Katie Price’s son Harvey shows off his dance moves as he joins his mum onstage for the final curtain call at her Cinderella pantomime in Cheshire

Must read

Harvey Price stole the show from his mother Katie, as he took to the stage beside her following her performance in a Cinderella pantomime in Cheshire.

The former glamour model, 46, is starring as one of the wicked step-sisters in the production at Northwich Memorial Court, alongside best pal Kerry Katona.

And as the cast took to the stage during the final curtain call, Katie was quick to bring out her eldest son Harvey, 22, to share in the applause.

Still clad in their extravagant costumes, the cast led the audience in singing Wizzard’s festive classic, I Wish It Could Be Christmas Everyday.

Harvey looked on cloud nine, as he danced and clapped alongside his mum, before she grabbed his hand and pulled him to join everyone for the final note of the song.

Katie later shared the video, filmed by a fan in the crowd, and shared it to her Instagram Stories with the heartfelt caption: ‘I just love my @officialharveyprice’.

Harvey’s turn at treading the boards comes after he proudly shared off his letter to Santa earlier this month, which revealed his college triumphs.

He is blind, autistic, has septo-optic dysplasia, a learning disability, and is one of the 2,000 people in the UK with Prader-Willi syndrome, a genetic disorder.

His sweet letter read: ‘Dear Santa, my name is Harvey Price. I am 22 years old, my birthday is 27th May. I have been doing really good work in National Star College. 

‘This week I swam 10 laps in my swim session. I have been really trying to use my words, Santa. I hope this makes you so proud. 

‘As I have been so good this year at National Star College can Harvey Price please have extra presents. Love you Santa. From Harvey Price.’

Katie was Harvey’s primary caregiver until he turned 19, but since 2021, he’s been living independently at the specialist further education institute National Star College.

However, Katie revealed in March that she was being forced to pull him out because ‘West Sussex Council wouldn’t fund him’ at a college too far from where she lives. 

She has spoken publicly about trying to secure Harvey funding for the college as she battles with hundreds of thousands of pounds in outstanding tax bills.

And in June, she revealed she fears that her son – whose father is former footballer Dwight York – will be moved into social care. 

For Harvey to attend the residential college, it relies on much administration and the local authority agreeing to finance it.

The college puts in a funding application to Katie’s local authority which details everything they are going to provide for Harvey. For all-year round residential care, this can be up to £300,000 to £350,000 a year.

The decision is made by the local authority who decide whether to fund it or pick somewhere more local. 

Katie has to ensure his Education Health and Care Plan (ECHP) – a legally binding document detailing his required support – is up to date.

The mother-of-five and Harvey recently spent Christmas with Kerry, 44, and her family, with the Atomic Kitten singer sharing a photo of them all in matching pyjamas.

Captioning the snap, Kerry wrote: ‘Merry Xmas from the Katona and price household wishing for all your dreams to come too.’

While starring together in the pantomime, Kerry is also being supported by BFF Katie following her split from fiancé Ryan Mahoney last month.

The former Atomic Kitten parted ways with her partner, 36, last month after six years together and the star has been left devastated.

Kerry admitted in her New! Magazine column that while Christmas is usually a happy time for her, she was dreading this year as she celebrates the festivities as a single mother again.

And the pair’s close bond is set to be taken to a whole new level as Kerry revealed her eldest daughter Molly would be giving the duo matching tattoos over the holiday period.

While Katie has seemingly bagged a huge paycheck for her return to pantomime, with her reportedly being paid a whopping £50,000 for the run.

The TV personality – who has been declared bankrupt twice – will be hoping the gig is a step in the direction of turning round her financial woes. 

A source told The Sun: ‘Katie knows her worth and she won’t take a penny less. Despite everything she’s a shrewd negotiator and her name still has some pull when it comes to booking gigs.

‘The panto organisers are thrilled with the response to Katie and Kerry being in the show so far and in their eyes it’s money well spent.’

Speaking about landing the panto gig with Kerry back in May, Katie said: ‘I’ve signed up to another Panto! Cinderella!

‘I’ve signed up for Cinderella and I’m one of the ugly sisters – and guess who is the ugly sister I’m doing it with – it’s Kerry Katona!

‘So Kerry got me the gig because she has been working with them for six years. And she was like “why don’t you come and do this panto”, and she said it was for the ugly sisters and I said “oh are we ugly then?” and she said we can still be really pretty.

‘And we can sing and I said “well I can sing better than you Kerry”. Because we have known each other 22 years even before she was in Atomic Kitten and the Jungle.

‘So we know each other well and we can have innuendos and stuff on stage and little digs so it will be good to do that this year with her.’
