Shamed Stephen Bear ‘blows all of his £5 a week prison wages’ on tearful phone calls to girlfriend
Stephen Bear is spending all his prison wages on 16p-a-minute phone calls to his girlfriend, The Sun Online can exclusively reveal.
Bear, 33, earns a meagre £5-a-week packing tea and coffee for fellow lags and is blowing it all on emotional calls to Jessica Smith.
The cash is paid into the shamed ex reality star’s prison bank account and the money is then used as credit to make calls to the online adult model.
Bear’s jail work is his only source of income and he has to suffer the indignity of officers listening into the calls as he sobs down the blower.
The rules at HMP Chelmsford’s segregation wing, where Bear is being held, mean he is only allowed to make one phone call a day.
Loved ones are handed guides on speaking to cons at the jail when they visit.
The advice says: “Most prisoners have phones in their rooms but they will always have to call you. They buy phone credits to do this.
“They can phone anyone named on their list of friends and family. This list is checked by security when they first arrive so it may take a few days before they are able to call.
“Men in the segregation unit do not have phones in their rooms but are allowed one call a day.
“You can also exchange voicemails using the Prison Voicemail service.
“Officers may listen to phone calls as a way of preventing crime and helping keep people safe.”
Bear was jailed for 21 months earlier this month after he was found guilty of voyeurism and two counts of disclosing private, sexual photographs and films.
He had filmed himself having consensual sex with his Towie star ex Georgia Harrison and uploaded the clip to OnlyFans.
Bear had captured the footage on CCTV in his garden, and is estimated to have made at least £40,000 on the X-rated site.
Despite this, his new girlfriend Jessica has continued to stand by him.
She has visited him in prison and has also sent him photos of herself, which he has stuck over his bed.
Bear has since been moved to an “isolation unit” after being labelled “vulnerable”, as staff at HMP Chelmsford “keep an eye” on him.
It comes after The Sun told how Bear is a “broken man” and has been “crying for days” in his cell.
Meanwhile, Georgia has described Jessica as a “villain” who “enjoys infamy”.
Speaking on the GK Barry podcast, she said: “She got papped outside of the prison, which we all know is setup. She clearly just does want to be in the spotlight and wants to get followers onto her OnlyFans page.
“I just think she’s a villain and so is he. They enjoy infamy and wouldn’t encourage it. You were licking his a***hole on Twitter.”
Georgia added: “As much as I feel sorry for her, she met him when she was 21 and I know he’s extremely manipulative, especially when you don’t have anyone to give you their honest outside opinion.
“So I think the reason why I was so easily manipulated on The Challenge is because I didn’t have friends and family or any way of escaping the bubble that I was in with him. And she’s clearly in a bubble because they don’t leave their f****** house.”
