The video was later sold online, marking a traumatic turning point for her.
The video trashed her reputation, cost her work, and spread across free porn sites.
But the Love Island star didn’t back down as she fought relentlessly to get the footage removed and became a fierce campaigner against revenge porn, determined to expose the dark side of the industry.
But how does the online porn industry generate its massive profits, and who’s really raking in the cash while avoiding accountability?
Georgia dives deep to uncover the truth behind this murky world, shining a light on the individuals and systems exploiting others for financial gain, with little regard for the devastating consequences.
Through interviews with survivors, experts, and legal professionals, the film aims to raise awareness about the devastating consequences of this crime and the steps being taken to fight back.
As a passionate campaigner, the advocate is using this platform to educate the public, challenge societal attitudes, and highlight the urgent need for stronger protection for victims.
Stephen Bear was sentenced to 21 months in prison last March but was released early this January.
But things are looking up for Georgia, who reveals she’s dating a new man – who’s not in the public eye.
She told the press: “I think I’m the happiest I’ve been in a long time. I’m in a relationship at the moment and I’m really confident in it.
“The number one most important thing is just be authentically yourself. This is why I love Tinder so much, they’re really trying to empower women to understand how to step into your authenticity and how to have the confidence to get there. When you do that, you’re the most attractive version of you.”
She’s teamed up with Tinder and NGO NO MORE, who have opened a pop up nail bar, Nailing Dating, offering free manicures and dating tips.
“When I was younger, I would get really, really nervous, and overthink what I’m going to wear, what makeup am I going to get? Is he going to like me?” she finishes.
New revenge porn rules came into effect this year on January 31.
These were introduced to make it easier for authorities to prosecute cases of revenge porn.
With the changes, prosecutors would not have to prove intent to cause distress when someone shares intimate images, according to Revenge Porn Helpline.
Sharing intimate images with the intention to cause distress, embarrassment, and humiliation is now considered a serious offence.
The offence is treated more seriously if the image was shared for sexual gratification.
Revenge porn is when sexually explicit images or videos of individuals are shared without their consent.
It has been an offence since 2015 and can carry a jail term of up to two years.
“But as I’ve got older, I’ve definitely learned that the most attractive version of yourself is the authentic version of yourself.
“And if you try and change yourself, try and be like someone else, or try and be someone that the date would want you to be, then further down the line, they’re going to be in love with someone that isn’t you.
“So now on dates, I try to put those thoughts in the back of my head and completely be myself.
“If they don’t like me for me, then it doesn’t matter. They’re just not the one for me.”
