Stephen Bear on 'suicide watch' in prison after 'crying in cell for days'

Stephen Bear has reportedly been placed on “suicide watch” after he became a “broken man” who has been “crying for day” because he never imagined he would be slapped with a prison sentence.

Last week, the former Celebrity Big Brother winner, 33, was sentenced to 21 months behind bars for uploading a sex tape with Love Island star Georgia Harrison on his OnlyFans page in 2020.

After settling in to his new residence, the MailOnline reports that his fiancée Jessica Smith – who has sent cards, emails, and voicemails – has even booked a visit to HMP Chelmsford to help boost his spirits.

Now, a source close to the humiliated star has claimed that he was “completely unprepared” for life behind bars, believe that he would have been spared a prison sentence if he was convicted.

It is understood that Bear is now on a plan for prisoners who are at risk of self-harm or suicide, which includes regular cell check and a buddy system to keep him from harm.

An insider told The Sun: “He is at his lowest ebb and has been crying for days. He never expected he would be jailed and is completely unprepared.

“Whatever anyone thinks about him, right now he is a broken man and feels awful for putting his family through this.”

They added: “His family members are very concerned for his wellbeing. It’s hard for them to see him suffer like this alone.

“It’s been a very difficult situation for Stephen’s loved ones. There is a lot of hatred being aimed towards Stephen and those close to him but they will continue to support him as he finishes his sentence.”

The star was thrown behind bars after he shared a sex tape – which had been captured on CCTV in his garden without Georgia Harrison’s consent – on the popular adult website and made £2,000 from it.

Despite his conviction and sentencing, his doting partner has vowed to remain at his side “through thick and thin”, claiming he didn’t receive a “fair trial”.

Earlier this week, Jessica took to TikTok to share how she has been supporting him since he was locked up.

She said: “When he gets taken to HMP and you haven’t even spoken to him yet cos he was taken on Friday but you’ve sent him two Moonpig cards, five emails, left countless voicemails and booked a visit to see him.”

The star is seen singing along to the song Crazy Girls and captioned the video with: “I swear I’m gonna look like a fruit cake when he receives it all. Can’t wait to see him tho.”
