The magazine captioned the edition: ‘Whitney: The last photo!’

Whitney’s family is said to be furious about the publication and wondered how the photo became a public property after all precautions taken by the security company contracted to work with funeral home that handled the late singer’s body.

The publication has stirred a lot of backlash on social network sites with people expressing their shock, and dismay with the magazine over lack of their respect for a dead person’s privacy.
