Stephen Bear ‘moved to wing for vulnerable prisoners’ as concerns for welfare grow

'Bear is being treated with kid gloves'

The disgraced reality star - best known for appearing on Ex On The Beach and Celebrity Big Brother - was sentenced to 21 months behind bars earlier this month for sharing a video of him having sex with former partner Georgia Harrison on OnlyFans.

He shared CCTV footage of himself and he Love Island star having sex, and uploaded it to OnlyFans without her permission, making more than £40,000 from the clip.

Bear, 33, was found guilty of voyeurism and disclosing private, sexual photographs and films in December.

Now, reports have claimed that the former TV personality is in a "vulnerable" state and has been placed in an "isolation wing" where prison staff can "keep an eye" on him.

Sources say guards have been 'ordered' to watch over Bear as concerns for his welfare grow.

"Bear is being treated with kid gloves," an insider told The Mirror.

They added: "There’s always a concern about high-profile prisoners.

"Everyone in here knows what he’s done and how he fancies himself as a celebrity."

This comes after another source reported that Bear had been placed on suicide watch and was at his "lowest ebb."

The source told the Sun that Bear hadn’t expected to be given a custodial sentence for his crimes, and had been "crying for days" in his cell.

They said: “He never expected he would be jailed and is completely unprepared."

Along with the custodial sentence he was handed last week, he was also placed on the Sex Offenders Register for 10 years and given a five-year restraining order banning him from contacting Harrison.
