Sex offender Stephen Bear, 35, reveals he has married Brazilian girlfriend Miami, 18, as he shares cringeworthy posts - a year after his prison stint for Georgia Harrison revenge porn scandal
The convicted sex offender announced the news in a series of Instagram posts on Friday featuring cringeworthy videos of the reality star serenading his new wife.
Bear was filmed singing Frankie Valli's Can't Take My Eyes Off You as he spun Miami around on the dancefloor.
The Celebrity Big Brother winner wore a pink suit for the ceremony, while his new wife opted for a a low cut white lace bridal gown.
Bear - who boasted in January that he had relocated to Brazil to live with Miami - captioned the post: 'MY WEDDING. MR AND MRS BEAR.'
The ceremony comes 18 months after he was released from HMP Brixton last January, where he was sentenced to 21 months imprisonment for sharing a sex tape of his Love Island ex-girlfriend Georgia Harrison.

Since being freed after serving half of his sentence, he now makes a living as an adult content creator on X-rated subscription site OnlyFans, selling explicit videos of himself for $20 each.
In his posts, Bear also shared photographs of the couple's wedding cake - which featured figurines of the newlyweds - and the pair's gaudy wedding rings.
They didn't appear to have many guests at the reception, with the camera panning around a near-empty hall.
For the few that were in attendance, a barman was on hand to make cocktails while there was a small DJ booth in the corner.
It is not known exactly when the couple met, but in January, Bear revealed he had relocated to Brazil with his new girlfriend, boasting: 'The police can't catch me now.'
In a grim video shared from the beach, he bragged: 'Life's good. I thought I'd come on here guys and say I love you all, simple as that. I love you all.
'Stay true, because this year I'm fully active, I'm off licence. The police, they could still be after me, but I'm in Brazil. They can't catch me now. Catch me if you can.'
Swigging a beer, he added: 'I'm just chilling out, licence is finished, police is finished. I can be completely left alone, ready to enjoy my life now. All my conditions are just lifted. Now I can post on social media, that was the main condition, watch this space.'
Bear also boasted about being on the beach in Brazil with his much younger girlfriend at 3.40pm in the afternoon.

Georgia is currently expecting her first child with boyfriend Jack Stacey (pictured) and is set to become the first Love Island star to be awarded an MBE for her campaigning efforts on tackling violence against women and girls
Panning the camera around to his girlfriend, he said: 'I'm in Brazil, I don't know if you've heard. This is my 18-year-old Latina girlfriend, say hello baby.
'We just chilling, I got eight music videos I got to shoot while im in Brazil. Thinking of looking at some property while I'm over here.'
Blowing a kiss to the camera, he added: 'As they say in Brazil, te amo, ciao. That means I love you, goodbye.'
While Bear starts married life, his ex Georgia is currently expecting her first child with boyfriend Jack Stacey following a 10-month whirlwind romance.
She is also set to become the first Love Island star to be awarded an MBE for her campaigning efforts on tackling violence against women and girls.
In March, Bear caused yet more outrage after setting up what appears to be an internet 'scam' to raise funds towards an implausible 30 metre high statue tribute in his honour.
While he no longer boasts the same amount of fans he had in his reality star heyday, the former Celebrity Big Brother winner still has 193,000 Instagram followers, where he encourages fans to subscribe to his podcast and various other outlets.
Bear - who claims to be a millionaire - shocked followers when he begged them to donate to a GoFundMe campaign for the implausible task of building the statue - which he claimed would rival Brazil's famed Christ The Redeemer.
He claimed to 'be a man of God' and said God had told him that he needed to 'bring luck' to the people of Brazil - where he is currently living with his girlfriend.
On his fundraising page, he penned: 'Hi, my name is Stephen Bear. I have been chosen from God to bring you good luck and positive energy.
'I am looking to build a statue in Brazil named 'Christ The Bear' I want Christ the Redeemer to have a twin brother.
He claimed to 'be a man of God' and said God had told him that he needed to 'bring luck' to the people of Brazil - where he is currently living with his girlfriend
At the time of reporting, Bear had raised £20 of his £7,500 goal from three donations, one of them being himself after kicking off the fundraising with £5, and shocking his followers
'The statue I would like to build would be the exact same size and weight as Christ the Redeemer. I would find it disrespectful for my statue to be exactly the same, so my statue of 'Christ the Bear' would be made in a gold colour.
