KATIE Price has given fans a heartbreaking health update on her mum Amy as she revealed she’s struggling to walk.
In 2017 Amy, 71, was diagnosed with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis [IPF], a terminal lung disease with a life expectancy of three to five years.

She underwent a lung transplant in November 2022 but last year said her health was still “up and down”.
During Katie’s latest podcast episode, the former glamour model was joined by her mum Amy alongside sister Sophie.
Katie, 46, said: “I do feel you for you mum, because people have to understand what my mum’s gone through, like her brain is just so active and still switched on.”
“She can’t do the things that she used to do, which is frustrating for her.”
Katie continued by revealing Amy’s mobility has reduced, and she often uses a wheelchair.
The mum-of-five explained: “Now here’s an example, because I am a patient person but when my mother teases me and says let’s go look at the shops in Isle of Wight, shall I take my walker or wheelchair and I’m like ‘no we’re taking your wheelchair because I’m not taking an hour’.”
Amy then hit back and said: “It’s not doing me any good because I’m meant to walk to help myself.”
Katie then told her listeners mum Amy will be tagging along to this year’s Isle of Wight festival.
“I hopefully should be walking,” said an optimistic Amy.
Amy previously confessed that, before being offered a transplant, she felt she was in her “final year”.
