Armed guards posted at Whitney Houston’s gravesite to ward off burglars www.privateofficer.com
Fears over her resting place were triggered after it was revealed she was buried wearing up to $300,000 of jewels and designer clothes.
The singer, who died a fortnight ago in her Los Angeles hotel room, is said to lie in a gold-lined coffin worth tens of thousands of pounds.
Her body is reported to be draped in a purple gown and is adorned with a diamond brooch and earrings and gold slippers.
Security guards have been ordered to watch over her graveside at Fairview Cemetery in Newark, New Jersey.
Armed security men around her final resting place have already turned away busloads of fans who have made “pilgrimages” to her grave.
The alert is the second trauma that Houston family have faced over the past 48 hours.
They are still upset after photos of her body lying in an open coffin were published in the US magazine National Enquirer.
