Katie Price has launched a fresh attack on her ex Dwight Yorke as she got their son Harvey to chant his name in a new video.
The former glamour model, 47, welcomed Harvey, 23, on May 27, 2002. He is blind, autistic, has septo-optic dysplasia, a learning disability and is one of the 2,000 people in the UK with Prader-Willi syndrome, a genetic disorder.
It is believed Dwight, 53, has no contact with his son and Katie previously claimed the last time he saw Harvey was in 2012.
In a new video shared on Instagram, Katie filmed Harvey dressed in a Manchester United shirt, Dwight’s old team.
In the clip, she tells Harvey ‘go’ and then he chants, ‘Oi, oi, Yorkey.’
Katie tagged both Dwight and Manchester United in the video.

Katie is also mother to Junior, 20, and Princess, 18, with her ex-husband Peter Andre and Jett, 12, and Bunny, 11, with her other ex-husband Kieran Hayler.
Daily Mail has contacted a representative of Dwight Yorke for comment.
When Katie first fell pregnant with Harvey, Dwight denied he was the father, until a DNA test proved his paternity.
Speaking previously on her podcast about Harvey’s birth, Katie said: ‘Dwight turned up at the last minute but he didn’t want to come in the room or cut the cord so dad did it, he cut the cord.’
Katie continued: ‘And anyway I remember Dwight saying “oh there’s a bruise” and I thought ‘don’t insult me.’
‘That was the last time I sort of saw Dwight, I didn’t see him many times after that.
‘I found it [the mark] and it’s called a Mongolian blue spot, it fades eventually.’
Katie’s mother Amy previously revealed ‘womaniser’ Dwight is her favourite of her daughter’s former partners.

She made the surprising admission in her upcoming autobiography, The Last Word, while recounting Katie’s ill-fated relationship with the footballer.
Yet Amy revealed that despite this, he still holds a special place in her heart.
An extract from her book, published in The Sun, read: ‘When Kate told me she was dating Manchester United footballer Dwight Yorke, my heart sank. He had a reputation as a womaniser.
‘But of all the men Kate has dated in her life, Dwight will – perhaps surprisingly – always be my favourite because he gifted us this incredible child.’
Amy recounted how Dwight failed to show up at any scans or baby classes with her and ‘told her his mates thought she was keeping the baby just to get his money.’
While the athlete showed up for the birth, Amy revealed that his agent told him not to register the birth with Katie before getting a DNA test, noting: ‘what should have been a lovely memory was spoiled by this cynicism.’
In Katie’s 2021 memoir, Katie Price: Harvey and Me, the model detailed how Dwight apparently refused to see Harvey after the child had asked to see his father over a meal in Cheshire village Alderley Edge.
Katie penned: ‘I walked over to him and he didn’t really say much – it was so awkward. He hadn’t even bought me a drink! But that was typical Dwight.’
She claimed that it was after she arrived that he said he didn’t want to see the pair of them anymore.
The book read: ‘Even after he said that, I was still trying to be persistent. I wanted Harvey to have his dad in his life, but he just wasn’t interested in any of it. “This isn’t about me. This is your son and your flesh and blood,”
‘But he just didn’t give a s**t. There’s only so much you can try before you realise you’re flogging a dead horse. I got up and left and that’s the last time I saw him. I haven’t heard from him since.’
Dwight previously slammed Katie in his own book Born To Score in 2009 after he claimed that she did not let him see Harvey.
He wrote: ‘From the moment I set eyes on the little fella, I have loved my son like I could never ever have imagined possible. I am not going to hear any more that I did not care for Harvey, or have any understanding of his needs or that I was not interested in his welfare.’
