Four months before her tragic death, Sinéad O’Connor made her last public appearance at the RTÉ Choice Music Prize.

The legendary Irish singer was all smiles in her final photos, looking happy and healthy as she accepted the award for Best Irish Classic Album.

The trophy was given in honor of “I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got,” which was released in 1990.

“You’re very welcome in Ireland,” O’Connor told “each and every member of Ireland’s refugee community” while onstage during the March ceremony.

O’Connor called Shane the “love of [her] life,” concluding, “We were one soul in two halves. He was the only person who ever loved me unconditionally. I am lost in the bardo without him.”

She included a throwback photo of herself and Shane in the emotional social media upload.

As celebrities from Melissa Etheridge to Public Enemy honor O’Connor, Morrissey slammed those who didn’t “have the guts to support her when she was alive” in an impassioned post on his website.

The 64-year-old, wrote, “There is a certain music industry hatred for singers who don’t ‘fit in’ (this I know only too well), and they are never praised until death — when, finally, they can’t answer back.”
