Stephen Bear is working behind bars as a gym orderly earning little over £1 a day, weeks after being ordered to pay £200,000 in damages to his ex-girlfriend Georgia Harrison
Shamed Stephen Bear is earning less than a tenner a week helping out at a prison gym, it has been claimed.
The former reality star, 33, has been transferred to HMP Brixton, south of London, where he now works as an orderly. Bear has been allowed to earn while inside, but is making just £8 a week, according to reports.
His job spec demands he clean the facilities while keeping track of fellow prisoners who use the equipment, teaching them how to operate weights and the machines. It’s a prison pay rise after Bear served part of his sentence at HMP Chelmsford in Essex, where he earned just £3-a-week packing tea and coffee.
The opportunity to earn comes after he was ordered to pay £200,000 in damages to ex-girlfriend Georgia Harrison. The disgraced Celebrity Big Brother contestant, currently serving a 21 month sentence, was told to hand over the the six figure sum â the highest ever awarded in an image abuse case â at his sentencing in March.
