Celebrity Big Brother star Stephen Bear was arrested on suspicion of actual bodily harm after an alleged row with his girlfriend.
The reality TV star, 30, was taken into custody by police on Wednesday May 20 after cops were called to reports of an assault on a woman.
Bear was bailed until 8 June.
A source told Daily Star the alleged incident started when the TV star accused his unknown lover of cheating on him.
An insider said: “It all stemmed from Bear accusing her of cheating on him.
“The woman said she would go around in the morning to explain, which she did, and he took her phone off her started reading all the messages.

“Bear found out she had allegedly been speaking to another guy and he lost it.”
In a statement to Daily Star Online, Essex Police said: “We received a report on 20 May that a woman had been assaulted at an address in Loughton.
“A 30 year-old man was arrested on suspicion of ABH. He has since been released on bail.”
Last week the former Ex On The Beach star publicly shared footage of three police officers standing with him outside his home to his 1.6m followers on Instagram.

The 39 second clip begins with Bear standing outside a house surrounded by three police officers.
The TV star pans across the trio saying: “With the boys today – how’s it going chaps?”.
He then turns to one of the officers and says: “Would you be angry if your girlfriend f***ed someone else, brother?”
The officer respondes: “Not my place mate”, before Bear asks again: “Would you be angry though?”
The cop replies: “Don’t have one”, at which point the camera pans over to the second officer and the star asks: “Would you be angry mate. If your girlfriend f***ed someone else?”.
The officer’s response is not clear at which point Bear turns to the third officer and asks: “Would you be angry my brother?”

Putting his hand up, the policeman replies: “Listen, I don’t know what’s going on. I’m not going to start saying anything that’s….”
Bear then cuts him off and says: “She’s left my house last night and she’s f***ed someone else. And she’s then come round mine afterwards and denied it and I see all the messages.”
He then says: “I want to be left alone”, before the footage stops.
Star Online tried to contact Stephen Bear multiple times before publication.
