Katie Price has revealed her concern for son Harvey as he has been calling her “crying all the time”.
The reality TV star’s son, 21, whose dad is ex-footballer Dwight Yorke, is partially blind with a learning disability. He also has autism, Prader-Willi syndrome and septo-optic dysplasia.
Harvey has been living at the National Star College in Cheltenham. The school is an independent specialist further education college for people with complex needs.

However, although Harvey is getting the care and support he needs, Katie can’t help but “miss him so much.” During an episode on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, Katie shared her concerns and worries.

She said: ‘I’m a bit concerned for him at the minute. He phones me crying all the time. ‘I love you, I miss you, I need your cuddles.’ For a 21-year-old, he’s always going to be my baby. He does come home; I do see him.”
The mum-of-five continued: “I’ve just had a challenging year, you know as well as what is going on with the other kids. But the kids are my life, my priority, they are my number one. I don’t love them all any different, they just have different needs they need from me.”

It comes weeks after Harvey was rushed to hospital following his ongoing issue with his ears. Speaking on her podcast, The Katie Price Show, the doting mum told listeners that he was being treated in hospital after his problem got worse.
She explained: “I’m going to see Harvey on Wednesday. He’s having real problems with his ear. He kept phoning me yesterday. They syringed all his ear out at the hospital again yesterday, so he’s calling me and going [crying], ‘Mum!’ and all that.
“Then last night when he went to bed, they’ve put a bandage around his head to stop him doing that [touching his ears]. So he’s phoning me feeling very sorry for himself, so I’m going to go and see him on Wednesday.”

The mum-of-five went on to reveal Harvey’s love of hotels which he wants to visit as a treat for when he leaves the hospital. Katie went on: “All he wants to do is go and stay in a hotel – and I know why, because he wants all the room service. And the cuddles. So I’m looking forward to that because I miss him.”
Harvey has been at the five-star school since he was 19 after his behaviour at home had become too much for his family to handle. He is prone to violent outbursts and mum Katie said: “His behaviour is so bad at the minute. His ear doesn’t help. I can bring him home but he will smash everything.
“I said to the guys that look after him, ‘Thank you so much’ because I know he’s being really difficult at the minute. Yet if I ring him, he’s like, ‘I’m busy mum, I’m busy!’ and I’m like, ‘No, Harv, you’re not busy. I want to talk to you, listen to mummy’. And he goes, ‘Ok what? Be quick mummy’. I’m like, ‘Where’s this all coming from?”
