Katie Price has opened up about her son Harvey’s struggle to manage his weight, revealing that she has spoken to doctors about prescribing Mounjaro for him.
In a Snapchat video posted in late April, the TV personality, 46, opened up on how “heartbroken and gutted” she felt at hearing that Harvey’s weight had increased to almost 30 stone, a “life-threatening” figure for him.
Mounjaro, the brand name for tirzepatide, is a drug approved for treating obesity on the NHS.
“It’s so sad, his quality of life at the moment… he’s at high risk of having a heart attack.”
Harvey, 22, has Prader-Willi syndrome, which has symptoms including an excessive appetite and overeating.
Katie has frequently spoken of her family’s challenges managing his weight.
