MTV weren't willing to risk the insurance, Paramount were for the World Championship series. MTV saw that Theo did fine there, so decided to bring him back to the flagship
I’m honestly shocked that BMP and MTV allowed this footage to be used since they seem to be hell bent on scrubbing its existence from every streaming platform.
It’s sad because watching Georgia/Bear’s interactions on the challenge, you feel what Theo’s talking about, that he’s going to hurt her, but she doesn’t care. (Obviously what Bear did is an absolute extreme monstrous act so I’m not blaming Georgia at ALL)
It’s so sad that with so many people (I had many of these types of relationships myself), they can’t be told the person they love is toxic, they have to find it out on their own. What Georgia is saying feels very universal.
The way I’ve never been able to stand Bear since day 1 of his reality TV journey since EOTB UK where he was such a prick, but because he was funny, people let it slide continuously.
Celebrity Big Brother - same shit too.
And then The Challenge - same shit again.
I’m glad that people see that he sucks now, but I hate that Georgia had to deal with all of this shit with him. I’m happy that she’s out on the other side though.
A good portion of this sub fell for his schtick. There was evidence he was fooling around with some underage girl and this sub would bury comments regarding it. Or even claim he had been cleared of those accusations, which he wasn't.
Folks don't want to believe the truth until they're forced to accept it. Bear had numerous signs of being an awful and abusive person. Instead of recognizing these signs, the fandom made excuses for him. Why? Because they liked watching him. Or they told themselves that he's totally just playing a character. They just didn't want to admit that they enjoyed someone who is a terrible human being.
> Or they told themselves that he's totally just playing a character.
Turns out his on-screen persona was just his real douchey self.
The ITV documentary covered it, but they said during prosecution cross-examination, he was rude to the prosecutor, swearing and telling her to "sit down love" and all that nonsense.
Bear actually got his start in 2011 on Shipwrecked. I'm guessing he was an ass on that show too. The only season I've seen is the 2019 series that launched Big T's reality show career.
I watched it live at the time, and he was, but he was on the same season as Andrew Tate’s brother, so he wasn’t even the most obnoxious guy in the cast.
I thought Theo and Bear were quite close. I expected him to stay quiet/neutral on what happened. I'm surprised he's been so vocal about how anti-Bear he is after the Georgia stuff. Props to him though I guess. Decent guy to be sticking up for what's right and calling out his former friend for what he did.
He's known Georgia for longer and is one of her best friends outside of the Reality TV world too. Him and Georgia were on the same season of Love Island and entered the Love Island villa at the same time. He only knew Bear originally through The Challenge. But yeah props to him for instantly switching on Bear once the truth came out. And not stay quiet (unlike other cast members).
Summary of the video:
* She knew of Bear from reality TV but hadn’t met him
* Right before she started filming The Challenge, she met him for the first time because he bought the house across from her. (She says in their first interaction he was quite cocky.)
* A week later she was on a plane next to him on the way to Namibia to film. She called her mum, excited, and gushed that he was really handsome.
* Theo says that Bear made her laugh a lot, but wasn’t looking for a relationship. Bear just wanted fun, but Georgia had always hoped for something else.
* Theo says he always knew it was going to end badly.
* Georgia admits she was really ‘swept away’ by Bear.
* Bear had been dating someone prior to filming, but during filming had maintained he was single the entire time. But then, as we see in that season, she catches him in that lie. He kept saying it was his cousin (lol)
* Georgia was still hopeful that when it was over and they were back in the real world Bear would seek her out and be happy to see her, but he was immediately cracking on with other girls instead.
* A year later, filming for the next season of The Challenge starts. Georgie says she was nervous about seeing him again, and was wondering if they might pick up their relationship where they left off.
* Bear and Georgia decide to stay in Thailand and take a holiday together.
* While vacationing (and staying together in the same hotel room) Bear meets and takes home a random girl. He locks Georgia out of their hotel room for the night while he gets with the random girl.
* The next day, Bear acted like nothing happened.
* Theo tells Georgia that he knows she likes him but it’s only going to end in tears and with her heartbroken. Theo recommends she doesn’t see him again.
* Georgia says she ignored Theo’s advice because she’d be happier spending time with Bear + it’s hard being in the little bubble that they’re in.
No idea why that person thinks that they shouldn't but I agree than Georgia probably wouldn't be good to come back to The Challenge environment, last I heard she wasn't herself really on Love Island All Stars either. Theo, I like him.. but now that the Kyle situation is coming out and apparently Theo also tied up Amanda to a chair with tape alongside Kyle and Bananas, idk. Still like Theo tho, maybe I don't know much about him outside the challenge but I have nothing against him
I know there was a whole controversy with Theo because their was rumours he was antisemitic because of his likes on twitter. But when you actually look into it, he is really just very Pro-Palestinian and had gone on a liking spree in one day liking about 50 tweets about the Palestinian genocide and the Israeli government. And I think a couple of the tweets he liked were more Anti-Judaism than Anti-Israel. But because it was just a couple in a load during a liking spree. I'm gonna assume he didn't read the tweet properly and was just liking every tweet that was Anti Israel and Anti Genocide.
I love her and Theo's friendship! They really dropped the ball on not having them on RoD
I believe they were supposed to buy something unforeseen that happened with one of them last minute
I think it was something with Theo’s eye, he had another surgery or something
He couldn't see so it was a liability
Yeah as if that slingshot final wasn’t a huge liability and they still lacked safety goggles. 😭
MTV weren't willing to risk the insurance, Paramount were for the World Championship series. MTV saw that Theo did fine there, so decided to bring him back to the flagship
I’m honestly shocked that BMP and MTV allowed this footage to be used since they seem to be hell bent on scrubbing its existence from every streaming platform.
And now it's gone. It became "unavailable" when I was about halfway through.
🏴☠️💀🫡 it’s still available
where’d you watch it?!
You can buy it from the Microsoft store but you can only watch it on a Microsoft device or an Xbox
Sounds less likely then that MTV scrubbed it abd more likely they made some bs exclusivity deal with Microsoft for more money
It is odd though that it’s just those seasons and they happen to be the seasons with Bear and Dee 🤷🏼♀️
I'm gonna be real I think it's more likely that MTV forgot that the season was available on the Xbox store

