Katie Price reveals son Harvey Price weighs 30st as she issues hopeful health update

Katie Price revealed her son Harvey Price has now reached 30stone in weight as she offered an update on her eldest child's health. The mum-of-five, 47, has confirmed he is now taking weight loss jabs in a bid to bring down his weight.

She had been growing increasingly concerned about his weight issues. Harvey, 22, has Prader-Willi syndrome. This can give him a constant desire to eat food and a leaves him permanently feeling hungry.

Now, she has admitted they have gone to special methods in a bid to combat his urges - and Katie says she can't wait to see the outcome. Speaking on her latest edition of The Katie Price Show podcast, she explained to her sister Sophie that Harvey is starting on the weight loss jab, Mounjaro, once he gets to his new college.

She told listeners: "So they (the college) want him to settle there for two weeks at least, so they get to know him. Because they said once they sort of get to know him, you know, when he kicks off all of that.

"So they could keep an eye that when he starts the Mounjaro, they would notice if there's a difference in behaviour, this/that, but because he's near me, I'll be more involved this time, because it's so far here, I'll be seeing him all the time.

She added: "I'm having visions (about Harvey) that when he starts it, because I'm joining him at the gym, I'm going to get him a boxing trainer, not to be a boxer, but it's good exercise, and I think he’ll love it. I'm just so fascinated to know what he's gonna look like."

Sister Sophie then asked: "So technically, we're talking what, three weeks until he starts his journey?"

However, in response, Katie said: "Well, we've got eight (weeks), and then he can start, but I'm trying to make it quicker, because I want him to start it, and I read all these stories on people. I just can't imagine what he's gonna look like, because I think in his eyes and that he looks like Junior now, like even the clothes I buy him are different.

"I can then go on High Street and dress him more trendy, and he'll have more energy. I can't wait to see what he's gonna look like, because we're just used to Big Bear Harvey."

Earlier this month, Katie expressed how his new accommodation areused to residents being on the medication. Speaking to her sister at the time, she said: "They've had a few people there, within months, just losing weight because they know how to deal with it.

"You know, in a couple of years, Harvey's gonna look different with that place... the Mounjaro, like? And then he gets the proper little life back, because at the moment, where he's so big, he's just out of breath. So, a lot's gonna change for Harv when he moves."

Mounjaro is the brand name for tirzepatide. It is an antidiabetic medication that was approved by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) in 2024 for the treatment of obesity on the NHS.
