Georgia Harrison gives powerful speech about bringing ex Stephen Bear to justice

Georgia Harrison has given an inspirational speech after her ex, Stephen Bear, was jailed for leaking a ‘revenge porn' video.

The 33-year-old filmed himself and Georgia engaged in sexual intercourse on CCTV without her permission before leaking the tape on OnlyFans, with the video then ‘circulating globally and on other porn sites.’ Georgia bravely decided to waive her lifelong anonymity in the case, leading to a successful campaign for tougher punishments in ‘revenge porn cases’ where explicit videos and images are deliberately leaked.

Stephen was jailed for 21 months and ordered to pay Georgia a total of £207,000, after a judge ruled he had ‘deeply violated her privacy.’ Now Georgia has reflected on her ‘tough journey’ after giving a powerful speech at this year’s Glamour's Women Of The Year event where she scooped up an award for her activism.

Taking to the podium, she said: “It feels so magical to be standing here today accepting this award after what has been such a tough journey for me over the past few years.” She then recapped the horrific ordeal, saying she was the ‘victim of image-based sexual abuse and voyeurism which resulted in over 10 million people viewing sexually explicit content of me without her permission.’ Talking about why she waved her anonymity in the case, she said: “I went on to successfully convict my perpetrator and eventually use my experience to make an amendment to the image-based sexual abuse law, meaning future victims will find it far easier to also have a successful court case.” Opening up about how she has listened to other women’s personal stories, she added: “I do not want to see another generation of women feeling abused, violated and ashamed.