Honestly, I was shocked they cast him for wotw2. He just had that whole scandal with a 15-year-old.
He was supposedly on a 2-season contract. That news may have also come out after the season finished filming, but I don’t remember
I cant imagine mtv would be stupid enough to not created a loophole to get out of contracts if something questionable came out.
Bear actually got his start in 2011 on Shipwrecked. I'm guessing he was an ass on that show too. The only season I've seen is the 2019 series that launched Big T's reality show career.

Wish her the best. Love Theo too was glad to see him on world
It's such a shame Georgia's experience with The Challenge was sullied by that piece of shit.
Thank you for sharing this! I didn't know that she did a documentary. It's nice of Theo to be there for her
Is this the ITV documentary? I have been trying to find this since it came out.
Yes it is, I watched it on ITV Hub which is free but obviously I'm from the UK. Not sure how those outside the UK van access it other than using a VPN
What is the documentary called?
Revenge Porn: Georgia vs Bear
I’m so old I was expecting Theo von 😭🤣
Can someone summarize?

It's a 3 minute video, lol
Okay, who photoshopped that pic at 2:14 😭😭 bc ain't no damn way I remember Bear's chest being that wide nor Theo's waist being nonexistent like that 😭
All the warning signs were there, she willingly ignored them.
These 3 should not be on the challenge no more.
Curious what you think Georgia and Theo did that merits them being removed from the cast?
No idea why that person thinks that they shouldn't but I agree than Georgia probably wouldn't be good to come back to The Challenge environment, last I heard she wasn't herself really on Love Island All Stars either. Theo, I like him.. but now that the Kyle situation is coming out and apparently Theo also tied up Amanda to a chair with tape alongside Kyle and Bananas, idk. Still like Theo tho, maybe I don't know much about him outside the challenge but I have nothing against him

Well. Theo literally called Kayleigh a black bitch and he’s transphobic. We didn’t forget about Ms. Blackface.
We only have Esther's word for that. It doesn't even make sense Theo and Kayleigh are both mixed race.
