A reality star in the United Kingdom was sentenced to 21 months in prison on Friday (3 MARCH 2023) for posting a private video of himself having sex with his ex-girlfriend Georgia Harrison on his OnlyFans website.
Stephen Bear, who won “Celebrity Big Brother” in 2016, was sentenced at Chelmsford Crown Court by Judge Christopher Morgan. The couple had consensual sex, according to the court, but Harrison had no idea it was being recorded. She asked him not to distribute the material, but it ended up on WhatsApp and then went viral online.
According to the prosecution, Bear “either uploaded it himself or had it uploaded to OnlyFans and profited financially.”
Bear denied all of the charges but was found guilty of voyeurism and two counts of disclosing private sexual photographs and films with the intent to cause distress on two counts. Bear was also ordered to sign the sex offender registry and given a five-year restraining order not to contact Harrison.
Harrison, who has appeared on the hit British reality shows “The Only Way Is Essex” and “Love Island,” waived her right to anonymity in order to raise awareness about the issue of revenge porn.
