Katie Price is reportedly desperate to give her terminally-ill mum Amy another grandchild.
The mum-of-five recently revealed plans to adopt a child from Nigeria, and it’s believed her beloved mum is the reason behind her decision.
Amy was diagnosed with idopathic pulmonary fibrosis in 2017 and was told her condition is terminal, so Katie apparently wants to give her another grandchild before it’s too late.

A source has told Closer magazine: “Katie is heartbroken about Amy’s diagnosis and is secretly desperate to give her another grandchild as they don’t know how much time she has left.
“She says it would make Amy happy seeing her welcome another baby into the world and seeing her settled with Kris [Boyson].
“She thinks becoming a mum again would really show her family she’s beaten her demons and is focusing on a new chapter.”
Ent Daily has contacted reps for Katie for comment.
Katie is already a mum to son Harvey, 16, from her relationship with Dwight Yorke, son Junior, 13, and daughter Princess, 11, with ex Peter Andre and son Jett, five, and daughter Bunny, four, with her ex-husband Kieran Hayler.
Earlier this year, Katie revealed plans to adopt a baby from Nigeria.
During an appearance on This Morning in January, Katie revealed she had started the process of adopting a child from the West African country after meeting a woman, who works at an orphanage.
She said: “Well basically, I’ve always said I’ve always wanted to adopt a child. I don’t care if they’ve got disabilities – just because I feel I can offer a place.
“Funny enough, I was getting my nails done and there was a lady sitting next to me and I don’t know why, I’m a bit weird like this, but I said to her, ‘Sorry, but are you a nurse?'”
She continued: “Cut a long story short, she wasn’t a nurse but she was telling me how she looks after this orphanage in Nigeria and we got talking and stuff.

“I said to her I’ve always wanted to adopt but the thing is, it’s easy to adopt abroad but it’s not easy to bring them back to this country. So she knows all these people.”
Meanwhile, during an appearance on Loose Women earlier this year, Katie revealed that her mum’s health was “deteriorating” due to the terminal lung condition.
She said at the time: “[Mum] has deteriorated, you would notice it. I look at it now and her little shaking – her little chest, I don’t know, you just notice it, don’t you?
“But I say to her ‘The more you still moan at me mum, the more I know you’re alright!”
