Katie Price fans slam Dwight Yorke for leaving star to raise Harvey alone

Katie Price fans have flocked to social media to praise her for raising Harvey Price as a single mum and slated footballer Dwight Yorke for not helping her.

BBC viewers were left in adoration of Pricey after her documentary Harvey and Me followed her day to day life raising her disabled son.

Now 18, Harvey is technically an adult but due to his multiple disabilities still has the cognitive ability of a seven year old.

He also suffers from rare condition Prader-Willi.

Katie, 42, explained that his complex needs mean she never knows how he will react and showed how her home is covered in holes from where the 24 stone lad has lashed out.

Since Harvey was born, Dwight has decided not to be in his life – a decision which enraged viewers.

Taking to social media, one person said: “Dwight Yorke should be sick watching Katie Price putting him to shame.”

“Even though Dwight Yorke doesn’t want to be a part of Harvey’s life where are his aunties, uncles and cousins on his dad’s side?” another added.

Meanwhile, a third continued: “Hope Dwight Yorke is watching #harveyandme #katieprice.”

A rep for Dwight Yorke has been contacted by Daily Star for comment.

Speaking on Sky News in 2009, Dwight told Kate Burley: “I have made mistakes along the way, sure I would love to turn the clock back.”

Asked what he would have done differently, Dwight replied: “Probably have a lot… a stable family before I even think of having a child.

“Get into a more serious relationship. My relationship wasn’t stable at all, we both knew that.”

Going deep into the heart of the split, Kate continued: “Do you regret asking Katie to have an abortion.”

Dwight replied: “In some way but what I see of Harvey now, all I want to do is to have an input in my son and his upbringing.

“Unfortunately that has been taken away from me in many ways. In ways that I don’t have enough access to him.”

Katie has since publicly asked for Dwight to reach out.

Taking to Instagram in December 2019, Katie shared a video of Harvey asking him to ‘contact his son’.

In the clip she asked their son: “Harvey, who do you want to write a message to on Instagram”.

Harvey replied: “Daddy Dwight.”

Katie then asks: “What do you want to say?”

Harvey adds: “I love you Daddy Dwight you look beautiful”.