'Not real solid gold as that material would be too hot to touch in the Brazil climate. Everyone who would come to visit my statue in Brazil would get good luck.
'I would also be a tourist attraction for everyone around the world so I would be good for the economy. The local people will help construct 'Christ the Bear' so I will also create jobs.
'Donate what you can. As you know I am a man of the people so join me on my project to save the world. Stay cool baby.'
At the time of reporting, Bear had raised £20 of his £7,500 goal from three donations, one of them being himself after kicking off the fundraising with £5.
His followers were left in shock at the scheme, commenting on Instagram: 'You have hit rock bottom. Good'; 'Didn't you just win millions? Why do people need to fund this if you're so rich? Another day another scheme.';
'Bear you're playing a dangerous game brother you're good ppl but Jesus is a stretch ppl don't play about that'; 'Ain't nobody going to be investing in this you mug'.
While it seems impossible that even with funds Bear could erect a 30 metre high statue in Brazil, it is not clear if the fundraiser violates GoFundMe's rules.
Their policy states 'it is not permitted to lie or intentionally deceive donors on GoFundMe for financial or personal gain.'
MailOnline contacted GoFundMe and Bear's representatives for comment.
As well as causing outrage with his fundraising efforts, Bear also shocked when he mocked his revenge porn trial with Love Island star ex, Georgia Harrison
He continued: 'So my opinion on revenge porn...' before launching into a pretend mimed rant but not speaking aloud, leaving his followers disgusted
As well as causing outrage with his fundraising efforts, Bear also shocked when he mocked his revenge porn trial with Love Island star ex, Harrison.
In a YouTube video, Bear was answering questions from fans, with one being his opinion on revenge porn.
Imitating a cat meowing, Bear laughed: 'woo, spicy! We finally got a really juicy question, get your popcorn ready it's going to be a banger.'
He continued: 'So my opinion on revenge porn...' before launching into a pretend mimed rant but not speaking aloud.
In 2023, Bear, from Loughton, Essex, was jailed after a jury found him guilty of voyeurism and disclosing private, sexual photographs and films.
He was also ordered to pay the £22,305 that prosecutors estimated that he earned from illegally sharing the footage on OnlyFans.
Harrison, who waived her right to anonymity as she campaigned for stricter laws around revenge porn, told the Proceeds of Crime hearing at the time: 'I had to live in fear that this was going to come out and my family were going to know about it.
'It was just like the worst feeling you can ever possibly imagine. I felt violated, I felt embarrassed - I hated myself for a really long time.'
The criminal trial heard how Harrison and Bear had consensual sex at his home in Loughton but the Love Island star did not know they were being filmed nor consent to the film being shared.
Bear did not show any remorse for his crime, instead making the outlandish claim that his trial was 'fixed'.

EXCLUSIVE Annie Knight and her adult co-star Bonnie Blue locked in nasty feud and vow never to work together again after shocking spray: 'Ultimate betrayal'
Annie Knight and her former co-star Bonnie Blue are locked in a nasty feud after the UK adult content creator blasted the Aussie star in a shocking spray that left her 'blindsided'. The English sex worker, 26, was recently banned from OnlyFans for attempting to upload video footage of an extreme challenge she performed earlier this year. Bonnie was left fuming over the ban, and has since slammed Annie, 27, for not getting booted from the platform for a similar stunt. Now, Annie has hit back and has vowed to never work with her again. 'I was completely blindsided. The week prior I had messaged Bonnie with some advice that I'd heard about Instagram, as we often gave each other advice and tried to help each other out,' she told Daily Mail Australia. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, . 'A few days later, I went on Instagram and saw her slamming me in a video clip.' 'It was especially hurtful because it was in reference to my ongoing health issues, which she had been privy to and seen me cry about for months on my close friends story,' she continued. The 'health issues' Annie referenced was her recent visit to hospital due to a flare up from her endometriosis following a challenge which saw her sleep with 583 men in six hours. Annie went on to say she reached out to Bonnie after seeing the clips, which she considered a 'betrayal' to their friendship. 