He has two younger sisters, Jemima and Isobel. Harrison was diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) at a young age which, due to a lack of appropriate support for his diagnosis, made him a troublesome student. He was suspended from Ackworth School after a dare from his friend to "moon" his mathematics teacher. Harrison stated that he was an opinionated child and felt that his energetic nature was often misunderstood. Harrison enrolled at the Arts Educational Schools, London, but quit in 2015 due to what he called its "painting by numbers" approach to creativity.
