Katie Price takes swipe at ‘cheating’ Dwight Yorke after he abandoned son Harvey
KATIE Price has taken a swipe at ‘cheating’ ex Dwight Yorke after he abandoned their son Harvey.
The former glamour model, 46, and former footballer Dwight, 53, dated for a short period between 2000 and 2001, but split shortly after Katie told him she was pregnant.
Their son Harvey – who has medical conditions including Prader-Willi Syndrome, autism and septo-optic dysplasia – was born in May 2002.
Speaking on Outlet Ten Discussions, Katie said she had “always been the breadwinner” in her past relationships.
She told host Maya Rai: “I’ve always been the breadwinner. I’m always the one who’s earned the money.
“I’ve never been with someone, ever… well, I was with Dwight Yorke.”
Katie added: “But he cheated on me and that ended anyway and he wasn’t around for Harv.
“So, that’s a different thing. I fended for myself, for me and Harv.
“Even though Dwight is very welcome, any time, to come into Harvey’s life, because I’m not that kind of person.”
Former Manchester United star Dwight initially denied he was the father, demanding a DNA test.
However, a paternity test would later confirm him to be the baby’s dad.
Last year, Katie took a swipe at her ex by claiming Dwight had only seen Harvey “nine times” since his birth.
In an interview on the Anything Goes podcast with James English, Katie addressed the lack of contact Dwight has had with his son.
She told the host: “I think he’s seen Harvey about nine times in his life.”
Katie added: “I’ve tried to send him pictures of Harvey on Instagram, Harvey playing the piano, he just ignores everything – doesn’t want to know.
“But the door’s always open. Always.”
It comes as Katie was said to have been snubbed by eldest daughter Princess Andre as the teen launched a fly on the wall TV series.
