Harvey, whose father is Dwight Yorke, was rushed to hospital after struggling to breathe, leaving his mum terrified for his life.

This is the second health scare her son has had in recent weeks.

Just a couple of weeks ago, he fell ill at sister Princess's 13th birthday part and was rushed to hospital.

He had returned home and was said to be recovering well under his loving mum's care.

Now, he's in intensive care after being taken to a specialist paediatric hospital.

Harvey has a number of health conditions including Prader-Willi Syndrome and partial blindness.

He is also on the autistic spectrum.

After his last hospital rush, doctors carried out tests and thought he was showing the beginnings of a chest infection, but he was expected to make a full recovery.

He appeared in a video alongside his mum and was heard saying he was doing well and was happy to be back home.

Katie explained after returning home that she had called an ambulance after Harvey began complaining of chest pains.
