Katie Price Pleads for Weight Loss Help for Harvey

Katie Price fears her son Harvey will 'end up dying of a heart attack' if he doesn't lose weight soon.

The star's eldest son, 23, has Prader-Willi syndrome, which sparks a constant desire to eat food and a permanent feeling of hunger which leads to obesity.

He also battles a series of debilitating conditions including autism, septo-optic dysplasia,  and oppositional defiant disorder.

In April 2025, his weight had reached almost 30 stone before changes to his diet helped him lose 1.5 stone. 

Last year Katie said she had a plan with Harvey's medical team to put him on the weight loss jab Mounjaro, but in an update the mum voiced her frustrations that he still hasn't been prescribed it.

'I've been on the case to doctors about putting him on the Mounjaro,' she explained to her sister Sophie on the latest episode of their podcast The Katie Price Show. 

Katie said she was going to resort to asking any doctors among her Instagram followers for help.

'I'm actually going to put something up on Instagram to say, is there any private doctors out there? Because the NHS are so much... I'm not slagging the NHS off, but they know he's in the obese category.' 

'When he sleeps, I worry because he's snoring and wheezing. And then sometimes he holds his breath and I'm like he's massive. He's just getting bigger and he'll end up dying of a heart attack.' 

'They've already told me years ago that if he don't , he's prone to a heart attack.'

Katie added that she 'just feels so bad' and said she was determined to help but pointed out: 'I'm not I'm not going to inject him myself because that's not medically right to do for him, but something needs to be done. He's just huge.'

In November Katie said doctors were keen for Harvey to be put on a new weight loss drug 'in the new year' after it had completed clinical trials but added that 'if he goes on Mounjaro first and then goes onto this new one, it will work a lot quicker.' 

At the time she explained that 'the reason he hasn’t started Mounjaro yet is because they were trying to get him to lose weight through his diet, to try all avenues.'

Katie also gave fans an update on Harvey's living situation in the latest episode of her podcast. 

She has spent the past two weeks with Harvey at her UK home after jetting back from Dubai, where her new husband Lee Andrews remains. 

After graduating from a specialist college catered for his additional needs, the plan is for Harvey to move into his own home in an independent living facility close to Katie's house.

But Harvey is currently staying at temporary accommodation while they wait for the new housing to be ready with Katie explaining that the delays have caused frustration for both her and her son. 

'He just hates it where he is. The guy's on holiday. When he gets back, he's given me an update. I mean, he was supposed to be in it last July.'

'It's ridiculous. And Harvey's so frustrated. He just wants to be here. I just want to do it home from home.'
