The 21-year-old has Prader-Willi Syndrome, a complex condition that causes obesity and learning difficulties. He is also autistic and partially blind.

Katie said: "Harvey is supposed to be moving in four-and-a-half weeks, they've changed management and said they won't be able to cater for Harv, because he's too difficult. 

"So now I've got to find another placement for him... so yeah, more drama to deal with."

Later in the show, she said: "We worked months and months for that and he was told four-and-a-half weeks before that he couldn’t go there, and Harvey has been doing the countdown.

"Well it’s stressful because you want the right thing for your child and it is a lot of time and effort to go back and do more meetings, more forms, it is very time-consuming because you want the best for your child."

Finding the right care for Harvey has been a constant issue for Katie since her eldest reached adulthood.

Last year she had another run-in with a local authority over a place at a specialist college after a report allegedly found Harvey to have "no health issues".

His time at £350,000-a-year National Star College, Gloucestershire came under threat as a result.

Twice-bankrupt Katie, who lived three hours away in Horsham, West Sussex, appealed the decision.

Speaking on an episode of her podcast last spring, she said: "They've given me three months - he has to find somewhere else by July.

"With someone like Harvey, you need a transitional move, you need to do it slowly."

She added: "I'm trying to find somewhere nearer for Harvey, but three months isn't a long time."

This year he was finally set for new lodgings and it remains to be seen where he will now wend up.
