Celebrity Big Brother’s 2016 winner repeatedly posted degrading comments about Ms Harrison on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, X and YouTube, between March and July 2025.
A five-year restraining order had expressly banned the 36-year-old from posting about his ex-partner, which was imposed in 2023 after Bear was found guilty of disclosing private sexual photographs and films of Ms Harrison with intent to cause distress, and voyeurism.
He also received a 21-month prison sentence for his crimes.
Bear made a series of accusations and degrading comments about Ms Harrison, according to screenshots she gave the police as evidence.
He attempted to cast doubt over his convictions, including by alleging that Ms Harrison and her mother had conspired to pervert the course of justice.
Bear also set up an online petition seeking support for a retrial and attempting to get hold of Ms Harrison’s bank statements.

He continued to post despite several of his accounts being shut down.
Senior Crown Prosecutor Andrew Young said: “Restraining orders are imposed by the courts to protect victims. Breaching them is a criminal offence which we will not hesitate to prosecute with the full force of the law.
“Over several months, Stephen Bear launched a campaign of abuse against Georgia Harrison MBE on his social media channels. He used his platforms to amplify abuse and encourage others to target her, despite being expressly prohibited from doing so.
“No woman should be made to live in fear because someone refuses to accept the restrictions placed on them by a court. Stephen Bear may have hidden behind a screen, but his actions had real-world consequences.
“The CPS will always seek to prosecute those who threaten, harass or intimidate women and girls, whether that behaviour takes place in person or online.”
It comes just hours after Bear admitted breaching his sex offenders register requirements by failing to tell police he had travelled to Brazil.
Bear, of Walthamstow, east London, had not informed police about a trip to Brazil last year and then failed to tell officers within three days that he had returned to the UK.
He also did not flag that he had acquired a new passport and two bank cards during the trip.
