Earlier on Tuesday, Katie had thanked fans for their messages of support following Harvey’s hospitalisation and praised the teen for being so ‘brave and strong.’
She wrote on Instagram: ‘I can confirm Harvey still in intensive care, he is more comfortable, it’s hard as due to limited visiting hours and covid I can’t be by his bed side.
‘But he is being brave and strong , and able to face time him , I’ve let him know he has so much love and support and thank you ? ❤️❤️.’
Harvey, who is blind and autistic and has Prader-Willi syndrome, was taken to hospital at the end of June for ‘urgent medical care’ after falling ill at his sister Princess’ birthday party.
He had complained of ‘needle-like’ chest pains and was treated by doctors and discharged the same day.
