Katie Price calls out 'disgusting human' Dapper Laughs for joke comedian made about son Harvey
Katie Price has called out comedian Daniel O'Reilly, who uses the stage name 'Dapper Laughs', saying he should be cancelled for a joke he told about her son Harvey at a recent gig.
Harvey is her son with former footballer Dwight Yorke, and the 23-year-old suffers from a rare genetic disorder called Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS).
Posting on social media, Price called out the comedian as a 'disgusting human' and said he should be cancelled as she'd heard he told a joke about Harvey, writing: "So I hear last night @dappersinstagram made a JOKE about my son Harvey AGAIN then said pretend I didn't say anything or I'll get cancelled again.
"He does charity football games for children and sure he has his own kids.

"Having to use my son with complex needs and can't defend himself for a JOKE makes this man a disgusting human being so I prey he gets cancelled for EVERYTHING."
In another post she went on to make a request of her followers, asking: "Please report @dappersinstagram as bullying Harvey. Who is clown that harasses and bully's others.'
"He needs removing from Instagram and should apologies for his horrible words to others."
Her new husband Lee Andrews also wrote a message to the comedian and challenged O'Reilly to a fight if he wanted one, calling him a 'little round punching bag'.
Andrews said: "@dapperinstagram leave my son Harvey alone.”
"Daniel, I'll fight you in Miss-fits in June. I won't ever train for it so I can knock your fat t**t all over like the stodgy little round punching bag you (are) son."
Price also shared a poster the comedian had used to promote a 2019 gig he'd called 'Dapper Laughs vs Harvey', with the poster featuring a mockup of the two of them as though they were going to have a fight.
She said the comedian 'hasn't learnt I will always defend my son HARVEY as he can't defend himself'.
In the past she's called out the comedian Frankie Boyle for telling a joke about her son, saying that just because Boyle was a comedian 'doesn't give him an excuse to go on stage and say these things'.
Police officers have also been fired for gross misconduct after sending 'discriminatory and offensive' messages on WhatsApp including some about Harvey.
Posting on his own social media today (20 April), O'Reilly made no direct mention of Price's comments but said: "Happy Monday! It’s a brand new fresh week - don’t start with the same mentality you ended last week on. Shift it, f**k it, let it go. Whoever is getting you down, f**k them
"Switch it up, change your perspective. Whatever it is you’re thinking about and worrying about, f**king shift it out the way and focus on the positive things in your life.
"I’m thinking about all of the beautiful things in my life today and I’m like, “Today, I’m going to take a f**king day off worrying”. Why don’t you do the same thing?”
The LADbible Group have contacted O'Reilly's representatives for comment.
