Entertainment

Stephen Bear has been ordered to pay £22,305 over profits he made from a sex tape he posted of his former partner Georgia Harrison.

The former Celebrity Big Brother winner was released from prison earlier this year having served 10-and-a-half months for posting on his OnlyFans page intimate footage of him and Harrison, a former The Only Way Is Essex star, without consent.

Bear, 34, has now been ordered to pay the £22,305 that prosecutors said he earned from illegally sharing a sex tape during the Proceeds of Crime Act hearing at Chelmsford Crown Court. He faces nine months in prison if he does not pay the money back within three months.

He has also been ordered to pay £5,000 in compensation to Love Island star Harrison.

Bear, who was found guilty of voyeurism and of two counts of disclosing private sexual photographs and films with intent to cause distress, was jailed in March 2023. He was released from HMP Brixton in south London in January.
