I was homeless, living in my car and washing in hotels before fame reveals Love Island All Stars’ Georgia Harrison
LOVE Island All Stars contestant Georgia Harrison has opened up on her "scary" past prior to fame which saw her homeless and washing in hotel bathrooms.
The influencer, 29, who has been confirmed in the official cast line-up for the ITV2 series, has turned her life around since a rough patch living in Marbella.
Georgia first starred in Love Island's third season but is attempting to find love in the villa second time around.
She has told how the bar is "low" for the male contestants to compete with her exes - who include reality TV star Stephen Bear, 33 - who was sentenced to 21 months in jail for uploading a sex tape with ex Georgia without her permission.
Yet while she might live a glam life on Instagram, Georgia's pre-fame reality was very different.
She previously exclusively told The Sun how she was living in Spain, keeping her belongings in a car.

Georgia said: "I was living in Marbella with a friend and this guy who would have really crazy parties with strangers coming in and out of our room in the night. It was scary.
"In the end after a massive argument we had to leave, but we had just given him a whole month's rent.
"We didn't have enough money to live somewhere else, so we literally moved into my car.
"We had to wash in a nearby hotel. At one point security even caught us and said 'we know you don't stay here' and they chased us out, it was crazy."
Georgia - who is tipped for a career as an MP after her dedicated campaigning around revenge porn - added: "I would go to work in a club all night, it was so stressful.
"One time I came back to the car to sleep and it had been towed with everything we owned inside.
"That's the point I was at, but I turned my whole life around within a year."
Her major turning point came after she read The Secret - a best-selling 2006 self-help book by Rhonda Byrne.
Georgia has now vowed to show off her new boobs on the All Stars version.
She also told the "real reason" she has signed up for the spin-off, this being because she will be a villa OG and not a bombshell like before.
Georgia explained: “The last time I went in as a bombshell and I always wondered if I would have found love if I’d gone in a bit earlier. When I heard about Love Island: All Stars, I thought it was meant to be.”
The star continued: “As much as this years been amazing, it’s been heavy at times and pretty serious with all of my campaigning work.

“This is the last year of my 20’s so I want to go in the Villa and have some fun and hopefully meet someone that I can fall in love with.
"I’m lucky in the sense that I’ve got everything in my life that I could possibly wish for, apart from love.”
