Sean and Marie O’Connor welcomed Sinéad Marie Bernadette into the world in Dublin, Ireland, on December 8, 1966. His father was an engineer who eventually graduated from law school and held the position of Chairperson of the Irish Divorce Action Group. He had a stay-at-home mother. Sinéad was born into a difficult family. She was eight years old when her parents got divorced, and her mother was handed custody of the three older children. When she was 13 years old, her father was granted custody of them following a protracted legal battle. Sinéad alleges that she and her siblings experienced physical abuse and violence while living with her mother. Since then, she has spent her entire life advocating for and speaking out against the reduction of child abuse.
