Such is Harry’s level of fame that the young star has hired a full-time bodyguard to protect him from fans while he’s on set.

An insider spoke to Mirror Online and said: “Harry has to have a full-time bodyguard to follow him around because fans have been breaking onto set to see him.”

The source continued: ‘He’s the only person who has a security guard at his side round the clock, but his minder follows him home too.

“[The fans] managed to find out where he’s staying and and have been camped outside his hotel even when he’s not even there.”

It looked like Harry had another tough day on set as he was covered in mud and dirt as he returned from filming out at sea.

The pop singer, who famously chopped off his long locks for the role, looked every inch the hardened soldier in his army gear.
