In the photo the mother and son are posing in the kitchen, with a packet of cake mix in view.
Katie captioned the shot with: “Baking with Harvey carrot cake for all the family today.”
While the majority of comments were kind, there were some trolls who used the picture to mum-shame her.
One wrote: “Thought you were really worried about Harvey’s weight!!! And you make a cake?!”
While another added: “Bake it from scratch Katie. You can make one much healthier than from that cake mix, and use real butter not spread.”
This one said: “Wouldn’t it have been healthier for Harvey if you’d made it from scratch.”
Another chimed in: “You moan about his weight but feed him cake.”
HARVEY’S WEIGHT JOURNEY
Meanwhile, last week Katie gave her fans an update on Harvey’s weight loss journey.
She has been worried about her son’s health after his weight reached 30st.
But now she has revealed they have looked at weight loss jabs to help him.
Speaking on the latest episode of her The Katie Price Show podcast, she said: “Hopefully Harvey starts his Mounjaro this week, but we’ll talk about that next week and I’ll go through all of what’s happening about that.”
The mum-of-five previously opened up on how Harvey’s life was at risk because of his size.
The TV personality’s eldest child has Prader-Willi syndrome, which sparks a constant desire to eat food and a permanent feeling of hunger which leads to obesity.

In a video posted in April, Katie revealed: “I’m so heartbroken and gutted that his weight is just going up.
“I just googled it in stones, 188kg is just a few kg of being 30 stone.
“It’s so life-threatening now, I’m still waiting for the doctors to get back to me starting on the Mounjaro and his journey to a healthy life.”
She continued: “It’s so sad his quality of life at the moment where he’s so big, he just can’t really do much.
“It’s just another thing I have to deal with because he’s at high risk of having a heart attack, he struggles to put his trainers or struggles to walk anywhere but I love him and I’m going to help him through this.
“So sad, obesity and his condition is sad, it’s sad to see someone go through it and he doesn’t understand.”
In February Katie told The Sun she consulted top doctors who suggested starting Harvey on the jabs in a bid to improve his chances of living longer.
Harvey’s biological dad is former footballer Dwight, 53, dated for a short period between 2000 and 2001, but split shortly after Katie told him she was pregnant.
Everything you need to know about fat jabs
Weight loss jabs are all the rage as studies and patient stories reveal they help people shed flab at almost unbelievable rates, as well as appearing to reduce the risk of serious diseases.
Wegovy – a modified version of type 2 diabetes drug Ozempic – and Mounjaro are the leading weight loss injections used in the UK.
Wegovy, real name semaglutide, has been used on the NHS for years while Mounjaro (tirzepatide) is a newer and more powerful addition to the market.
Mounjaro accounts for most private prescriptions for weight loss and is set to join Wegovy as an NHS staple this year.
How do they work?
The jabs work by suppressing your appetite, making you eat less so your body burns fat for energy instead and you lose weight.
They do this my mimicking a hormone called GLP-1, which signals to the brain when the stomach is full, so the drugs are officially called GLP-1 receptor agonists.
They slow down digestion and increase insulin production, lowering blood sugar, which is why they were first developed to treat type 2 diabetes in which patients’ sugar levels are too high.
Can I get them?
NHS prescriptions of weight loss drugs, mainly Wegovy and an older version called Saxenda (chemical name liraglutide), are controlled through specialist weight loss clinics.
Typically a patient will have to have a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or higher, classifying them as medically obese, and also have a weight-related health condition such as high blood pressure.
GPs generally do not prescribe the drugs for weight loss.
Private prescribers offer the jabs, most commonly Mounjaro, to anyone who is obese (BMI of 30+) or overweight (BMI 25-30) with a weight-related health risk.
Private pharmacies have been rapped for handing them out too easily and video calls or face-to-face appointments are now mandatory to check a patient is being truthful about their size and health.
Are there any risks?
Yes – side effects are common but most are relatively mild.
Around half of people taking the drug experience gut issues, including sickness, bloating, acid reflux, constipation and diarrhoea.
Dr Sarah Jarvis, GP and clinical consultant at patient.info, said: “One of the more uncommon side effects is severe acute pancreatitis, which is extremely painful and happens to one in 500 people.”
Other uncommon side effects include altered taste, kidney problems, allergic reactions, gallbladder problems and hypoglycemia.
Evidence has so far been inconclusive about whether the injections are damaging to patients’ mental health.
Figures obtained by The Sun show that, up to January 2025, 85 patient deaths in the UK were suspected to be linked to the medicines.
