Katie Price lands BBC documentary about life with her disabled son Harvey
KATIE PRICE embraces son Harvey in a touching snapshot from a new BBC1 documentary looking at their lives together.
The model says Katie Price: Harvey And Me – filming now for screening later in the year – will show how they live with his rare genetic disorder, Septo-optic dysplasia.
As well as the condition, which leaves him partially blind, Harvey has Prader-Willi syndrome, which can cause weight gain and behavioural problems, and is on the autistic spectrum.
Katie said: “I’ll be taking you behind the closed doors of mine and Harvey’s world – experience a day in the life and what our future will look like.”
It comes after The Sun revealed Katie Price was supported by her exes Peter Andre and Kieran Hayler following son Harvey’s hospital dash.
The 18-year-old needed “urgent medical attention” while celebrating sister Princess’ 13th birthday earlier this week.
Insiders told The Sun Online that both of Katie’s former husbands, Peter and Kieran, were in touch after the incident.
A source revealed: “Both Pete and Kieran messaged Katie afterwards, offering help and support.
“She’s on really good terms with them now and they were both Harvey’s stepdad once, and he’s their children’s brother.
“They were both relieved when Harvey was discharged and went home.”
The 42-year-old former glamour model will no doubt need all the help she can get after Harvey was suddenly rushed to hospital.
Katie opened up on the ordeal in an emotional YouTube video and revealed he was suffering chest pains that felt like “pins and needles”.
In the video shared to her YouTube account, she said: “(To rule out it was a blood clot) just for safety they took him to hospital and had chest x-rays and all of that, and they think he’s just got a chest infection coming.
“But luckily he’s home now, I’m glad he’s home.”
In recent months, Katie has managed to repair her turbulent relationships with her exes.
