Katie Price’s terminally ill mum Amy has spoken out about her lung condition, idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, and admitted she’d have “no chance” of recovering if she were to catch Covid.
The former glamour model and her mother appeared on Good Morning Britain yesterday via video link from their respective homes as they discussed how difficult it’s been not seeing each other due to Amy being extremely high risk.
But despite feeling she was “in the last couple of years of [her] life now,” Amy spoke with optimism about getting on the transplant list.
"I'm very up and down really, to be honest with you,” she told hosts Piers Morgan and Susanna Reid. “What with Covid and everything, if I catch a cold or Covid there's just no hope, so that would be the end of it for me. But positively, I'm hoping, I'm pushing to see if I can get on the transplant list.”

She continued, “Because there is no cure there's nothing else they can do for me really, it's just palliative care, they're just trying to keep me comfortable.
“My age is against me and the results are not that good as you get older and you could die in the operating theatre, you could reject (the donated organ)... and if you can get through all of that, you would have a better quality of life and maybe live another two or three years.”

Katie Price gives devastating update on her terminally ill mum Amy
Amy received her terminal diagnosis in 2017 and the following year, Katie broke down on Loose Women as she gave an update on her mum’s health.
“My mum is dying, it’s that simple,” she said. “They normally diagnose it three to five years but mum has already had to change her life. She’s sold her house because of the stairs. She really struggles with them.
“But she could get a cold now, not get rid of it, and die within month – that’s how bad it is. Either way, she hasn’t got long.”
