Katie Price says she’s worried that son Harvey will ‘eat himself to death’ after the teen’s weight ballooned to 29 stone.
Mum-of-five Katie, 43, opened up about the 18-year-old’s weight gain, which has seen him add” two stone within two months”.
What did Katie Price say about Harvey?
In an interview with The Sun, proud mum Katie revealed her worry about her son.
Harvey suffers from a range of conditions, but one of them – Prader–Willi syndrome – causes sufferers to feel hungry all the time and overeat.
And it’s this condition that has caused Harvey to put on weight.

She said: “It’s a cruel illness. He feels hungry all the time. Every time I feed him, it’s killing him.
“Even though it makes him happy, it’s cruel of me to do it. He needs to lose weight or he’ll end up dead. He doesn’t deserve that. I don’t want to lose him.
“He’s only 18, he’s got his whole life ahead of him. I will do anything to help.”
