Gemma Collins is also on the verge of landing a mega-deal — reputed to be over £150,000 — to appear in the South Africa-based series, despite quitting 2014’s main show after just three days.
All Stars will be filmed this autumn and go out in the New Year.
A source said: “It’s going to be a real coup.
“Harry is TV gold and was first on the list of wannabe celebrity contestants.”
Harry’s fee will have to go some to match Coleen Rooney (2024) and Nigel Farage (2023), who were said to have each earned £1.5million by appearing on the main series.

Almost 11 million tuned in live in 2018 to see Harry, dubbed Hazza in the Oz camp, become the show’s oldest winner at 71.
He had viewers in bits as he told how being wed to Sandra was like “winning the lottery”.
She was there to meet him on the bridge as he celebrated his prize.
Other classic moments saw Harry learn street slang from Fleur East and Malique Thompson-Dwyer, have his leg massaged by Noel Edmonds, and get toilet cleaning duty after revealing he had no sense of smell.
Enormous entertainment value
Harry, dad to football pundit Jamie and model Mark, also revealed his great love for jam roly poly, and assumed bosses secretly fed the contestants bacon rolls to keep them going.
Meanwhile, ITV executives have not been put off by Gemma, 44, walking out early in 2014 after complaining about the lack of a proper toilet and sparse food.
They are determined to land her as they believe she provides enormous entertainment value.
All Stars last aired in 2023 when singer Myleene Klass won and it was filmed in South Africa’s Kruger National Park.

A source said: “That was one of the biggest entertainment shows of the year averaging 5.2million views across its consecutive weeknight run.
“We’re very excited about bringing back campmates from over the years in a brand-new setting in South Africa.”
Harry’s spokesman said: “This is speculation.”
