Amanda and JK told listeners about Harry during yesterday's show, explaining how last year a tumour was found at the back of his brain.
Harry has been battling cancer for a year and having chemotherapy after it spread down his spinal chord.
And today Amanda and JK played messages of support from his friends and teachers.
He was described as an "absolute star" by one teacher, with a friend adding: "I was just shocked to hear the news, and just... why does it have to happen to him?

Amanda and JK were no doubt reflecting on their own experiences with cancer, after her usual co-host Jamie Theakston was diagnosed with stage 1 throat cancer earlier this year.
JK is filling in for Jamie during his treatment, and he previously sent a defiant message to fans.
He said: "So - I have cancer - but cancer doesn’t have me. The prognosis is very positive."
