Katie Price’s daughter Bunny says she ‘runs away’ when Harvey ‘loses temper’

Katie Price’s daughter Bunny has spoken out about what happens when her brother Harvey loses his temper in the house.

The six-year-old said that she “runs away” when Harvey, 18, gets upset and starts smashing up the house.

The candid moment was filmed as part of the BBC documentary, Katie Price : Harvey and Me, in which the former glamour model shares an insight into the life of her son, who is partially blind, had autism and genetic condition ­Prader-Willi Syndrome.

Bunny spoke of the moments when Harvey would “kick off” and pointed to holes in the wall that had been put there during his temper tantrums.

After being asked what it is like living with Harvey, Bunny said: “He’s nice. Sometimes he does kick off.

“He smashes stuff in the wall, like that crack over there.”

The producer then asks Bunny what she does when Harvey reacts like this and she said: “Run away and go upstairs.”

Harvey was not happy when Katie shared with viewers: “You’re still trying to smash mummy’s house up.”

The teenager struggles with an excessive appetite due to his condition, which impacts on his muscle tone and how his nervous system functions.

It also causes a constant desire to eat and Katie said that the problems occur when he is denied the opportunity to have more food.

She revealed that they have to lock the kitchen cupboards and have had to padlock the fridge in a bid to curb Harvey’s midnight feasts as his weight hit 29st.

She said that the problem with this is that Harvey loses his temper and this is when he will leave holes in the wall as he tries to smash up the house.

The condition can impact muscle tone and functions of the nervous system and sparks the constant desire to eat.

Speaking previously about the situation, Katie said: “It’s a cruel and horrible illness where he feels hungry all the time – and if he doesn’t get food he gets angry. It’s hard work.

“He’ll smash things up if you say no. I’ve had to re-plaster my walls because he’ll bash holes in them with his head.

“He knows what nice things taste of. I’ll give him sweet potato chips instead of real fries but he knows the difference.”

Katie continued to say that it is what she doesn’t see which is the major issue.

She added: “It’s not what he eats in the day, it’s what he eats when I don’t see him. I’ve tried hiding food but he’ll find it.

“You can’t leave food or leftovers on the side or he’ll eat it, and he’s really quick too.

“He even eats in his sleep. He’ll walk downstairs and eat whatever he can find. We’ve even found him rummaging through friends’ bags for food.”
