Who is W2S?

Harry was born on November 24, 1996, in Guernsey but grew up in Alderney - one of the Channel Islands. He moved with his family back to Guernsey in 2004 when he was 6. Lewis attended Guernsey Grammar School along with his younger brother Josh and sister Rosie. 

Harry loved sports as a child, he played for a local football team called "Rangers F.C." during his childhood. W2S discovered his passion for gaming when his parents bought him a Nintendo GameCube for £5 ($7) from a car boot sale. He was excellent at his school as he achieved A+ on his yearly GCSE maths exam.

W2S lived with his family in Guernsey until 2014. When he was just 17 years old, he moved on his own to London, to an apartment in the Stratford Halo tower. Harry shared the condo with Sidemen members Callux and Calfreezy. W2S bought a dog named Herb in 2014. The dog lived with Harry at first, but he didn't have enough time to take care of him. Herb lives with Harry's parents in Gurnsey. 

They moved to a proper house next to the river Thames in 2018. In 2020, Callux moved out to his own home, Harry and Calfreezy moved together into a new, smaller apartment.

The third channel is called SidemenReacts, where they upload their reaction videos every day.
