The late TV icon's assistant Kiersten Mikelas has been posting to White's nearly 2 million Instagram followers (https://www.instagram.com/bettymwhite) since White died on Dec. 31. "It doesn’t have to be like this," says Olivia Craighead. "When a celebrity dies, their social accounts should go with them. No one was clamoring to see an old photo of White dressed in her volunteer services uniform for Memorial Day. Just like no one needs Joan Rivers’s daughter Melissa to occasionally hop onto her late mother’s Twitter account to share a throwback photo of Joan with Howard Stern. Let these women rest."
