While most thought the OK! magazine UK edition was in poor taste - the front cover stating "in loving memory" as if Jade Goody had already passed away - the Goody family is in support of the mag's latest edition, but they weren't happy about it at first.
Some journalists and the general public were put off by OK!'s latest cover, but the magazine defends it's publication and say that no direct complaints were received by them concerning their latest issue featuring Jade Goody with "1981-2009" at the top.
Max Clifford, Jade's rep, said, originally the cover upset the family. "It wasn't right. It reads like an obituary. They went too far and they got it wrong. But there's now been an apology from the editor to those close to Jade.
"They [OK!] did it with the best intentions. And you have to take into account that over the previous few weeks they've covered Jade's wedding and the christening and she's loved it. But this didn't work and now they've apologized to the family."
Later, the Goody family said they were "extremely grateful" for the support they've received from OK! "during this distressing period."
Well, the family received an apology, and are now fine with it, so, I guess that is all that matters, regardless of what others think.
Jade is hanging on, bless her soul, and on Tuesday, she asked her family for one final party. She's definitely a fighter - her boys will grow up knowing their mother was a brave lady.
