Katie Price's son Harvey has cheekily called one of his mum's pantomime co-stars a 'fat pig' after making his own stage debut.
The former glamour model is currently playing the Wicked Fairy Carabosse in Sleeping Beauty in Liverpool. In her last show before Christmas, she was joined by surprise guests - Harvey, 21, and Bunny, nine.
Harvey, who has Prader-Willi syndrome and learning disabilities, delighted the audience when he said: "Merry Christmas! Hip hip, hip hip." The crowd responded with a warm "hurray!" Harvey continued: "Welcome to the pantomime ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls. If you're happy and you know it, my favourite," before sharing his favourite part of the popular children's song. The audience clapped and cheered him on.

Gareth went on to say: "What a kind soul love having him around Katie is just amazing to watch with not just him but her whole clan. Great bunch and a great Christmas!" In reaction to the lovely snap, one fan said: "Fat pig! Oh my god that's hilarious bless him, xxxx." Another commented: "She's [Katie] amazing!!! I said that to her the other day, she's so good with our kids and the best mum to her own! She's Beautiful inside and out!"
Katie Price and Danielle Lloyd 'bury the hatchet' after documentary feud
Since its launch earlier this month, Sleeping Beauty has gotten mixed reviews, and ticket prices have been dropped to draw in more viewers. Organisers of the MandS Bank Arena show posted on Facebook recently: "Calling all fairy tale fans! Sleeping Beauty has awakened at the MandS Bank Arena, and she's spinning a magical Christmas adventure for the whole family!"
They added: "For a limited time, get 25% off selected shows. Book your tickets now and escape into a world where dreams come true (and curses get broken by true love's kiss!)."
News of the price cut follows previous audience members labelling Katie's performance as embarrassing after she missed a few lines and dance steps. One spectator even criticised her on social media: "Maybe, just maybe Katie Price could learn the routines.
"She was an absolute disgrace. Clear to see how hard the other cast members have worked... very clear she thinks she can rock up making zero effort!!!"
Panto actor Bippo also made a cheeky remark about her performance, joking that she had only rehearsed "two of her 25 lines".
