Katie Price reveals she’ll be spending Christmas with Harvey at Mucky Mansion and other kids ‘will be with their dads’
KATIE Price has revealed that it will be just her and Harvey for Christmas dinner this year.
The 43-year-old has said the pair of them, along with her fiancé Carl Woods will spend the festive period at her mucky mansion, while her other four kids “will be there with their dads”.
Harvey, 19, is Katie’s eldest, but she shares Princess, 14, and Junior, 16, with her first husband Peter Andre.
She also has two children – Jett, 8, and Bunny, 7 – with her third husband Kieran Hayler.
Speaking to OK! she said: “The plan is that Harvey will be home for Christmas and New Year. It will be me, Harvey and Carl [Woods, her fiancé].
“I don’t have the other kids this year as it’s their dads’ turns because I had them last year.
“And then obviously I’ll see my mum and my family. We’ll be at my house in Horsham – I’m back here for good and I’m loving it.”
Katie also revealed her and Harvey had been out shopping for trees together, she said: “The other weekend, I took him to buy a Christmas tree and then we went to a garden centre and got him lots of baubles and decorations.

“We took it all back to his little flat in the college and put everything up for him. He loves looking at all the Christmas lights, which is really common for people with autism.”
In the same interview, Katie also revealed that son Harvey has put on the weight he lost earlier this year after moving to his residential college three months ago.
She spoke earlier this year about how the 19-year-old, who weighs 26 stone, had started on a new diet after fears he’d “die” if he didn’t lose weight.
Harvey has a number of complex conditions, including septo-optic dysplasia, autism and Prader-Willi syndrome.
And now Katie said she couldn’t be prouder of the teen and how he has settled into his new school, National Star in Cheltenham – despite the fact he’s “smashed up” his TV, computer and lights in his room.
Speaking again to OK! the former glamour model said: “He did lose a bit of weight in the beginning when he first started, but now that he’s settled he’s putting it back on.
“Like I said about him smashing up his room, I think he feels very comfortable there now.
“He’s very clever and he knows what he does and doesn’t want – especially when it comes to food.”
Losing weight
In February, Katie revealed that Harvey had lost weight after moving into his own house as she “keeps the kitchen cupboards empty”.
At the time, the mother-of-five explained how Harvey had moved into his own house opposite from the family pad so that he can experience independence before making the move to a residential college in September.
And the decision has made a world of difference to Harvey, who is much “calmer” without the noise of his siblings, and has even shed some pounds.
