Sinead O'Connor has tweeted that her marriage to husband number four is back on after separating from him for a second time.

The singer married drugs counsellor Barry Herridge in Las Vegas in December but the couple separated after just 16 days. They reconciled but separated again.

In a series of Twitter posts today, she said: "Yay. My sweet husband is coming home. Very happy girl. Must get pretty-fied by 8pm. Thank u God. Me love me sweet husband so bad. Yay!! :)

"Sorry if too much info or too personal.. Just.. Me so happy. Wus sad without him. Love him rotten bad. So me all happy now.. Hurray!!!"

O'Connor blamed the split on the harsh treatment of the Irish media, despite claiming that he had become nervous when she went out to find drugs on their first night of marriage.

She wrote in a statement: "His association with me became something very bad for his life. And slowly since we were married I became very ill as result of what was done to my husband and I was unable to cope. And became depressed.

"The behaviour of one particular paper resulted in very serious damage to my husband and myself personally and consequently made the marriage untenable so that it is now over and I hope the media will kindly leave the poor man alone to get on with his life."

O'Connor claims she tried to kill herself while in Los Angeles earlier this month. Last week she said she had checked into an Irish hospital to receive treatment for depression.

She tweeted: "Gonna be off radar for few weeks. But will be back. Worry not. :)

"im going to hospital. Treatment for depression. Not at all well. But they will put me back together quick. so will be back.. and smiling. Prolly 2 weeks ish.."
