KATIE Price made a ‘cruel’ jibe about son Harvey Price not being able to fit on an escalator in her latest YouTube video.
The tell star revealed her son, who is partially blind and has Prader Willis Syndrome, would struggle to get around shopping centres.
Cameras followed Katie around a department story in Horsham, Essex, and as she mounted a single use escalator she told viewers: “I’m not joking and I know this is really cruel saying this but I don’t think Harvey would fit up this lift. They should do it wider.”
As her pal off camera said: “Really?” Katie remarked: “He wouldn’t!”
Harvey has gained weight in his teenage years and the 6ft teenager has become a handful for Katie.
Harvey also suffers from septo-optic dysplasia, which affects his growth.
The mum-of-five revealed Harvey has “smashed windows, eight iPads and TVs” whilst living under her roof.
It promoted her to get help and the teenager now lives part time in residential care.
Speaking on Victoria Derbyshire’s show, Katie turned to Harvey and asked him: “What do you do at home Harv, to mummy’s house? What have you been doing that mummy doesn’t like?”
The teenager replied: “Smash things.”
Katie continued to quiz Harvey and said: “Yes, and how many TVs do you smash?
Harvey answered: “Lots” as Katie added: “And how many iPads?” with her son responding: “Eight”.
Katie turned back to Victoria and continued: “He doesn’t realise the expense. He is a danger to himself, for the first time ever now I’m thinking he might have to go residential (care) Monday to Friday.

“He knows, if he kicks off in the morning, the driver won’t take him to school. He has sussed that.
“And he is missing out on his education because he just wants to be with me. But it is so hard. I haven’t got respite. I do it all myself.”
“I’m really having to think about it but I hate it because he’s my life. The kids can be scared as he’s big so I have to think of him. I’m literally on my own as I don’t talk to anyone about it, I’m lonely.”
