Sinead O'connor has reunited with her husband, a week after they split.

The 'Nothing Compares 2 U' singer wed Barry Herridge on December 8 in a ceremony in Las Vegas only to split from him just 16 days later - citing "intense pressure placed upon him" by other people - but they have now reconciled.

"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!! And... me go LA tomorrow!! hurraay!! (sic)"

While the couple are back together again, Sinead, 45, and Barry acknowledge they had a whirlwind romance and are planning to take things slowly.

She added in other tweets: "Yay!!! we decided to be boyfriend and girlfriend again an stay married but we did rush so we gonna return to b friend g friend

"an be sickenly happy an go counsellin an move in in like a yr like regular people. but stay married an we all in love an f**k every other (sic)"

Sinead - who has been married three times before - tied the knot with Dubliner Barry in a drive-through wedding at the Little White Wedding Chapel on the Las Vegas Strip, which took ten minutes.

She wore a Pink, low-cut dress which revealed her tattoos, while the groom donned a dark jacket and pink shirt.
