'who will look after him?'

Katie Price predicted ‘dramatic’ event could tear her from Harvey before drink-drive smash

KATIE Price feared something “dramatic” would happen in her life that would tear her apart from her son Harvey.

The 43-year-old - who was recently involved in a drink-drive smash - admitted she was relieved she had found a residential home for the disabled 19-year-old, describing it as a “security blanket”.

, Katie wrote:  "Harvey will be living at National Star for 52 weeks of the year, which means he can stay there as long as he likes – even throughout all of the holidays, including Christmas. Obviously he’s going to come home, but it’s a relief to know that he can always be there.

"If something dramatic happened in my life, and let’s be honest, that’s a common occurrence, I don’t have to be thinking, ‘What’s going to happen to Harvey? Who’s going to look after him?'

"It’s a massive weight off my shoulders to know that if he absolutely has to, he can stay there. I feel like now, for the first time, I can breathe. And even though I do, I shouldn’t feel guilty for that."

Katie spent six months visiting colleges for teens with autism and learning difficulties to ensure that she does the right thing for her son, before picking one in Cheltenham.
