London, August 26 (ANI): Jade Goody’s mother Jackiey Budden has slapped a newspaper group with a lawsuit for publishing pictures of the late reality TV star’s burial.
Mirror Group Newspapers’s Sunday tabloid The People printed shots of Goody’s funeral just a day after the service in April.
Jackiey is now suing the paper over the snaps, seeking 100,000 pounds in damages, reports the Daily Express.
The grieving mother, along with a group of Goody’s family members, has also taken picture agency NewsPics to the court over the photographs.
She blasted the company for publishing the pictures, claiming they were a “breach of confidence and an invasion of privacy.”
Goody died aged 27 after losing her battle to cervical cancer in March this year. (ANI)
