Harry, Hayley & ITV1's This Morning show

Harry & I were invited on to ITV'1 This Morning show to talk about Harry's Progeria and to raise awareness for his disorder. Everyone was so lovely and Harry met lots of TV stars...

There was a very big suprise in store for Harry when the show secretly arranged for the beautiful Hayley and her mum, Kerry to come onto the show and meet. Harry's face was a picture.

Harry & Hayley then had a ride on the London Eye, eating candyfloss... next we had lunch with them and then they played in the park beneath the London Eye.

It was soon time to say our goodbyes but we had an amazing day and it was so amazing to finally meet Hayley & her wonderful mum, Kerry.

Thank you to everyone concerned at ITV1's This Morning for such a amazing day.
