Convicted sex offender Stephen Bear has shared the news of his forthcoming parenthood with his 18-year-old partner. The 35-year-old former reality TV star, known for his appearances on shows like Celebrity Big Brother and Love Island, served a 21-month sentence for his involvement in a sex tape scandal with his ex-girlfriend Georgia Harrison.
Bear made the announcement on social media, expressing his excitement about becoming a father. In a video message, he revealed that they are expecting a baby and shared their decision not to know the baby’s gender yet. He humorously mentioned that their child would play football for the Brazilian national team due to their mixed English-Brazilian heritage.
The couple showcased a tiny Brazilian football team babygro with ‘Bear’ and the number nine printed on it, adding to their joyous revelation. They also included footage of a scan showing the baby’s healthy heartbeat.
After his release from prison in January 2024, Bear was instructed to pay a substantial sum in fines and compensation, following his conviction for voyeurism and disclosing private sexual content without consent. Despite his legal troubles, Bear had previously flaunted his freedom on social media while in Brazil with his new partner, daring the authorities to apprehend him.
