Katie Price hits out at Dwight Yorke as she posts video of their son Harvey saying ‘I love you daddy’
KATIE Price has hit out at Dwight Yorke as she posted a video of their son Harvey saying: “I love you, daddy”.
Former footballer Dwight has had nothing to do with his 17-year-old son, but his ex-flame has now urged the sportsman to call her.
In a video that was posted to Katie’s Instagram page earlier this evening, the former glamour model asks Harvey: “Who do you want to write a message to on Instagram?”
Harvey replies: “Daddy Dwight.”
His mum asks: “What do you want to say?” to which the teen shares: “I love you Daddy Dwight, you look beautiful.”
Katie tagged Dwight’s official Instagram account in the caption, writing: “Anyone who knows @officialdwightyorke19 please get him to contact his son.
“Harvey doesn’t deserve this, he see’s his other son Tiger so I don’t understand!
“He does charity work for different kids charities yet doesn’t see or support his own son. I don’t get it!”
The mother-of-five posted the same video to her Instagram Story, tagging Dwight once again as she added: “Please see your son, get in contact – have a heart as Harvey doesn’t deserve the fact you see your other son and not him!
“You’re always welcome and it’s never too late. Why can’t Harvey meet his brother?”
Earlier this year, Katie revealed her plan to re-introduce her son to his father by “driving up to his house and banging on his door”.
The pair dated in 2001 but split shortly before Harvey was born.
Since then, Katie has claimed that Dwight has only seen his son a handful of times – despite her desperate plea for him to be in Harvey’s life.
In October, the star opened up about her son’s absent father on her YouTube channel, telling the camera: “What I would like to do is turn up to his dad’s place – Dwight Yorke’s – ring on the doorbell and be there with Harvey, for him to see Harvey.
“That’s what I would like to do and I will do that. I think Dwight should start entering Harvey’s life, it’s been years.”
Turning to her school friend Mel, Katie asked: “How long as it been? Harvey was four when he last saw him.
“I would love Dwight to come into contact with Harvey. How can you not want to know Harv?”
Their complicated relationship goes back over 17 years when glamour model Katie fell pregnant after a whirlwind romance with the Manchester United star.
She took a DNA test to confirm her ex Dwight was Harvey’s dad – but she says he has never wanted to be part of their son’s life.
Harvey is diagnosed with blindness, Prader-Willi syndrome and he is also on the autistic spectrum.
In an extract from Katie’s autobiography Reborn, the mum-of-five said: “The last time Harvey’s biological father Dwight Yorke saw him, which was around eight years ago, the first thing he asked was why Harvey was so big. Why was I overfeeding him?
“I’d explained Harvey’s condition to Dwight many times, but he refused to understand it and kept going on about him being fat.

“It’s sad that he is unable to accept Harvey for who he is and seems unable or unwilling to work within his limitations.
“On that occasion, I think Dwight wanted to blame someone for the fact that his son is disabled.
“I have always said that if Dwight could see what a courageous and talented boy Harvey is then he would enjoy being with him so much.”
In November 2018, The Sun Online revealed Katie was demanding £500,000 from Dwight to make up him missing years of child support payments for son Harvey, and she has repeatedly slammed her ex for not wanting to see their disabled son.
