Stephen Bear's fiancée, Jessica Smith, has broken her silence following Georgia Harrison's 'revenge porn' documentary.
In the ITV2 documentary that aired last night (21 March), Harrison opened up about her harrowing experience with Bear, including some sickening voice notes that he had sent her before their trial:
Earlier this month, the disgraced reality TV star was sentenced to 21 months in prison for sharing sexually explicit footage of him and his ex-girlfriend Harrison, 28, to OnlyFans without her knowledge.
He has also been ordered to sign the sex offender register and has been given a restraining order not to contact her.

Harrison, who appeared on Love Island back in 2017, opened up about the harrowing experience on ITV's Revenge Porn: Georgia vs Bear.
After the documentary aired, Jessica Smith, who has stood firmly by Bear the whole time, took to Instagram to show her support once again.
Sharing a photo of her and Bear on her Instagram Story, Smith wrote: "I love you so much... can't wait to see you soon and give u a big hug."
Bear and Smith went public with their relationship back in August 2021, and the pair have been joined at the hip ever since.

She appeared by Bear's side at every court appearance, and the couple regularly post sexually explicit content together online.
Bear and Harrison met on a reality TV series called The Challenge and briefly dated.
After their split, they had consensual sex at his Essex home in August 2020, which was recorded on his CCTV cameras without her knowledge or consent.

Eventually, the video was forwarded to a string of Whatsapp groups and went on to appear on OnlyFans.
Sharing explicit footage without consent was made illegal in 2015.
Harrison decided to go public and took Bear to court.
Bear had denied all charges against him and claimed that he had deleted the footage of him and Harrison and that it had been shared with no one other than her.

However, in December last year, the reality star was found guilty at Chelmsford Crown Court of voyeurism and of two counts of disclosing private sexual photographs and films with intent to cause distress.
In a statement after Bear's sentencing, Harrison said: "We are living in a time where so much of our lives and our children’s lives are spent online and it is so important that individuals are protected in the virtual world just as they are in reality.
"Social media has given us the egalitarian belief that we are all publishers but what it hasn’t done is regulate what we should responsibly publish.

"I hope me taking a stand gives other men and women who have fallen victim to revenge porn the courage to seek justice and most importantly show them that they have absolutely nothing to be ashamed of.
"I have felt ashamed, hurt, violated, even broken at times but today I stand here feeling empowered, grateful and a huge sense of unity with all of those who have reached out to support me throughout this ordeal."
