Your support makes all the difference.Katie Price's son Harvey has been praised after he responded to his bullies on Loose Women.
The 14-year-old, who is blind, autistic and suffers from Prader-Willi syndrome, swore when he was asked by his mother what he wanted to say to the bullies who had attacked him online.
Ms Price asked him: If someone says something horrible to Harvey, what does Harvey say?"
He responded: "Hello, you c**t."
The programme's producers were unable to censor the swear word before it was broadcast live.
Ms Price brought Harvey on to the programme as part of a discussion about internet trolls.
She has previously called for online trolls to appear on Loose Women and defend themselves.
She also named and shamed internet commentators who created cruel memes and left vile messages about her son.
Viewers praised how Harvey deals with internet trolls:
Ms Price hinted she had been doing "lots of stuff behind the scenes" and warned trolls who had targeted Harvey they should expect "a surprise coming up".
She added: "I know Harvey looks big and he could look intimidating, he's just got such a heart of gold. He wouldn't know how to hurt someone. He's all about love."
