Katie Price, 47, forced into ‘sad’ Harvey, 23, decision as she takes action after son smashes £3k TV at her home
Katie Price has revealed she sent her 23-year-old son Harvey back to college early after he smashed her £3,000 television at 6am on Sunday morning.
The former glamour model documented the incident on her Snapchat account, showing the aftermath of Harvey’s outburst.
Price, 47, was woken by the sound of her television being destroyed in the living room of her property.
She filmed her son Harvey afterwards, asking him, “What has mummy just heard?” to which he calmly replied: “Smashing the TV.”
The mother-of-five expressed shock at discovering the damage to her television and immediately decided to return Harvey to his college a day earlier than planned.
When questioned about why he damaged the television, Harvey told his mother it had angered him because it was early in the morning.
Price later revealed to her followers that Harvey claimed off-camera he “did not like what was on the screen”, though she disputed this, saying she was certain nothing was being shown.
“You was going to college tomorrow to get some new meds [medication], but now when are you going? You are going now,” Price told Harvey in the video.

Harvey responded with “Oh god!” before apologising and promising he “would not do it again”.
Price remained firm, telling him: “Well, you’ve got to go to college now and get some meds.”
Price claimed she had to spend the rest of the day getting a new TV, and as a result, she needed to send Harvey back to college.
In another post on the image-sharing site, Price branded the entire saga as “sad” after bidding her son farewell.
Harvey is blind, autistic, suffers from the learning disability septo-optic dysplasia, and is one of the 2,000 people in the UK with Prader-Willi syndrome, a genetic disorder.
Price has been open about her difficulties in getting Harvey a spot in college, particularly amid financial woes that have seen her declared bankrupt.
The incident isn’t the only one involving one of Price’s children in recent weeks to garner headlines.
Last month, her daughter Princess caused a stir when she flaunted her brand new Audi on social media after passing her driving test.
“I bought my first car,” the 17-year-old shared on Instagram alongside a series of images of herself posing next to the vehicle.
Before long, the comments section of the post was flooded with critics who accused Princess of flaunting her wealth in front of her fans, as well as using the money of her mother and father, Peter Andre, for the purchase.
The youngster quickly took to the comments to hit back at critics, writing: “These comments are so funny.
“To everyone out there, yes I work and yes I earn my own money which I’m super proud of and so thankful that I’m lucky enough to buy my own car xx.” (sic)
