In 2020, Georgia's then-boyfriend, Stephen Bear, secretly uploaded a video of them being intimate to OnlyFans.

After serving 11 months in jail, the reality TV star was released earlier this year.

Georgia has been determined to move forward and recover from the shocking incident so she joined All Stars and tried her best to be herself again.

In the heart rate challenge, Georgia strutted towards the boys, blew rose petals at them from her hand and then strutted away.

More on Georgia Harrison

On Olivia's podcast, Georgia explained why she didn't fully immerse herself in the challenge like the other contestants.

She said: "I think there were always going to be certain steps along this journey that were going to be harder for me to handle this time because of what I've been through.

"I feel like because so many people got to see me in a sexually vulnerable state without my permission, I just feel like they've seen enough of my sexual side.

"And if I was to be that way, I know for a fact I would get judged for it, left, right and centre. Like, I get judged if I put up a picture in a bikini saying, you know, oh, she's happy to be seen like that, but she's not happy to be seen in this video.

"And it's ridiculous but unfortunately, it’s my reality now and the show was so understanding and so aware of that. They were like, look, this is completely up to you and we are happy for you to handle this however you want to."

Georgia added: "All the girls were practicing their dancing - they didn't hold back - and I almost felt left out because I just thought, oh, why do I have to have things different?

"And then in the end I thought I'm just going to do it.  I'm going to do a sexy strut, in my own way, and then I'm just going to walk back inside because I'm not letting this thing that happened to me, completely hold me back from other aspects of myself.

"I didn't dance on any of the guys and I didn't do what a lot of the other girls done, but I still managed to get involved in it and yeah, I think it was really important."

On why she went back on the show, Georgia said: "Honestly, I genuinely really did hope that I would meet someone, find love.

"Obviously, it's good for your career, I'm not going to lie, but it was just a really,  really fun experience for me the first time round, so I thought, get away, get in a bikini, have some time, having a laugh.

"But I definitely didn’t think I’d be leaving the villa with Anton - my head was in a very different place because of things that had happened on the outside world  before going in there, so I think I had expectations which weren't realistic.

"I also felt like, with me and Anton, we were a little bit different as people but I think as time goes on like we've actually got so many more similarities than I realised."
