Katie Price has spoken of the time her son Harvey Price was hauled off of a plane by armed cops after he demanded he wanted more pizza.
The former Page 3 model, 42, also known as Jordan, recalled how her 18-year-old son’s behaviour got so out of control that he had to be taken out of a separate exit to the other passengers on the EasyJet flight many years ago.
Twenty-nine stone Harvey has ADHD, autism, genetic condition Prader-Willi Syndrome and septo-optic dysplasia, which causes blindness.
Speaking to The Sun ahead of tonight’s BBC1 programme which documents her search for specialist residential colleges capable of coping with Harvey now he has turned 18, she spoke of the event.

In the clip for the show, Harvey can be seen kicking doors in one of the college centres.
Explaining the clip, Katie told the publication: “He can get a lot worse.
“I remember we were coming back from Turkey and he wanted another pizza on the plane.
“I said, ‘No we’re home now’, but he wanted to stay on holiday and stay on the plane.”

Katie continued: “So he started kicking off and everyone had to get off the plane at the back end, while I got him off the other end.”
The star revealed he then kicked all along the tube to get off the plane and even “smashed” parts before the armed police came.
Katie recalled how she explained to the officers that he has autism and that she could “deal with him”.
She said he was “spinning around trying to kick everybody”.
It comes after fans praised Katie for her decision to put Harvey in full-time care at a residential facility in order for him to live a more independent life.
Since Katie confirmed the news, her followers have heaped praise on her via social media.
“Whatever you think of Katie Price, it’s undeniable she’s been nothing but a devoted and wonderful mother to Harvey,” one person wrote.
“Every child deserves to be loved loudly and Katie Price has done that. She’s allowed us to see how funny and talented Harvey is,” penned another Twitter user.
