Lee Andrews, husband of Katie Price, has threatened to fight comedian Daniel O'Reilly, known as Dapper Laughs, after he allegedly made another joke about Katie's disabled son Harvey. Andrews posted a video on Instagram offering to face O'Reilly in the boxing ring in June, saying he would 'knock your fat t**t all over the place'.
Katie Price had earlier called for O'Reilly to be 'cancelled' after he reportedly made a joke about Harvey during a show. She wrote on social media: 'Having to use my son with complex needs and can't defend himself for a joke, makes this man a disgusting human being, so I prey he gets cancelled for EVERYTHING.'
Harvey, 23, has Prader-Willi syndrome, autism, and septo-optic dysplasia, which causes blindness. This is not the first time Katie has defended her son from comedians' jokes; in 2010, she criticised Frankie Boyle for a joke about Harvey, then aged eight, and later condemned Channel 4 for repeating the broadcast.
Katie accused the broadcaster of endorsing discrimination, saying: 'They are saying it is ok to ridicule people - even children - for disability in a way they would not dare over race or sexual orientation.' Channel 4 defended its decision, stating that comedy that 'takes risks and pushes boundaries' should have a space on terrestrial TV.
