Last month, Mr Trump played O'Connor's best-known song Nothing Compares 2 U at a campaign event in Maryland.

The singer's estate told BBC News it was "no exaggeration to say that Sinéad would have been disgusted, hurt, and insulted" by his use of her music.

Mr Trump is running to be the Republican presidential candidate ahead of the US election in November.

A joint statement from O'Connor's estate and her longtime label Chrysalis Records said: "Throughout her life, it is well known that Sinéad O'Connor lived by a fierce moral code defined by honesty, kindness, fairness, and decency towards her fellow human beings.