'I did reach out to Bonnie after I saw the video clips, and was not met with an apology or a valid explanation for someone who I considered a good friend,' she said. 'And then since I had messaged her, I continued to see more and more statements from her trying to tear down my career essentially which was incredibly shocking and hurtful. 'That is something I would never consider doing to anyone especially not someone who had been so supportive, as I had been of her.' Annie and Bonnie made headlines last year when they filmed X-rated content together in Fiji during Schoolies Week. Since then, Annie revealed they have kept in touch and even planned to work together again early next year—making Bonnie's recent comments about her even more shocking. 'I don't think there is anything I could hear that would fix [the friendship] at this point. It's a betrayal. I can't look past or move on from [it],' Annie said. 'The comments insinuating that she was the first person to do challenges were especially hurtful as she knows that the challenges originated from my content back in 2023 and I never ever publicly (or privately for that fact) mentioned that she had copied me. 'I chose to support her and help her. So to see her telling the world that I copied her was so confusing and I felt like she was trying to rob me of my success.' Annie went on to say she and Bonnie are officially done, adding she can't 'see herself working with her in the future'. 'I never would wish ill upon anyone so I truly wish Bonnie nothing but the best,' she said. 'I hope she can realise that she lost a good friend and someone that supported her, as there aren't many.' Bonnie kicked off the feud between her and Annie last week during an interview with Daily Star, in which she lashed out at OnlyFans for banning her over a 'breach of Terms and Service'. The UK content creator claimed she was 'singled out' because the company became 'scared' over the dozens of controversial headlines Bonnie has generated. Her ban from the site appeared to first be linked to an extreme stunt which saw Bonnie sleep with over 1,000 men in 24 hours. 'Extreme challenge content is not available on OnlyFans and is not permitted under our Acceptable Use Policy and Terms of Service,' an OnlyFans spokesperson said. 'Any breach of our Terms of Service results in content or account deactivation.' However, Bonnie did not accept this explanation as reasonable and went on to point '10 creators' who upload similar content and have not been banned. 'I have sent an email from my lawyer to OF and highlighted over 10 creators breaking their rules,' she said. 'One recently said she'd slept with 583 people in six hours and then vlogged her whole hospital journey saying she's been left with internal bleeding. 'But it's still on the platform and OF has since put her on the home page. It just shows how much I was singled out.' Annie made headlines in May when she was admitted to hospital following her 583 man challenge. She shared a video from her hospital bed after rushing in to be treated for cramps and excessive bleeding just days after taking part in the extreme video. She said the issue stems from her pre-existing endometriosis, which she said had been triggered by stress. 'On Sunday everything was all good, but the next day I had a lot of bleeding that I shouldn't really have because I'm on contraception and I was a little bit worried about it but decided I would wait it out and see how it goes,' she told Perth Now. 'Then it turned into really bad cramps and pains, then I started to get a bit worried and decided to take myself to hospital.' She added her doctors were at first concerned the bleeding and pain was a result of her intense challenge, but later ruled it out. 'We ran a bunch of tests all day, then eventually it was my endometriosis had been exasperated by mostly stress and not so much the physical challenge that I did on Sunday,' she said. Endometriosis occurs when cells in the lining of the uterus are found elsewhere in the body. Each month, these cells react in the same way as those in the uterus; building up, breaking down and bleeding. Yet, the blood has no way to escape the body. Symptoms include pain, heavy periods and fatigue, as well as a higher risk of infertility, and bowel and bladder problems. Its cause is unknown but may be genetic, related to problems with the immune system or exposure to chemicals. Treatment focuses on pain relief and improving quality of life, which may include surgery or hormone treatment.

