Katie Price looks unrecognisable after latest surgery in new BBC documentary

Fans reckon Katie Price was 'unrecognisable' in new documentary What Harvey Did Next.

The mum-of-five appeared in the BBC documentary on Monday night, which followed the journey of 19-year-old Harvey being enrolled in a specialist college for those with learning difficulties.

The former glamour model has gone under the knife multiple times this year and last, leaving followers shocked at how different she looks now.

As reported in The Mirror, viewers watching the BBC show branded Katie completely different compared to the beginning of her career when she was rising to fame as fresh faced topless model Jordan in the 90s.

One shocked fan wrote: "#katiepricewhatharveydidnext did next is quite interesting although #katieprice is no longer recognisable!! #bbcone."

And another questioned: "#katieprice how much work has she had done around here eyes shes only 43."

And one other alarmed fan wrote on Twitter: "Katie Price has done somethin proper weird to her face I can’t look at her without getting the creeps."

But some fans hit out at those who judged Katie on a superficial level.

One supportive viewer tweeted: "It is easy to belittle people like Katie Price. But her devotion to Harvey (when his a****le father walked away) is genuinely impressive. Many of us could not do what she does. I couldn't."

Another agreed, tweeting: "Those who criticise her couldn't walk a mile in her shoes. Don't judge."

And another fan tweeted: "#WhatHarveydidnext Superb @KatiePrice continues to be an advocate for single parents of children with complex additional needs like me. Highlighting the reality many don’t see."

Katie's documentary has been met with a barrage of criticism as many take issue with the fact the documentary was made during the height of her legal issues last year.

She crashed her car in a drink-drive incident last September and was sentenced to a 16-week suspended sentence, 100 hours' community work and a two-year driving ban last December after she pleaded guilty.

Other viewers took issue with the fact licence fee payer money was used to fund a documentary in light of her criminal conviction.

One tweeted: "what an utter waste of license money. Why are we funding this drink driving criminal."

Ahead of the show airing on BBC One on Monday night, a spokesperson for the Corporation defended the documentary from the criticism that had erupted before the one hour special had even aired.

They said: "Katie Price: What Harvey Did Next is a documentary that aims to explore and shine a light on a side of disability that is not often shown.

“The film highlights the experiences of Harvey Price, who lives with a range of complex medical and behavioural conditions, as he enters a new phase of adulthood and the difficult decisions that he and his Mum make along the way as he enrols at college.

"This film is very much focused on Harvey, and we believe that his is an important story to tell. This BBC programme does address Katie Price’s arrest, following her car accident, in the context of how Harvey’s life would be impacted if something had happened to his Mum."

However, they refused to reveal how much licence fee money has been spent as a fee for Katie to appear on the program.
