Mom-of-four O'Connor was ordained a priest by a Catholic sect during the
1990s.
But the Irish singer has changed faiths and her name to Shuhada
Davitt.
Sinead, who has struggled with mental health issues, told fans: "This is to announce that I am proud to have
become a Muslim."

A quick note from Tim:
She was NOT ordained a priest by a Catholic sect. She was ordained by the Irish Orthodox Catholic and Apostolic Church, which is in no way associated with the Catholic Church. It's a sect with roots in eastern Orthodox Christianity, not Catholicism. This is not an "Eastern Rite" faith in communion with the Catholic Church, but a schismatic entity fully outside of the Catholic faith.
