More details have emerged of the accident that badly injured Katie Price’s son Harvey.

A source close to the family told the Sun that Harvey scalded himself after climbing into the bath fully clothed and turning on the hot tap.

The source added that Harvey’s injuries were made worse because when he was found - after an undetermined amount of time in the water - the rescuer tore off his clothes and accidentally pulled off the weakened skin.

The source concluded: “It’s a million-to-one freak accident. No one could have stopped it.”

Harvey is still receiving treatment at a London hospital with mum Katie, aka Jordan, and her husband Peter Andre at his bedside.
