Katie Price's son Harvey smashed head through car window in holiday 'nightmare'
Katie Price revealed son Harvey smashed his head through her car window after their holiday to Devon turned into a 'nightmare'.
The mum-of-five took the kids and her dog on a trip to the south west and ran into trouble on the six-hour journey home. She spoke about the scary motorway moment on her Katie Price Show podcast after he lost control in the car after his ears popped while they were on the road.
Poor Harvey then headbutt the window as glass shattered everywhere as she accepts she may need more help with her son. The 20-year-old was diagnosed with septo-optic dysplasia as a baby, and he is also autistic and lives with Prader-Willi syndrome.
Katie said: "On the way back, Harvey decides his ear keeps popping and then what happens? The kids are all in the back and he decides to headbutt the window of the car, popped out the window - we’re on the motorway - glass shattered everywhere, the kids' faces looked like a murder scene.

And I’m going to Carl, ‘We need to pull over, we need to pull over.’ Nightmare. So we had to do the six hour journey home with a popped out window in the rain and the wind.

"Harvey was a nightmare! We’ll have to take him back (to his care centre) to because they need to adjust and have a look at his behaviour because he’s been like it as college as well a lot. So it was not the best 10 days."
It is not the first time Katie has struggle with the 20-year-old. Last year, Katie Price: What Harvey Did Next followed the former glamour model, 44, and her son as he experiences the highs and lows of his first weeks away from home. The raw documentary sees Harvey struggle when he first enters his new college digs, but one scene in particular struck viewers as it showed the teen become frustrated during his first couple of days and smash up the college shop.
Riddled with anxiety, Harvey bashes his head against the wall and cries before falling to the floor in the hard-to-watch scene. Harvey's carers soon manage to calm him down and bring him back into the moment by helping him take deep breaths and to 'use his words' as they remind him that leaving his dorm room is important.
But as he gets stuck into his work experience in the college shop, Harvey's anxiety reaches new heights as he begins to smash up a bathroom door. After he calms down a little, Harvey gets back to work at decorating the shop wall with an array of stars before the staff congratulate him on his hard work.
“Sometimes, Harvey does need to break something,” his carer tells the cameras. “In that case, we can only keep Harvey as safe as possible. We let him break that item and then we remove it because for Harvey, that's when it's over. That's when it's finished.”
