Katie Price fears her 18-year-old son Harvey Price will die if he doesn’t start exercising.
Harvey now tips the scales at 29 stone due in part to his Prader-Willi syndrome giving him constant hunger.
While Katie, 42, has tried everything to keep his weight under control, she has now admitted she needs professional support and plans to move him into care.
Mum-of-five Katie said: “He will live there until he’s 25 and have his own space to study and keep fit.
“I need to get him the help he deserves because he will die if he doesn’t exercise.
“I need to get his weight down. We haven’t started training together yet as his breathing has got worse.

“It’s so bad. But at college he’ll be able to go swimming and work out with trained specialists.”
Katie added to The Sun: “I’m hoping he will make friends so he can socialise at the weekends, but if he has no plans then he can come home whenever he wants.
“He’s meant to start this September but with lockdown I don’t know if he will.”
Daily Star previously revealed how Katie has splashed out on new home equipment to try and encourage Harvey to train with herself and boyfriend Carl Woods.
Katie said: “We have now got a gym as I had to get one for Harvey.
“So, fitness for us is the way forward… unless Carl gets me pregnant.”
Katie had initially tried to get an old treadmill back from her ex Kris Boyson, saying she needed it, but Kris argued she had given it to him as it was broken and he had spent money fixing it up.

Hitting back at Katie’s claims, Kris told Daily Star: “Kate was throwing a treadmill away as it was broken, she gifted it to me and I spent money rewiring it and fixing it.
“Now it’s fixed she wants it back? I don’t believe she wants it back, I just think she’s using me for another story.
“First it was her mum that wanted it, now it’s Harvey, make your mind up.”