Lleyton Hewitt's warning to daughter Mia's boyfriend amid young couple's rock'n'roll lifestyle as 'Beckham-style feud is brewing behind the scenes'
Lleyton Hewitt reportedly has concerns about the fast and loose lifestyle his eldest daughter Mia leads with her rock'n'roll boyfriend, Vanda Erich. The 19-year-old musician and her Liquid Zoo frontman partner were first romantically linked in May last year when they were seen going for lunch in Surry Hills. They are now often seen living wild and free, with sources claiming tennis champion Lleyton, 44, fears Mia is being led astray, according to Woman's Day. 'Lleyton is just like any dad out there and is super protective, especially of his girls. He is very much serving up the tough dad act right now,' an insider said. 'He wants Mia to be happy but he thinks she's still too young to be getting into any kind of serious relationship.' From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. The publication went on to claim there are signs a 'Beckham-style feud is brewing behind the scenes'. The former Wimbledon star was reportedly unimpressed with images that emerged last year of Mia and Vanda smoking and acting up for cameras. He is said to want Mia to experiment and enjoy life, but not at the cost of a healthy lifestyle and quality time with the family. 'Living her dreams is important but so is maintaining her relationship with her family,' the source said. Notably, Mia is the only member of the Hewitt family who follows Vanda on social media. Not even her younger brother Cruz can be found in Vanda's follow list, despite the singer following the 16-year-old's Instagram account. Mia and Vanda have frequently been spotted spending time together at the beach and with their friends. In September last year, the rising star, often dubbed a 'nepo baby', performed her first gig with her band Father's Favourite. They are now often seen living wild and free, with sources claiming tennis champion Lleyton fears Mia is being led astray. Pictured with his wife Bec Hewitt Mia, the daughter of Lleyton and his Home and Away star wife Bec, looked stylish in a tiny white skirt and black top as she wowed the crowd at a brewery in Sydney. Her band's Instagram page describes the group as a 'bohemian folk rock duo'. Mia was earlier seen during an outing with a group of friends in Sydney's Rose Bay as they stepped out at Rose Bay House for a meal. The Father's Favourite folk singer shocked onlookers as she was seen smoking during the outing. Her rock star boyfriend Vanda, the lead singer of the band Liquid Zoo, also acted up for the cameras as he was seen wearing shades and swearing while the group laughed. The duo were also joined by one of Vanda's Liquid Zoo bandmates as they all got out of Mia's car together and headed for a bite to eat. Mia's parents, Lleyton and Bec, met on the tennis court for a charity game at the Starlight Cup back in 1999. The couple didn't reconnect until a few years later and finally met up in person in 2005, before getting engaged after a whirlwind romance that lasted six weeks. Grand Slam champion Lleyton married actress Bec 18 years ago in a romantic ceremony at the Sydney Opera House. As well as singer Mia, they also share another daughter, Ava, 14, and son Cruz.

Ben Affleck emerges after ex Jennifer Lopez released her heartbreak song Wreckage of You about their divorce
Just a few days after his ex Jennifer Lopez dropped a new song about their tumultuous relationship, Ben Affleck was spotted out for the first time. Lopez debuted a new song called Wreckage of You during an exclusive listening party for 30 lucky fans in Los Angeles last week. The 55-year-old singer played six new tracks - five upbeat tracks dubbed Up All Night, Regular, Free, Save Me Tonight and Birthday - and a ballad dubbed Wreckage of You, which reports reveal the latter was about the aftermath of her second marriage to Affleck. While Affleck has yet to publicly respond in regards to the new song, he was spotted having dinner with a friend at the West Hollywood hotspot Steak 48 on Monday. The actor was spotted with a friend at the establishment, where they dined for over two hours. He was seen wearing a white button-up dress shirt, dark blue jeans and brown boots for the dinner outing, while carrying a jacket. During the exclusive fan event last week, Lopez revealed that she co-wrote and recorded the song two weeks ago, via US Weekly. One fan in attendance - Edgardo Luis Rivera - revealed, 'She said she was lying in bed after a long day of tour rehearsals when the idea of the song came to her.' 'She mentioned how last year was a very difficult time for her both personally and professionally. She had to cancel her tour and really focus on herself,' the fan added. 'Fast-forward to one year later, and she feels better and stronger than ever, so she wanted to write a song about coming out of a bad situation much stronger,' he said. He said that she, 'kept thinking of the word "wreck" because it means destruction, but she wasn't destroyed,' adding one of the songs lyrics are, 'I'm stronger after the wreckage of you.' Another unnamed fan in attendance added Wreckage of You was a, 'very emotional, empowering song about walking away from a relationship and coming out a stronger person.' The exes are still trying to sell their $60 million marital home that they bought in May 2023, nearly a year after tying the knot for a second time. They separated for a second time in April 2024, with Lopez filing for divorce in August 2024. The exes are still trying to sell their $60 million marital home that they bought in May 2023, nearly a year after tying the knot for a second time. While the divorce was finalized this February, they have still failed to sell the home, which they initially listed for $68 million in July 2024. They dropped the price to their break-even point at $60 million after failing to find a buyer, but the home was recently taken off the market entirely. An i nsider exclusively told the Daily Mail, 'Ben and JLo slashed the price on their Beverly Hills mansion for $8 million less than they paid for it, but this is nothing to Ben.' 'He really just wants this to be sold so that he can cut the final cord that keeps him and Jennifer intertwined,' it was added.
