Katie Price has had another swipe at ex-partner and dad to son Harvey, Dwight Yorke, after saying he left her to 'fend for myself, for me and Harv' after 'cheating' on her
Katie Price has again hit out at her ex, Dwight Yorke, branding the former footballer a "cheat". The duo spent a brief time together between 2000 and 2001, welcoming son Harvey Price together.
However, the pair split while Katie, now 46, was pregnant, and she says he hasn't been there for their son - and even initially denied being his father. Now, Katie has once again hit out at the former Manchester United star, 53, while also saying the door is always open for him to be in Harvey's life.
‌
Harvey, who is now 22, has medical conditions including Prader-Willi Syndrome, autism and septo-optic dysplasia. Katie previously said Dwight ignored her attempts to involve him in his son's life.
‌
Speaking about always being the "breadwinner" in her life, Katie told Maya Rai on Outlet Ten Discussions: "I've always been the breadwinner. I'm always the one who's earned the money. I've never been with someone, ever... well, I was with Dwight Yorke."
She continued: "But he cheated on me and that ended anyway and he wasn't around for Harv. So, that's a different thing. I fended for myself, for me and Harv.
"Even though Dwight is very welcome, any time, to come into Harvey's life, because I'm not that kind of person."
It's far from the first time Katie has hit out at her former partner. Katie alleged their relationship broke down after she discovered Dwight had cheated. The model once told how she was on a lingerie photoshoot when she heard that the sportsman had been partying with other women.
During a 2009 interview, Dwight addressed the allegations made against him and admitted he wasn't the 'perfect partner'. He said at the time: "I think anyone who's in a relationship would like their partner to be faithful and I'm saying I wasn't the perfect partner, she knows that."
‌
And speaking of his failed relationship with Harvey, Dwight added at the time: "It is a combination of different things, one my time schedule and being based up in Manchester and a footballer on an everyday basis.
"Not sitting here and say I'm a total perfect father, I've made mistakes along the way and I would love to turn the clock back."
However, in his own book published the same year, Born To Score, he painted a very different picture of his feelings towards his son. He wrote: "From the moment I set eyes on the little fella, I have loved my son like I could never ever have imagined possible.
‌
"I am not going to hear anymore that I did not care for Harvey, or have any understanding of his needs or that I was not interested in his welfare. Over the years I have heard Katie saying how [Peter] Andre is Harvey's dad and what a terrible, uncaring father I have been, all of which sticks in my throat.
"Maybe if she had not made life so difficult for me, might have been able to take a far more proactive role."
