Katie Price has paid eldest son Harvey a visit with his college life up in the air. The former glamour model made the trip to see the 23-year-old at his accommodation after it was claimed the local authority had cut his funding.

Harvey has ADHD, autism, genetic condition Prader-Willi Syndrome, and septo-optic dysplasia, which causes blindness. And Katie recently revealed her son would be going from college into “independent living”.

She recently told how Harvey is going “into the real world “. Speaking on the Katie Price Show podcast, the mum-of-five said: “Harvey is doing the countdown for his new place. He’s got his leavers ceremony where they give out certificates and then it’s the ‘real world’ Mr Harvey Price.”

But it appears as though before he does, she paid her son a visit once more to his frog-themed room. Posting on Instagram, Katie wrote: “Visiting my Harvey at college.” She followed it up with three green love heart emojis.

The snap showed the mum-and-son pair sharing a peck as they lay on a bed. The green walls had a cartoon frog painted on, showing off Harvey’s love for the animal. There was also a pillow with his smiling face on.

Katie’s followers loved the update and gushed in the comments section. One user wrote: “Beautiful Harvey watched him grow from his first photo shoot with ok.” Another added: “A bond no one will ever break,” alongside a love heart and frog emoji.

In May, Harvey celebrated turning 23 with a frog-themed party. Katie shared the occasion on her Instagram, with photo upload of her son wearing a frog head band. She said he was “so happy” to celebrate the milestone.

Previously, Katie – who shares Harvey with former Manchester United footballer Dwight Yorke- had explained that her son “got bored” at the residential college and often wanted to come home.

But he is now set for a change of scenery as his temporary accommodation in Southampton is ready for September before something nearer to his mum is sorted from October.

“I’ve found him a place in Southampton which is temporary,” Katie said. “It’s got five other adults in it. Then he moves to his place in October, which is Littlehampton, which will be nearer to be. He’s going from college to independent living.”

Katie, who lives in Horsham, West Sussex, had previously said: “Harvey is supposed to be moving in four-and-a-half weeks, they’ve (the college) changed management and said they won’t be able to cater for Harv, because he’s too difficult. So now I’ve got to find another placement for him… so yeah, more drama to deal with.”

Later in the show, she added: “We worked months and months for that and he was told four-and-a-half weeks before that he couldn’t go there, and Harvey has been doing the countdown.

“Well it’s stressful because you want the right thing for your child and it is a lot of time and effort to go back and do more meetings, more forms, it is very time-consuming because you want the best for your child.”
