Price son ‘brave and strong’ in hospital

KATIE Price has said her son is still in intensive care, but that he is being “brave and strong”.

Harvey, 18, suffers from partial blindness, Praderwilli syndrome, autism, and learning and behavioural difficulties, as a result of a rare genetic disorder.

TV star Price, 42, tweeted on Sunday to say he had been admitted to hospital. Yesterday she posted an update on Instagram as she thanked people for their messages.

She wrote: “I can confirm Harvey is still in intensive care. He is more comfortable.

“It’s hard due to limited visiting hours and Covid I can’t be by his bedside, but he is being brave and strong, and I’m able to face time him. I’ve let him know he has so much love and support.”

In her tweet on Sunday, she wrote: “I can confirm that Harvey is in intensive care and in the best hands. I would like to thank the ambulance services and the hospital staff for the quick response and making him stable.”

Her ex-husband, Kieran Hayler was among the people commenting on her latest Instagram update, and posted a red heart emoji. Harvey’s halfbrother Junior, 15, wrote “Love you Harv” followed by a heart emoji.

Earlier this month,

Price gave evidence to the Petitions Committee as part of its parliamentary inquiry into online abuse.

The model detailed the abuse directed online at Harvey, and told of the emotional toll it had taken on her too. She also recently announced that Harvey would be the subject of an upcoming BBC film, which will explore the realities of raising a disabled child as they approach adulthood.
