, in Las Vegas, but their marriage ended after having “lived together for 7 days only”. The following week, on 3 January 2012, O’Connor issued a further string of internet comments to the effect that the couple had reunited.
