On Harvey’s Twitter account, she wrote: “Took H out today. He struggles a bit with staying in. He understands there’s a ‘nasty bug’ and has to stay safe but we thought we’d try him with a mask on and test out if he’d wear it if needed in the future.
“We only went to the pet shop and he stayed outside with Lulu and kept it on the entire time.”
Alongside the tweet, a picture was shared of Harvey wearing his mask with his thumbs up, giving puppy Lulu a cuddle.

She explained Harvey, who has Down syndrome, showed no symptoms but is isolating as he “is more vulnerable due to suppressed immunity”.

Just days later, it was announced Emmerdale would no longer be filming due to the pandemic.
During isolation, his mum has been keeping followers updated on Harvey’s Twitter account.
It looks like the young actor has been keeping up with his school work as he has been homeschooled during isolation.
Recently, it was revealed Harvey achieved a huge accomplishment during lockdown – he learnt to ride his bike without stabilisers.
It also seems like Harvey has been spending plenty of time with his siblings and dog Lulu.
