    STEPHEN Bear yelled at Georgia Harrison today as she opened up about her sex tape hell during a court hearing.The disgraced reality star made the outburst as he waits to find out how much money – if any – Georgia will get from the £22,305.46 he raked in from the OnlyFans video.Georgia Harrison has arrived at court supported by loved onesCredit: PAShe is due to hear how much Stephen Bear must pay back from their sex tapeCredit: PAGeorgia previously bravely opened up about the ordealCredit: instagramGeorgia told a confiscation hearing at Chelmsford Crown Court how the leaked tape left her feeling the “lowest” she had ever been.As she revealed how Bear has not shown “any remorse or apologised”, he shouted out: “How am I meant to apologise. I have a restraining order. I would be nicked.”Andrew Bousfield, prosecuting, said he could have said sorry through his barrister, adding: “The more Mr Bear speaks the more comes out about his character too.”Georgia bravely revealed how she had “lived in fear” over the tape and told the court she “hated herself” for it.Read more newsShe added: “This whole situation has had a massive effect on every aspect of my life. It put me back financially and has had a huge effect emotionally.”One thing that will always really affect me is that if one day I want to have children that footage is still out there and will always be out there. He made money from the video which I do not think is fair.”The Love Island star also revealed how she suffered a loss of earnings from the video as she opened up about the ordeal.She said brands withdrew from working with her but the emotional damage was worse than the financial effect on her life.Most read in ShowbizGeorgia said: “I was at the lowest I have ever been. Imagine everyone talking about it. I could not go to the gym or bars. Everyone was talking about it.”Imagine walking into a room where you do not know them, but they have seen you in a sexual act. That’s what I have had to endure and it will impact me for the rest of my life. Effectively I’ve been put into the porn industry.Love Island stars Anton Danyluk and Georgia Harrison celebrate first milestone together outside of the villa after ‘showmance’ claims”I have had to live in fear knowing this would come out and that my family and everyone I know would see it. When it did come out it was the worst feeling possible.”I hated myself and really blamed myself for putting myself in that position with the individual. It changed the way I looked at myself and the world. I had a much more innocent view of the world. “It changed that I looked at myself as a person. I have built myself up but for a very long time it really ruined me. I would cry myself to sleep.”Self-proclaimed “billionaire” Bear previously claimed he was on Jobseeker’s Allowance and could only afford to pay £10-a-week due to his financial struggles.The disgraced reality star, who was jailed for 21 months over the sex tape, allegedly has just “£60,000 in a house and little else” to his name.Bear, who sold his home while in prison, has indicated he “doesn’t want a single penny” to go to his ex-girlfriend.He has been accused of “dancing in the shadows” as Mr Bousfield previously said Bear has refused to give any evidence on his profits.At the time the video was uploaded, he was “pretending to be a billionaire on his Twitter account” selling sexual content.But Financial Investigator Laura Mackenzie, from Essex Police’s Economic Crime Unit, said: “He wasn’t a billionaire at all, no. His bank account was overdrawn.”She told the court Bear charged $9.99 (£7.95) to view the video on his OnlyFans account, which had 1,061 subscribers.He originally made £1,650.98 but this figure increased to £22,305.06 when his subscribers rose by 822 in the month before Georgia was made aware of the clip.Bear’s missing ‘billions’THE Ex on the Beach star recently claimed he was skint after his prison release as he begged for a date from fans.

It was consensual sex but it certainly wasn’t consensual filming, and it was deeply violating.”Georgia, who bravely waived her right to anonymity, said the leak was her “worst nightmare” and left her feeling “violated and used”.She had begged Bear not to share the footage after he showed it to her as it would “upset her greatly”.She was later airdropped the 20 minute clip and discovered it was being offered for pay-per-view on OnlyFans.Bear had advertised the clip: “Can’t wait to see me f**k in the garden.”READ MORE SUN STORIESHe was previously found guilty of voyeurism and two counts of disclosing private, sexual photographs and films.Bear was released from prison in January after serving just ten months of his 21-month sentence.Georgia wore a long black coat and a white collarCredit: PABear wore fluffy leather loathers as he waits to learn how much he will need to cough upCredit: PAGeorgia recently left the Love Island villa with AntonCredit: GettyBear was jailed for 21 months for the sex tape shameCredit: TikTok More
