Harvey Price will make an appearance in his sister Princess Andre‘s reality series, after their mother Katie claimed she was ‘banned’ from the ITV2 show.
Princess, 18, let cameras go behind-the-scenes of her busy life for The Princess Diaries, which has closely followed the separate business ventures of both the social media star and her older brother Junior.
While the series has included voice recordings from mum Katie, 47, video snippets of dad Peter, 52, and Princess’s stepmother Emily in series one, the former glamour model previously claimed she had been ‘banned’ from taking part.
Nonetheless, Harvey will make an appearance in the series alongside Junior, who has been a prominent feature since its debut episode on ITV2 last year.
In a first look at the upcoming episode of the reality format, which returns to screens on March 8 at 9pm, the social media star can be seen heaping praised on her brothers as she’s joined by Harvey, 23, and Junior, 20, for a day out on the train.
Smiling at the camera, Princess reveals: ‘Today is going to be quite a fun day, I’m going out with my two older brothers, Junior and Harvey.

‘We’re going to take Harvey on the train because he loves trains, so this is going to be a cute little day out – I feel like we don’t do it enough.’
Sat in the back of a taxi, Junior then tells Harvey: ‘Do you know what we’re doing today, Harv? We are going to go and see some trains!’
Princess chimes in: ‘We’re going to go sit on the train, and guess where we’re going?’ to which Junior then reveals: ‘East Croydon station!’
‘A few years ago, me and Junior would not have been able to take Harvey out without mum being there,’ Princess continues. ‘Now he’s gone to a residential school, I feel like he’s been disciplined a lot more.
‘I think he understands a bit more how to communicate with his emotions.’
Showcasing her understanding of Harvey’s needs, she adds: ‘Some of his triggers when we are out are like doors banging, or if there’s no food or anything.
‘The only thing is, once he does kick off, you need a lot of strength and you need to learn how to talk to him in order to help him calm down.
‘With me, I’m good at the talking and kind of relaxing him, whereas Junior is a lot better at the physical side of it. Honestly, we work well as a team.’
Footage shows the siblings looking at the trains, with Harvey, who has Prader-Willi Syndrome, septo-optic dysplasia, which causes blindness, and autism, sharing his excitement to be taking a journey together.

Katie previously suggested that she had been ‘banned’ from taking part in Princess’ TV show, with the mother-of-five saying in an episode of her podcast: ‘I’m not in it. Certain people don’t think it’s good for Princess to be seen with me.’
A source, however, explained: ‘There was never a ban in place from ITV on Katie appearing in The Princess Diaries.
‘It was a family matter and is ultimately down to Princess and what will be best for her, so there is a possibility fans will see Katie in the next two series.’
The show, which was so popular with viewers that it has been renewed for yet another season after its second hits screens, showed the teen at home with her family, including Pete and Emily, while Katie appeared only via a voice recording.
This season, Pete and Emily will not appear in the upcoming show, as they have pulled out following backlash from Katie.
Insiders told the Daily Mail that the influencer made the decision after discussions with her pop star father who agreed to step back, along with Emily, 36, to quieten the ‘noise’ surrounding his ex-wife Katie’s absence from the show.
A source revealed: ‘Pete and Emily will not feature in The Princess Diaries seasons two and three. It was discussed between him and Princess, and they decided as a family that it’s better for the show to focus on Princess alone, rather than her family life.
‘Katie was obviously very hurt over not being asked to film alongside Princess for season one, and she caused a lot of drama and upset behind the scenes.

‘No one wants Princess to feel caught between her two parents, so Pete has taken a massive step back, which he hopes will resolve many of the issues.
‘Everyone just wants the best for Princess, and the show is her series after all, now she’s 18, she can stand on her own two feet.’
Katie is due to make appearances during the upcoming season in a series of video calls with her daughter.
It comes after Princess and Junior broke their silence on mum Katie Price getting married to new husband Lee Andrews – revealing they are yet to meet him.
The brother-sister duo took to This Morning on Monday to open up about the second series of their reality show, The Princess Diaries, ahead of its return to ITV.
Princess, 18, and Junior, 20, let cameras follow their lives, taking a look at the behind-the-scenes of their separate business ventures and family life.
The series features appearances from mum Katie, 47, as well as dad Peter, 52, and stepmother Emily – with the siblings confirming all three would return in series two.
Talk soon turned away from the docu-series, as This Morning hosts Ben Shephard and Cat Deeley were keen to get the latest from the pair on their mum’s relationship.
The former glamour model shocked the showbiz world when she announced that she was engaged last month, just days after her breakup from reality star JJ Slater, 32.
She then wasted absolutely no time in appearing to get married to Dubai expat Lee, 43 – following up with a legal ceremony last week.
Records appeared to show that the pair officially signed on the dotted line to formally register the marriage on February 17.

Nonetheless, Princess revealed that she is yet to meet Lee, with Junior weighing in that the family are ‘happy as long as she’s happy’.
Asked if they had met their mum’s new husband yet, Princess said: ‘I’ve not met him.’
Junior quickly chimed in, as Princess nodded along: ‘Our mum is her own person, she’s her own woman, she’s going to do what she’s going to do and at the end of the day, we’re supportive of her as long as she’s happy.’
‘As long as she’s happy that’s all I care about,’ Junior added, as Princess chimed in: ‘If she’s happy, we’re happy.’
The pair also opened up on Katie and their dad, ex-husband Peter, confirming they’d finally ended their bitter 16 year feud.
The former glamour model and singer, 52, married in 2005, little more than a year after meeting as campmates on the third series of I’m A Celebrity.

