Junior Andre, 15, has vowed to help his mum Katie Price get Harvey’s Law through Parliament and make it illegal to troll online.
The youngster, who is the son of Katie’s first husband Peter Andre, candidly admitted while he gets trolled on a daily basis he is able to cope with the comments.
The Junior, who turns 16 in June, says he is worried others can’t take it.
Junior said: “Hate in general doesn’t bother me at all.
“For some people it really hurts them and effects them but for me it doesn’t.
“If I look at a comment that is hate it doesn’t mean anything, it is just a comment. But for some people it hurts them deep.”

Earlier this week Junior named and shamed a troll who had been flooding his Instagram DMs with vile attacks – including one message about his disabled brother Harvey Price.
“That was why I did that,” Junior continued.
“It is not good for people like that to be about. If he brought that energy to some other people who can’t take hate… that’s not good.”

Admitting he’s grown a thick skin over the years, helped no doubt due to his parent’s life in the spotlight, Junior said: “For some it cuts deep, they may want to do something to themselves like cry or hurt themselves but for me comments like that do not effect me at all. It is weird.
“I think people cope with things in different ways. I have to keep it professional – I am not going to start violating him. Some people are tapped. I can’t lie.”
Keen to highlight the positives that social media can bring, Katie’s son said in a now deleted Instagram live feed: “I appreciate all them messages I’ve had with support though.
“I get hate every day. I think loads of people do with platforms like this and this many followers.
“I didn’t want agg’ or abuse towards him.
“That’s the whole reason why we are doing Harvey’s law.
