Katie Price calls out people who have got MBEs for doing 'less than her'

Katie Price has said she has seen others who have "done less" to get an MBE than her. The media personality has recently made a documentary with the BBC alongside son Harvey to highlight his experience attending college as he makes the transition to adulthood.

The 43-year-old has relentlessly campaigned for tougher laws on trolling after seeing her eldest son being targeted with abuse, reports the Mirror. Speaking to The Guardian, Katie said: "I’m in the Houses of Parliament campaigning for better laws and opening up people’s eyes to life for people with disabilities. Honestly, I see others getting MBEs who’ve done less than me, and I think: why not me?"

She went on to say that people in the public eye who have children with complex needs are "starting to be more open". "It wasn’t like that before," she said. "People didn’t like to admit it, as if they were ashamed. But I’ve always been so proud of Harvey. He’s not an embarrassment. He has plenty of qualities other people don’t. It’s as simple as that."
