Georgia Harrison has revealed the one relationship she has had since her revenge porn ordeal ended with him telling her nobody wants her because of the sex tape.
The reality personality, 28, said the new relationship originally helped to rebuild her trust, before it came crashing own again due to his cruel words during the break-up.
The revenge porn tape was posted on OnlyFans by Georgia’s ex-boyfriend Stephen Bear, 33, who is currently serving a 21 month prison sentence after being found guilty of voyeurism and two counts of disclosing private, sexual photos and films.
Speaking on Elizabeth Day’s How to Fail podcast, Georgia said she has had difficulties trusting people and has had only one relationship since.
However the new romance ended in heartbreak when Georgia’s ex-boyfriend played on her biggest insecurity and told her nobody would want to be with her after the invasive video was posted online for the world to see.

She said: ‘It’s been really hard. I did have one relationship since it happening, which in a way was like a big, big support to me.’
Georgia did reveal last year that she was in a new relationship, however she has never named him because he is not someone in the public eye.
She continued: ‘At the end of our relationship one of the things he said when we were splitting up was “Who would be with you anyway, you’ve been all over the internet”.
‘And I think that was really, really hard for me to hear, like firstly from someone who’d made me rebuild my trust, but secondly that’s like my biggest fear, that men are now going to be concerned about being with me in the future because this is something that could arise, especially if you go on to have a family with me.
‘It’s something that could come up in the future with our children. It does worry me that people don’t value me the same because of it.
‘And comments like that just sent me like really….I cried in my bed for two days.’
Asked if she has trust issues now, she said: ‘I think so.’
Georgia, who released a book Taking Back My Power this week, said she’s in a good place, but revealed how after Bear publicly posted his secretly filmed footage of them having sex she had a panic attack when someone filmed a parking dispute.

The ex TOWIE star, who has been calling for better online protections for people and pushing for the Online Safety Bill, explained she was ‘triggered’ during the dispute after an American started filming it, because of the nightmare she experienced when Bear shared the video from his home CCTV online.
Georgia said: ‘I was in LA after this happened and it was such a silly thing, but we came back to get in our car and our car had been blocked in, me and the girls.
‘We were basically arguing with the guy to move his car, they were anyway. It was getting a bit of an intense heated argument and then he started filming us, and I really was triggered.
‘I had close to a panic attack and I really, really just became overwhelmed with emotion, I was crying, I couldn’t catch my breath. I had to really be calmed down. I was a bit embarrassed about how I completely lost my shit.
‘It wasn’t until I got home and I processed what happened that I realised that because the guy had filmed me without my permission it really triggered a very overwhelming response with me.

‘But I can be on a television camera and be fine, but there’s obviously something inside of me where if someone films me where I don’t feel like they should be, it causes a really intense emotional reaction within my nervous system, something that I couldn’t even control.’
But she said that despite the hell that she has been through, including blaming herself, and losing many of her fashion and work contracts, the ordeal and also losing a close friend, has left her now feeling a sense of compassion towards Bear.
She said: ‘Anything like that in life gives you such a strong feeling of compassion for other individuals.’
Asked if she has compassion for Bear, she said: ‘Yeah, I do. I think he’s a really, really lost soul and I think his family should have got him help a long time ago, and he wouldn’t be where he is now if they took the relevant steps to take him to his GP and take him quite frankly to a mental institution.’
Asked if she fears his release, Georgia, who has moved back to the flat in Loughton, Essex, where they both used to live, said: ‘For the first time in a long time I walk down the street without any fear.
‘It’s not that I ever feared he would attack me, I would just fear his presence in general – like him driving past and having to see him.
‘But I don’t fear that he would try and do anything to hurt me in general. If anything I think I just fear for his own mental health and safety.
‘I don’t know what he’s going to do with his life now because he’s just gone so far beyond helping.’
Georgia and Bear got to know each other through the reality television and influencer circuits, and then started a relationship.
But they broke up and hadn’t spoken for a year when she met up with him after an invite ‘for a cup of tea’ and it ended up with them having lunch and then having sex.
Three months later he posted footage of their intercourse on OnlyFans before it went viral on the internet.
