Katie Price has warned she will be contacting the police after discovering a troll impersonating her son Harvey.
The former glamour model is fiercely protective of her eldest son, 21, who has various complex needs as well as autism, blindness and Prader-Willi syndrome, which can cause obesity.
Harvey, who is mixed race and also the son of former footballer Dwight Yorke, has been subjected to horrific racism and bullying over his disability.
Katie, 46, has now shared her disgust after coming across a TikTok user who impersonates Harvey, mocking him.
‘I think it’s the racial abuse he gets, they take the mick about his disability,’ she told Bake Off star Laura Adlington on her Go Love Yourself podcast.
She continued: ‘There’s someone at the moment on TikTok, I must admit this guy really does look like Harvey. I haven’t said his name yet because I’m going to go to the police about him and do it properly because it’s a thing.
‘He does an impression of Harvey really well but the thing is he’s a normal guy and he’s just getting followers for doing it.’
‘And it’s got to stop. It’s not funny. We can all take the p**s out of each other, we all have humour but you know when you’ve gone too far. [He’s] innocent,’ she added.
Katie then revealed that she showed Harvey a video of the troll impersonating him and he said: ‘It’s Harvey.’
She laughed: ‘Even Harvey thought it was him. I was like, “No Harv, that’s not you, it’s someone being horrible about you”. And he just went “what a d**k”.’
The former I’m A Celebrity star previously explained how Harvey wasn’t fully aware of the extent of trolling he receives on social media.
Speaking on Good Morning Britain in 2021, she said: ‘Luckily for Harvey, he doesn’t know. All I’d say is anyone out there who’s trolling and saw Harvey’s programme would feel absolute rubbish about themselves because it shows how vulnerable and innocent he is, and he couldn’t defend himself.’
In 2017, Katie launched a petition to pass Harvey’s Law which would crack down on social media bullying.
Earlier this year, Metropolitan Police officers were found guilty of gross misconduct after mocking Harvey in private Whatsapp group chats.
