Katie Price was praised by the stars of Loose Women on Tuesday, as they recalled an incident in which her son Harvey grew upset behind-the-scenes.
On Tuesday’s show, the Loose Women panellists discussed the BBC documentary Katie Price: Harvey and Me, exploring the reality star’s journey to find a college for her son following his 18th birthday.
Praising Katie’s parenting skills, Birds of a Feather star Linda Robson reflected on an incident that had occurred in the studio several years ago.
Harvey knocked a table over before the panellists, only for Katie to comfort her son and quietly calm him down.
Linda recalled: “We saw first-hand Katie with Harvey.

“We were doing a campaign and a photoshoot and Katie brought Harvey down and he was fine until he wanted a cake.
“They didn’t have the cake that he wanted and then he just kicked the table in the air.
“She was amazing – she went just look at me, calm down now, that’s not acceptable, don’t do that. She’s got five kids now, it’s really hard.”
Linda’s co-star, Ruth Langsford, also heaped praise on the documentary, which highlighted the plight faced by carers across the country.

She said: “What a very difficult decision she’s got facing her of where he goes.”
Katie’s eldest son Harvey, who suffers from Prader-Willi syndrome, is also partially blind and has been diagnosed with autism.
The BBC documentary received an overwhelmingly positive response, with critics praising the insight it gave into the long-term care required for many in society.
After the feature aired, Katie took to social media to thank the public for their reaction to the one-off special.

She said: “I wanted to say thank you so much to @bbcone, @Minnow_Films and the general public for all your support in the lead up to #HarveyandMe and the incredible feedback tonight.
“This really has been such an amazing journey for Harvey and myself, and I want to continue the conversation surrounding the difficulties that parents of children with complex needs face, and help parents going through a similar situation. Thank you all so much x.”
Loose Women airs on weekdays at 12.30pm on ITV.