They welcomed their two children before announcing their abrupt separation and subsequent divorce in 2009.
Katie is said to have stopped following Peter on the platform in 2021 after he reportedly called in a lawyer over claims she made in her memoir Harvey & Me.
But fans spotted the pair following each other on social media, a week after they shared a joint statement about ‘moving on positively’.
Friends claimed their children are the reason Katie and Peter resolved the acrimony that followed their divorce.
Reacting to the news, Princess explained of the new series of her reality show: ‘My mum, my dad and Emily have all agreed to step back from the series, but you will still see them on it.
‘My mum and dad have made a mutual agreement, hopefully by season three, they will be getting on well…’

Junior added: ‘We just want to move forward as a family, and hopefully for season three, you will see more of that.’
The brother and sister also hit back at comments against their reality series and their new found careers in the limelight, with Princess starting up her own beauty business, and Junior releasing music.
‘The things what we do now aren’t what our parents choose to do, it’s about us and what we chose to do,’ Princess explained.
‘I know I’ve worked really hard, and same with Junior, to be in music you have to have talent, you have to be talented to get far in life.’
Junior added: ‘We’re just young people trying to figure out our lives.’
It comes after Katie posed with a pregnancy test on Monday after claiming she is ‘having a child’ with new husband Lee.
Last week, Katie claimed she was having Lee’s child in a fiery Instagram post, directed at his ex Alana Percival, with Lee also writing: ‘Soon to be three’ alongside a pregnancy emoji.
Now returning to the platform she posed with a test but followers had to subscribe to her private Instagram for £2.99 a month to learn more.
The ex glamour model and mother-of-five, 47, shocked fans when she married the businessman, 43, in Dubai last month following a whirlwind ‘one-week’ romance.
In the clip, Katie said: ‘Hey guys so all the speculation, if you want to know the truth, subscribe and you’ll see the answer.’
It comes after Lee’s ex shared a scathing post where she accused him of ‘conning his own father’ and ‘taking everything you have until you have nothing left and have to rely on him’.
While Katie wrote in response: ‘@larnaapercival I know rejection doesn’t feel nice and I’m married to @wesleeeandrews the man you want and will never have again.
‘Your constant lies and put-downs is clearly showing how bitter you are, go live your life little girl. I know the truth and your now embarrassing yourself, go and have the little respect for yourself that’s left.
‘I know all about you and who you are at least I’m the real woman he has found and deserves, but please just enjoy watching us build our empire as I’m having his child.
‘I’ll enjoy the ride and big d**k energy now, I’m in the saddle, he’s the most beautiful human I know who never took anything from you. I’m the real feminine woman he deserves, not the male version you are.
‘Now disappear under that bridge you irrelevant little troll.’
Katie’s sister Sophie has previously hinted at her disapproval of her new marriage and said their podcast would be ‘paused‘ for the foreseeable future.
Meanwhile Katie and Lee have reportedly married again in a ‘legal’ ceremony after the Daily Mail revealed their original nuptials were all for show and bared no legal weight
Meanwhile daughter Princess Andre, 18, has told how her dad Peter’s relationship with her stepmum has given her hope that ‘true love does work’, after being left with her ‘guard up’ from witnessing all her mother’s many failed romances.
While Princess has remained tight-lipped on Katie’s fourth wedding until now, she was reported to be ‘completely horrified’ and ‘deeply concerned’ by the news, in the wake of a number of outrageous exposés about Lee’s work and relationships.
In a new interview this weekend, the teenager revealed she was yet to meet her new stepdad, but said that while her mum was ‘crazy’, she’s happy if Katie’s happy.
However, in the new series of her reality show, The Princess Diaries, the aspiring model made a point to declare that she had never been afraid to tell her parents if she had suspicions about someone close to them.
Princess candidly explained how growing up seeing Katie’s tumultuous love life first-hand – which has included four marriages and nine engagements – has made her very guarded.
‘I’ve seen first-hand what heartbreak can look like, and my mum is the prime example,’ she says in one episode, according to The Sun.
‘She’s had so many people do her wrong, and growing up seeing that has given me an eye-opener of what people can really be like.’
But while her mother’s past has made her wary when it comes to dating, she sweetly said that seeing her dad’s relationship with his wife Emily MacDonagh – with whom he shares children Millie, 12, Theo, nine, and Arabella, one – gives her hope.
She added: ‘Because of that, my guard is up. But obviously, I see my dad and Emily, and think true love does work.’
Princess went on to explain that she didn’t want to be expecting the worst out of people because of what she’d seen Katie go through, but insisted that she was still ‘switched-on’ and ready to tell her parents if she disliked someone.
She said: ‘It’s the worst way to live your life, thinking that [people are going to use you]. You can’t always be thinking of the negatives, but you have to be prepared.
‘I’m quite switched on, even when it comes to my parents’ friends. I’ll tell Mum and Dad: “Hmm, I don’t like that person.” I tell them if I’m suspicious of anyone around them.’
The Princess Diaries returns Sunday 8th March at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX
