Singer Sinéad O'Connor died of natural causes, a coroner in the UK has confirmed.
The 'Nothing Compares 2 U' singer died in July aged 56, after being found unresponsive at her London home.
No medical cause for her death was given at the time, with a London Coroner's Court saying a post mortem would be conducted and the results could take several weeks.
The coroner has now confirmed she died of natural causes and said it was no longer investigating her death.

Her 1990 rendition of 'Nothing Compares 2 U' was a chart topper and earned her three Grammy awards.
The track made her a global star, partly due to its iconic video.
She also hit the headlines when in 1992, she ripped up a picture of Pope John Paul II live on US television.
Seven years later, she was ordained as a priest by a breakaway church in Lourdes.
She was also known for her outspoken views on subjects such as religion, war and feminism.
In a 2015 interview with Newstalk's Tom Dunne, she revealed her pre-gig ritual.

"Once I hear the first note of the first song, then I know it's gig time," she said.
As someone who never did a soundcheck, Sinéad said her pre-gig playlist is the most important preparation.
"Rasta music moves me in a way that it uplifts me," she said. "I feel like I’m not going to be on my own... they’re always songs about how God is with these people in terrible circumstances.
"If you're nervous, or you've reason to be frightened, you listen to those tunes. They move you in a way that makes you feel powerful."
Sinéad's Rastafari music included 'Earth’s Rightful Ruler' by Peter Tosh, 'Give Thanks and Praise' by Bob Marley and 'Rastafari' by Buju Banton.
“The Buju Banton tune is the only song I want played at my funeral, whenever that happens,” she added.
Tributes to the singer rolled in from across the globe at the time of her death, with President Michael D Higgins stating his first reaction "was to remember her extraordinarily beautiful, unique voice."
