I'm not having this conversation with you': Katie Price clashes with Katie Hopkins over tax-funded driver for disabled son Harvey

They have, so far, been getting along.

But Katie Hopkins and glamour model Katie Price came within a whisker of an almighty row during Monday evening's episode of Big Brother.
The tension arose while discussing the care of Katie Price's disabled son, Harvey.
During a conversation about her home life, Price explained how expensive it is for her to have a daily driver from her home in West Sussex to central London.

She added that the cost would be even more if she also had to fund a driver for her boy, who has a range of disabilities including blindness, autism, ADHD and Prader-Willi syndrome.

'He has a driver who takes him to school each day. He travels with a special nurse who looks after him and the driver is mindful of the situation - it's tax-payer funded, which is good.'
She continued: 'Look, don't get me wrong, but I believe that if you can afford something then you shouldn't allow the government to pick up the tab.'

Defending her actions, Price - who is worth an estimated £40 million - responded: 'But I don't earn a set amount each year, it changes all the time, so I never know how much I'm going to get.

'If the government offer to help, I'll take it.'
