Katie Price voices fears for son’s health: ‘What I’m worried about is him having a heart attack’

  • Katie Price has voiced health concerns for her 24-year-old son, Harvey, saying he is at risk of having a heart attack.
  • Harvey was diagnosed at a young age with Prader-Willi syndrome, a rare genetic condition which can cause learning difficulties, behavioural challenges and physical symptoms. He is also autistic and blind with septo-optic dysplasia.
  • “I’m not worried about his eyesight. What I’m worried about is him having a heart attack, his obesity. He weighs just under 30 stone,” she told Andrew Gold’s Heretics podcast.
  • She added: “I’ve tried going private with him to start him on Mounjaro. It’s easy for me to just give it, but because of his other medication, you have to have all the team tick it off.”
  • Price described the physical difficulties Harvey experiences, including breathlessness. “I bathe him twice a day and it breaks my heart seeing him get in and out of the bath because he’s so big and heavy,” she said.
