Junior Andre has spoken out in defence of his older brother Harvey after he was targeted by an online troll. The 11-year-old son of Peter Andre and Katie Price appeared in a series of videos on his mum's Instagam account on Tuesday to make an impassioned speech about a "disgusting" recent attack on Harvey.

"I cannot believe this guy has made disgusting comments about my brother. Do you know how heartbreaking it is?" Junior says in the videos. "Imagine your brother or sister is paralysed… would you fun of them?

"It's just really hard because I love Harvey so much. Everyone who knows Harvey knows he's such an innocent and loving boy.

"(The troll) has the guts to say things on social media, let's see if he has the guts to apologise. I bet he can't do that."

Junior's comments came just a few hours after model Katie launched a huge social media drive to name and shame the cruel internet user, who had posted images mocking 14-year-old Harvey and his disabilities.

Harvey was born blind and suffers from autism, ADHA and Prader-Willi syndrome. Katie has long campaigned against online abuse of her son, and just a few months ago publicly called out a number of people who had set up fake accounts in Harvey's name and posted inappropriate comments.

The star has also asked for better policing of sites such as Twitter and Instagram. "There should be more done to stop this happening to people like me and others, so angry and upset," she tweeted.
