"This week has broken me," wrote Sinead on Facebook, after several other posts about her recent court fight for visitation rights to see her youngest son. "The last two nights have finished me off.

The 48-year-old mother of four — who once famously tore up a photo of Pope John Paul II during an appearance on "Saturday Night Live" — also recently announced that she was retiring from performing.
