England rugby captain Chris Robshaw has admitted that he is being "more cautious" when out in public due to the attention that he receives from the paparazzi.

Earlier this month, the 28-year-old was caught on camera spending time with his girlfriend Camilla Kerslake in Barbados.

The Harlequins player has since decided to seek advice from former England cricketer Andrew Strauss and ex-England rugby skipper Lawrence Dallaglio about how to deal with the press attention.

"Being papped is not something we welcomed or wanted," the Daily Mail quotes Robshaw as saying. "You do have to be more cautious when you are doing anything and it's not natural.

"It's a new situation and have sat down with guys like Andrew Strauss and Lawrence Dallaglio who have been through this before at the very highest level.

"They have been under intense scrutiny and come through the other side and it's about using their knowledge of how tough it can become and then prepare for what may come."

Robshaw is expected to lead England in the World Cup on home turf later this year.
