Stephen Bear’s fiancée Jessica Smith vows ‘through thick and thin’ after shamed reality star is jailed
STEPHEN Bear’s fiancée Jessica Smith has vowed to stay by his side “through thick and thin”.
The shamed reality TV star, 32, was yesterday jailed for 21 months after sharing a sex tape of him and his ex Georgia Harrison.
Bear filmed the consensual sex on CCTV then made at least £40,000 on OnlyFans from uploading the clip.
In the hours after he was jailed Jessica revealed she would stay with Bear while he was locked up.
The 23-year-old, who has a huge following on Instagram and OnlyFans, has also vowed to support Bear while he’s behind bars.
She uploaded a photo of them – with the Ex on the Beach star kissing her face – to Twitter.
Jessica captioned it: “Through thick and thin my love. I’ll see you soon.”
In another post the 23-year-old said: “I’ve lost half of my heart, I feel empty.”
Bear, who faced a maximum two-year sentence, was yesterday handed his sentence at Chelmsford Crown Court.
He was also placed on the Sex Offenders Register for ten years and was slapped with a five-year restraining order banning him from contacting Georgia.
Bear was previously found guilty of voyeurism and two counts of disclosing private, sexual photographs and films.
As he was taken down to the cells, brazen Bear said to the judge: “Have a good evening, enjoy your weekends everyone.”
Judge Christopher Morgan said a jail term was the “only appropriate” punishment for Bear’s sick crimes.
He dismissed Bear’s claims he was not aware the CCTV was recording him and Georgia when they had sex in the garden.
The judge also said Bear “deliberately lied” when he told Georgia he had deleted the video so he could “exploit the economic value” of it.
And he praised Georgia for speaking out, saying she had suffered “extensive humiliation and embarrassment”.
Brave Georgia yesterday said she was “happy and relieved” the matter was over in a statement outside court.
She also thanked fans for their support after bravely waiving her anonymity to speak out against her ex.
The star added: “Today’s sentence is a vindication of what I’ve been put through and sends a clear message that the police and the courts take this matter very seriously.
“I want to let all other victims of this crime know that I stand in solidarity with them and I have absolutely no regrets in waving my anonymity.
“I hope that this puts anyone off committing this sort of crime and I hope for anyone else who’s been a victim of it, it gives them some sort of justice.”
