Georgia Harrison reveals she was forced to move in with her mum when brands dumped her after Stephen Bear sex tape leak
GEORGIA Harrison lost brand deals and was forced to move in with her mum in the wake of Stephen Bear leaking a sex tape featuring her.
The reality star’s life was turned upside down when former pal Bear secretly captured them having sex on CCTV in his garden before uploading it to OnlyFans without her consent.
In her first and only interview following a jury finding Bear guilty of voyeurism and two counts of disclosing private, sexual photographs and films, Georgia opens up on how the ordeal decimated her income.
She explains: “After the video was out there, in one week my Instagram account got 72million impressions because so many people were coming to my page.
“The impact the video had both professionally and personally was so damaging.
“I was dropped by so many brands who didn’t want to work with me because of this video.
“My earnings dropped dramatically and I was forced to move back in with my mum. Financially it has been really tough.
“In terms of relationships, for the first year and a half I found it really hard to date people.
“I found it hard to trust anyone. I thought people looked at me and thought I was cheap.
“I would go on a date with someone I didn’t know and I would be sitting there thinking, ‘How can I tell them about this video?’ Then I would just not go on a second or third date. I just couldn’t face it.”
Georgia was also forced to move back into her mother’s house in Essex when she returned from Dubai because the flat she owns is opposite Bear’s house.
She adds: “I haven’t been able to go to my own flat for two years. The place I worked my whole life to buy.
“I will never feel comfortable living there again. One day I will sell it and try to move on.”
Bear, who turned up to Chelmsford Crown Court during his trial in a hired Rolls-Royce and wearing flamboyant suits, will be sentenced on January 31.
