Katie Price has issued a stark warning to online trolls.
The mum-of-five, 42, has spoken for years about the heart-breaking abuse aimed at eldest son Harvey via social media, usually over his disabilities or his race.
And in recent years she's voiced her concerns over the Online Harms Bill, reckoning it doesn't go far enough.
Katie says "we have no other option" - and is calling for the government to remove online anonymity in a bid to curb trolling.
Laying out her case in a moving piece for The Independent, Katie writes: "My name is Katie Price. My son Harvey is disabled.
"He has an underactive thyroid, partial blindness and diabetes, as well as Prader-Willi Syndrome – and he is also the kind and gentle son of a person regularly in the public eye.
"I've seen Harvey mocked and belittled since he was a small boy, because of his disabilities, and because of his race."
Katie writes that now Harvey is 18, he understands that he's been targeted by online trolls, and has told her "people are horrible to me."
Katie has also started up #TrackATroll, a hashtag fixed to an online petition that aims to allow the tracking and tracing of those "who abuse people and spread hatred online."
Her main call is for social media sites to require a verifiable form of ID upon the set-up of a new account, and a parent or guardian's consent for any users under 18.
Katie's petition has racked up more than 140,000 signatures, and has even garnered the support of Andrew Griffith MP.
She continues to warn trolls that she will be ceaseless in her mission to expose anyone who bullies people like Harvey, insisiting that no-one should be able to rely on anonymity to be cruel.
Katie goes on to address concerns that have been raised over her ideas, saying she understands fears that they would "out" vulnerable people like domestic abuse victims or LGBTQ+ teenagers.
She writes that nobody would be outed, or be required to provide any personal information.
She adds that a trackable IP address would not require personal data, but would allow the police to identify the source of abuse and act.
Katie also as Junior, 15, Princess, 13, Jett, seven, and Bunny, six.
