Vile Stephen Bear teases 'big things to come' as he becomes TikTok influencer
Stephen Bear only recently got released from prison but was quick to jump on TikTok to talk to his fans.
The disgraced reality star, 33, was released early from prison after serving half of his sentence. The Ex on the Beach star was handed a 21-month sentence in March after being found guilty of sharing a Georgia Harrison without her permission. On January 17, he walked free after serving 11 months.
During his sentencing, Bear was also slapped with a restraining order and told not to contact Harrison for five years. Bear must also keep police informed of his whereabouts for an entire decade. Almost a week after leaving HMP Brixton, the media personality jumped on TikTok live to discuss his future.
Bear was seen lying on a single bed with a black metal frame pushed up against the corner of the room. The walls were covered in mould as he confidently talked to fans from Walthamstow. He wore a white tank top and rosary beads around his neck.
Towards the end of the Live, he told fans 'big things' are coming as many people sent him TikTok 'gifts'. The 'gifts' allow users to send creators virtual stickers which can be bought with real money with TikTok coins. According to fans on social media, he asked women to 'DM him' on the app.

He added: "I'm going to come up again, I'm going to have the glow up again. Don't worry. I haven't been sitting in prison just twiddling my thumbs. I've got big plans this year, big plans. So you lot are going to sit back and enjoy it."
He also called himself the 'fittest guy on TikTok, social media and real life' as he claimed it would be a 'waste of talent' if he didn't talk to his fans on the app every day.
Many people were shocked to find him on Live and rushed to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their disapproval of seeing him on their TikTok pages. One user said: "Why is Stephen Bear live on TikTok? Wasn’t he in prison?" while another posted: "Stephen Bear TikTok pan-handling from a rickety single bed in what looks like a bando was not what I expected to see this fine evening."
"The fact that Stephen Bear is out of jail and already on TikTok Live in Walthamstow is crazy," one shocked person commented. Earlier in the day, Bear posted a video on his TikTok page of him jogging through a park before slowing down to walk towards the camera.
The cameraman walked closer to him as Bear started shadowboxing before flexing his muscles. Audio from the Tom Hardy movie Legend played as the audio. Not only did Bear share the video to TikTok, but he also shared the same video on X. He captioned the video: "It’s not how hard you can hit, It’s how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward…"
Before his release from prison, Bear boasted on social media the exact date he would be walking free, having spent 11 months behind bars. In a post from Bear's official X account, someone appearing to write for the inmate shared: "I will be leaving Brixton prison on the 17th January. Can't wait to get my life back on track. Who's excited to see me?". Attached to the post was a poll where his followers could vote whether or not they were "excited" for him to be set free from prison.
The poll racked up over 8,600 votes. 18.4% voted saying "I can't wait to see you," while a whopping 81.6% voted: "I'd rather watch paint dry." He was found guilty of voyeurism and two counts of disclosing private, sexual photographs and films with Georgia, without her consent. She bravely waived her right to anonymity.
