Junior Andre has spoken out in response to fans who have expressed concerns about his mum, Katie Price.
Katie, 47, was spotted looking worryingly thin earlier this month when she attended the store launch of her friend, TOWIE star Yazmin Oukhellou, in Hertfordshire.
The former glamour model donned brown lace leggings and a bomber jacket, and appeared to need help from friends when traversing a staircase.
Katie also revealed she was hospitalised earlier this year after a “dramatic” weight loss.
Junior Andre reveals truth about Katie Price’s health
However, for all those concerned, Junior, 20, has revealed that his family are “the best they’ve ever been” as they prepare for Christmas.
He told the Mail: “People don’t know her like we know her. She is doing great, she’s so loving, and we love her so much. We can’t wait to see her over Christmas. I am literally round her house all the time. They don’t know what’s going on behind closed doors. To be honest, I am in the best place with my family that I’ve ever been.”
Junior continued: “People can say and think what they like, but they don’t actually know. They are hearing it from me that we are all great and probably the best we have ever been.”
Katie Price’s worrying weight loss
Junior’s honest admission comes after Katie documented her “unexplained” weight loss on Snapchat.
She told followers on the photo-sharing app that doctors were doing blood tests to assess what may be causing her body to shed the pounds.
“I’ve been up early at the doctors so she could do some bloods and because my veins are so [bleep] they had three attempts,” Katie said in September.
“The reason I’m going to the doctors is because I keep losing weight and I don’t know why. So that’s that.”
The mum-of-five has also revealed she is quitting vaping. Taking to TikTok, she shared an X-ray of a pair of lungs, with the picture claiming vaping had been linked to lung disease.
“I have to stop,” she said.
It’s a particularly emotional topic for the star. Katie’s mother, Amy, was diagnosed with terminal lung disease back in 2017.
Junior Andre’s Christmas plans
Regardless of any ongoing health issues, Junior is excited to be spending the festive season with his family.
While he spends Christmas Eve with his dad, singer Peter Andre, he then sees mum Katie on Christmas Day. Junior will also spend time with his siblings; Harvey, 23, Princess, 18, Jett, 12, and 11-year-old Bunny.
“My mum has everything, so she’s hard to buy for, but it’s all about the thought and the sentiment. I know my mum and what will make her emotional – probably better than anyone, along with my siblings. Our tradition for Christmas is literally just family, food, music, and presents. We always have Christmas music playing in the background, the fireplace is on and matching PJs,” he added.
