The Daily Star reveals the area in Cape Town is a, 'crime hotspot,' and bosses are concerned for the safety of the islanders.

An insider tells the publication, 'It’s been arranged for armed guards to patrol the compound throughout the series.'

'They will have them surrounding the area so there is no chance of any breaches.'

The source explains, 'If it’s known to everyone in the area that a big TV show is in town, then it will become a target.'

'There are concerns there could be kidnap attempts if things aren’t done carefully.'

'Every measure possible is being taken to make sure this series goes to plan.'
