Katie Price has shared some incredible news about her son Harvey – revealing he is now a Guinness World Record holder.
The telly legend is no stranger to keeping her loyal legion of followers updated on how 21-year-old Harvey is doing.

Katie Price shares amazing news about Harvey
Harvey, who has autism, set a world record for the longest drawing of a train. He broke the record with a 21.3 metre-long drawing of his favourite mode of transport.
It took Harvey four weeks to complete the Thameslink engine – complete with carriages, to beat the former record of 20 meters.
I’m absolutely thrilled for Harvey.
Guinness World Records adjudicators headed to the National Star College, near Cheltenham, Gloucestershire – where Harvey lives. There they measured it with the help of staff. He was then presented with a certificate alongside Katie and his family and friends.

Katie Price makes emotional confession about son Harvey
It comes after Katie opened up about her fears for her disabled son Harvey on The One Show in May. The TV star admitted that “it won’t be possible” for Harvey to achieve his “dream”.
The BBC show featured a segment about Harvey’s determination to get into employment. The show revealed that research shows that 86% of people with a learning disability desire a paid job, yet currently don’t have one. Katie admitted her worries and confessed she’s not sure if it’s “possible” for Harvey to have a job.
Katie’s son Harvey has septo-optic dysplasia, which affects his sight, hormones and behaviour. She confessed: “Like many other young people with a disability he’s finding it difficult making the transition into adulthood – especially when it comes to getting a job. I want nothing more than for Harvey to find his dream job – but because he needs so much support, I worry it won’t be possible.”
