Georgia Harrison isn’t backing down. She’s seen the worst of what the internet can do, and she’s taking the fight straight to the top. In her latest ITV documentary, Georgia Harrison: Porn, Power, Profit, the Love Island and TOWIE star rips the lid off the grimy underworld of revenge porn, deepfakes, and digital exploitation—an industry profiting off stolen dignity and shattered privacy.
The 30-year-old reality TV star has already been through the fire. Her ex, Stephen Bear—once a Celebrity Big Brother winner, now a disgraced convict—illegally filmed and distributed explicit footage of the two of them without her consent.
The so-called “revenge porn” case ended with Bear being sentenced to 21 months behind bars in 2023. But the justice system’s slap on the wrist meant he walked free in just under a year, back on the streets by January 2024. The cherry on top? He was ordered to cough up just £22,305—the estimated blood money he made from leaking the footage on OnlyFans.
The Video That Won’t Die
But here’s the real gut-punch: even with the court’s ruling, the footage is still out there. No delete button, no closure, no escape. And for Harrison, that’s the rawest part.
“The hardest part for me was having to see how widespread my video still is,” she says in the documentary. “I have people messaging me all the time, sending me clips of it. It’s always in the back of my mind, but having to face exactly where it is and how many places it’s in—that was brutal.”
The documentary follows her as she tracks down the seedy corners of the web where her stolen privacy still lives. The goal? Expose the players keeping this vile trade alive. “We really wanted to get to the bottom of who is behind the posting of image-based sexual abuse,” she explains. “By pinpointing exactly where my video was, we could decipher how many different sites are profiting from this.”
A Broken System Enabling Digital Predators
Harrison’s doc goes beyond her own case, shining a spotlight on an industry-wide crisis. She meets other victims, investigative journalists, and even representatives from porn sites. She sits down with MPs from the Women and Equalities Committee, and even takes the fight to the Labour Party Conference. Her message? The system is broken, and it’s time for those in power to fix it.
“The only way to stop not just my video, but any victim’s video, from being shared in the future is for there to be more awareness,” she says. “The government and the big internet companies need to come together and face this head-on. If you cut off the money stream—the advertising at the bottom—then the people running these sites won’t keep putting up stolen footage because there’ll be no profit in it.”
She’s not just talking about revenge porn. The rise of deepfake technology has turned digital abuse into a high-tech nightmare, one that’s ruining lives at an industrial scale. “So many people don’t understand how damaging this is,” she says. “It’s not just some niche internet problem. It’s reshaping society in a way that’s dangerous and cruel.”
She regularly hears from parents whose children have been targeted by AI-generated fake nudes. “It’s the same humiliation,” she says. “The same violation. Just because it’s fake doesn’t mean it doesn’t wreck lives.”
The Government’s Slow March Against Deepfakes
The UK government has made some noise about tackling this crisis. In 2023, the then-Conservative government passed the Online Safety Act, forcing social media giants to take some responsibility for harmful content. But as of January 2025, Labour’s Technology Secretary Peter Kyle admits the current laws are still “very uneven” and “unsatisfactory.”
Earlier this month, Home Secretary Yvette Cooper announced plans to make the UK the first country in the world where simply owning AI tools used to create child sexual abuse images will be a crime—punishable by up to five years in prison. A step in the right direction, sure, but for Harrison and countless other victims, it’s too little, too late. The damage has been done.
The Fight Continues
Georgia Harrison isn’t waiting around for bureaucracy to catch up. She’s in the trenches, fighting the war against digital predators, exposing the ecosystem that lets them thrive. She’s turned her trauma into a battle cry—one that echoes through every victim who’s been stripped of their dignity for clicks, cash, and cruelty.
The war isn’t over. But Georgia Harrison is making damn sure it won’t be ignored.
