John TravoltaThe Bahamas health minister has blasted funeral home workers for leaking the cause of Jett Travolta's death, insisting it was in breach of strict confidentiality rules.

Insiders at the mortuary where the body of John Travolta's 16-year-old son was kept following his death in the Caribbean country on Friday, spoke out on Monday, just hours after an autopsy took place, to reveal that he died from a seizure.

Politician Dr. Hubert Minnis is furious the information was made public so soon after the death, and before Travolta and his wife Kelly Preston were able to comment on the findings.

Speaking on U.S. breakfast TV program The Today Show, Minnis says, "I was somewhat amazed that the funeral director or someone leaked the report. It's strictly confidential and the family should be in the position to release the report."

Travolta and Preston returned home to their Ocala, Florida home on Monday with the ashes of the teenager, following his cremation. Funeral plans have yet to be announced, but a ceremony is expected to take place later this week.
