Stephen Bear has posted a YouTube video that some have said “mocks” his revenge porn arrest.
Stephen posted a video to the site claiming he has been charged with “harassment, exposure, voyeurism and obstructing an officer”.
The reality star, 31, was arrested at Heathrow Airport last week after returning to the UK from Dubai.
Taking to the internet yesterday (January 19), Stephen addressed the incident on his newly launched YouTube account.
Has Stephen Bear been charged?
In the video, the TV personality appears to admit he has been charged with numerous offences.
However, Essex Police insisted nobody has yet been charged in connection with the incident.
In a statement, they said: “A 31-year-old man from Loughton, who was arrested on suspicion of disclosing private sexual images or film without consent with intent to cause distress, voyeurism, harassment and obstructing a police officer, has been released on bail until 10 February.”
In his video, Bear admitted he was unimpressed after being questioned by Essex police.
He denies all allegations.

He told fans: “Where do I [bleeping] start? I’m back from Dubai and I’ve actually got a criminal case over my head. I’ve been charged with some [bleep], man.
“I’ve been charged from the Essex police with harassment, obstructing a police officer, exposure and voyeurism,” he claimed.
What else does Stephen say on YouTube?
Stephen added: “So let’s start with the first one. Harassment doesn’t sound good does it? Exposure. Not too sure what exposure means.
“Obstructing a police officer. What do you reckon I did? Do you reckon I got in his way?”

He went on to claim: “I think voyeurism because I’ve been to Dubai and I’ve gone on a voyage – I’m getting nicked for travelling to Dubai because I’ve been on a voyage.
“Do you blame Captain Cook for sailing the seven seas? No you don’t. So right now I can’t talk about the case.”
He added: “I got questioned twice.”
Stephen went on to claim: “I was in the cell for 14 hours, 15 hours on my birthday.”
What did the public say?
The public were left raging over Stephen’s video.
Some believed Stephen was “mocking” the incident, while others called him out for appearing to break quarantine rules.
On Twitter, one said: “@EssexPoliceUK why are you not out arresting Stephen Bear for breaking lockdown laws?
“There are photos all over the media of him sharing a car with someone he doesn’t live with and driving round London when he should still be in quarantine from Dubai.”
Stephen Bear has been let out on bail… then proceeds to use his phone in his car that he’s NOT meant to be using as he should be self-isolating.
Another added: “Stephen Bear has been let out on bail… then proceeds to use his phone in his car that he’s NOT meant to be using as he should be self-isolating.”
Meanwhile, a fourth complained: “Stephen Bear is absolutely vile.“
What allegedly happened between Stephen and Georgia?
Georgia Harrison, who previously appeared on Love Island, accused him of revenge porn – alleging that he recorded them being intimate on his home CCTV.
However, Stephen denied the claims when Georgia first made them.
According to her, Stephen showed the footage to at least two friends. And she also believes users of messaging platform WhatsApp widely shared the recording.
In addition, she accused Stephen of sharing screenshots from the CCTV recording to his followers on OnlyFans.
However, Stephen claims the woman in the images wasn’t Georgia.
