Alex Reid has hit out at Peter Andre for claiming that Katie Price has banned him from seeing her son Harvey.

The cagefighter says that Peter is always welcome to spend time with the disabled child, as long as the proper care is available.

He wrote in Star magazine: “I have really felt for Katie over the past few weeks, in the face of false stories about Harvey.

“Just so you know, Kate has not banned from seeing him and Pete knows that until he sorts out a nanny to help with Hharvey’s special needs, he could see Harvey at Kate’s house – or Kate would bring to meet him.

“However, Pete has not seen since 14 February – so where the story about his recent reunion with came from, I don’t know!

“Pete will always be a father to Katie’s kids.

“He is respected in our household because of that, so I hope he does not feel the need to continue as he has of late.”
