Katie Price’s son Harvey has been tested for COVID-19.
The 42-year-old shared with her followers on Instagram that her 18-year-old son was rushed to hospital with breathing problems after his temperature rose to forty-two degrees.
According to sources, it has been claimed that Harvey is fighting for his life in hospital after he “presented symptoms” of the virus.
“Harvey has been tested for the virus after he was having trouble breathing,” a source told The Sun Online.
“Katie’s seriously worried about him because his health complications would mean that catching coronavirus would be very serious.”
“Doctors are waiting for the results and should have them by Tuesday,” the source added.
It was also reported that the teen will be in hospital “for at least a week” as doctors monitor his condition.
“Harvey has been stabilised but he’s being monitored around the clock by doctors,” an insider told the publication.
“He’s still in intensive care and is expected to be there all day.”
“Katie’s trying to stay strong and is going back to the hospital this morning.”
The former model’s rep told The Sun Online that she is “holding up the best she can.”
“Katie is holding up the best she can in the current uncertain circumstances,” they stated.
“Katie’s focus is on being mum first and foremost. Harvey’s siblings are all deeply worried but cannot visit him in intensive care, as of yet.”
“The next couple of days are the key with doctors working around the clock to ensure Harvey remains stable and comfortable,” the rep added.
Taking to Twitter, Katie thanked her fans for their kind messages during this difficult time.
Thanks so much for all your messages of love and support for Harvey. It’s really keeping me going ????
