Katie Price has shared a heartbreaking update on her son Harvey’s health.

Katie Price fears Harvey, 23, will “end up dying of a heart attack”. The former glamour model revealed that during the night, Harvey is left wheezing. Katie acknowledges that she’s been “on the case” with her doctors to have Harvey prescribed Mounjaro to help with weight loss. However, she is yet to find a solution and informed her sister Sophie that she would be turning to Instagram to ask her followers for assistance in finding a private doctor. I’m not slagging the NHS off, but they know he’s in the obese category,” she said, adding, “When he sleeps, I worry because he’s snoring and wheezing, and then sometimes he holds his breath. He’s massive, Soph, he’s just getting bigger. He’ll end up dying of a heart attack.”

Speaking on The Katie Price Show podcast, the former model went on: “They’ve already told me years ago that if he doesn’t lose weight, he’s prone to a heart attack. I just feel so bad, I’m going to have to do something. I’m not going to inject him myself, that’s not medically right to do for him,” reports the Mirror.

“But something needs to be done; he’s just huge, so that’s that,” Katie stated. After spending time with Harvey at her residence, she was relieved that he had returned to his own specially adapted flat.

Over the summer, Katie disclosed that Harvey weighed 30 stone. Her eldest son lives with Prader-Willi syndrome, which triggers a compulsion to eat alongside a constant sensation of hunger, resulting in obesity.

Katie previously revealed that she was enrolling Harvey at a gym and introducing him to boxing to help him keep active. As well as Prader-Willi syndrome, Harvey lives with septo-optic dysplasia, ADHD, autism and oppositional defiant disorder.

She said last year: “I’m so heartbroken and gutted that his weight is just going up. I just googled it in stones, 188kg is just a few kg of being 30 stone.”

Katie went on to clarify that Harvey’s condition was now “life-threatening.”

Katie added: “It’s so sad his quality of life at the moment where he’s so big, he just can’t really do much. It’s just another thing I have to deal with because he’s at high risk of having a heart attack, he struggles to put on his trainers or struggles to walk anywhere, but I love him, and I’m going to help him through this.

“So sad, obesity and his condition is sad, it’s sad to see someone go through it and he doesn’t understand.” Katie had previously discussed with doctors about placing Harvey on medication to assist his weight loss in order to provide him with an improved quality of life.
