JAILED Stephen Bear led a sham life far removed from the glam millionaire lifestyle he boasted about – living in a small terraced house and having a business based at his mum and dad's.
The disgraced reality TV star was jailed last week for 21 months for sharing online a private sex video with then-girlfriend Georgia Harrison without her permission.
Every day, a smug Bear, 33, would turn up to court in a Rolls Royce and claim to have made a fortune from various businesses and OnlyFans videos with model girlfriend Jessica Smith.
But the reality of his sad life is somewhat different.
Bear lives in a small end-of-terrace house in Loughton, Essex, and rented the Roller just to show off for the cameras.
Fame-hungry Bear's companies have all dismally failed with the last one, Stephen Bear Enterprise Ltd, being dissolved last week without ever filing accounts, which makes it eight firms he’s folded with none making a profit.

The only active company is called Cubanlink Ltd, which gives his parents Linda and Stephen’s home address in Walthamstow as its registered office.
Bear is the sole director of the company, which supposedly retails in “wholesale clothing and footwear”.
His occupation is given as “shop assistant”.
Former girlfriend Charlotte Crosby can testify what a loser in business he is after suffering financial heartache from their joint venture His and Hers Enterprises Limited.

Charlotte was forced to petition the High Court of Justice Business and Property Courts to wind the company up, which was dissolved in February last year.
Bear failed to repay the £1,268 he owed to the company and ex-Geordie Shore fave Charlotte’s company CLC Enterprise was left being owed £30,366.
A spokesperson for Charlotte said: “Mr Bear owed the company £1268 which was never repaid and the only creditor in the insolvency proceedings was Charlotte’s own parent company.
“Charlotte ensured that all other creditors were paid in full. Charlotte also instigated and solely funded the court application, when Mr Bear [and his various representatives] failed to deal with outstanding matters and engage with the required corporate procedures.
“Charlotte does not owe anyone anything.”
In February 2021, after being arrested for revenge porn, he joined the celebrity platform Cameo, charging £26.25 for personalised videos.
And in October 2021, he boasted he'd rented a private island in the Maldives to film adult content with girlfriend Jessica Smith.
In the same month, he admitted to making just £29.90 from attempting to be a YouTube star and lifted the lid on the harsh realities of being a social media star.

"Guys look I'm not making this video to show off how much money I'm on, I'm not showing off how much money I got paid for this 15,000 views," Bear told his "fans".
"Holding his laptop up for everyone to see the screen, he pointed at his earnings and said: "For nearly 15000 views I got a total of £29.90. How crazy is that?”
