Farrah Abraham stirred up controversy on Twitter when she posted a photo from her grandfather's funeral.

On Wednesday, the former Teen Mom returned to Iowa with her daughter, Sophia, to attend the funeral and wake of her grandfather, and during the events, she took a few photos, which she later shared online.

"Birth & burial, So much love & a family who was touched by you.You are the best man we knew [love] you Grandpa #Heaven," Abraham wrote on Twitter, along with three photos, one of which featured her deceased grandfather in an open casket.

Ever since Abraham sold her sex tape in early 2013, fans have been highly critical of her decisions. From her sex toy line to her erotic trilogy, fans have been left in shock, worrying about how her choices will impact her young daughter, Sophia. So, when Abraham posted her latest photos, fans immediately reacted badly, slamming the reality star for exposing her dead grandfather in a moment that should have been kept private.

"OMG did you really post a picture if your gramps in an open casket???? Um that's so unnecessary," one follower wrote. Another said, "I think the picture of the open casket is a bit unnecessary."

Other Twitter users slammed Abraham for being "morbid" and "tacky."

Despite the backlash, Abraham left the photo on her account and didn't bother to respond to her critics. Instead, she re-tweeted a fan comment about her book and posted another photo of herself and 5-year-old Sophia before leaving her hometown.
