Vicky Pattison’s terror as ex boyfriend Stephen Bear threatens to tell-all in Celebrity Big Brother

VICKY Pattison's loathed ex-boyfriend has signed up for Celebrity Big Brother - leaving the Geordie lass on edge.

Gobby Stephen Bear will enter the Elstree reality compound later this summer, and now pals say that Vicky, 28, is worried that the Londoner will reveal all about their tumultuous romance.

A source told The Sun online: "Stephen going in to CBB is going to be an absolute nightmare for Vicky.

"She absolutely despises him - and he's such a wind-up merchant he'll probably delight in spilling the beans on their time together."

Fans of MTV show Ex On The Beach will already be familiar with the handsome 26-year-old.

He featured on the third series of the sunkissed dating show where viewers saw him fall in and out of love with returning singleton Vicky.

He also pursued Megan McKenna while on the show, and tried to sabotage her relationship with her now ex-boyfriend Jordan Davies.

But despite everything, Vicky and Bear dated for four months when they returned to the UK, but it wasn't a fairytale romance.

After their bitter split, she told New! magazine: "He's literally been the most vile, horrendous, snaky, conniving and manipulative person I have ever met.

"I'm truly shocked that I've allowed myself to get so taken in - but there you go. Love is blind, or in my case, blind, deaf, stupid.

"I have never let a man to mug us off as many times as he has. I feel I'm over it."

Stephen - known as Bear - later revealed that his antics on the programme made things between him and Vicky so bad that she ended up blocking him on WhatsApp.

He said: "With me and Vick... she is a nice girl actually, but it just didn't work out.

"We watched Ex On The Beach, and where I'm kissing all the birds before her, she got the hump.

"So every week we'd break up, and after the tenth week, I said, 'You know what babe, you've got to stop shouting at me.' And we broke up.

"We don't really speak anymore. I wish she would unblock me, though, on WhatsApp, so we can maybe talk things out."

There's set to be even more uncomfortable scenes when Ex On The Beach returns next month after The Sun revealed that Charlotte Dawson performs a sex act on Bear.

Adding more pressure on Vicky is knowing that Bear might bump in to her best friend Alex Cannon - who she recently declared she wanted to marry - on his way in to the house.

Alex is currently competing in the 'civilian' Big Brother, but there are rumours that the two shows will have a small overlap and some contestants will be thrown together.

After their bitter split back in October, Bear hinted that Vicky had cheated on him with Alex, who is her co-presenter on Judge Geordie.

He posted a cryptic post to Instagram that read: "Women act like only men cheat... Like they ain't got a phone full of friend zoned guys ready to be the number one draft pick."

She hit back: "Always be careful of what you hear about a woman. Rumours either come from a man that can't have her or a woman who can't compete with her."

A CBB insider added: "Bear is a key signing for the new series.

"He has no problem with manipulating people and situations to get what he wants - and he's sexy.

"Bosses are hoping he'll bring plenty of drama and X-rated antics to the series."

Also set for Celebrity Big Brother are Chloe Mafia, Gogglebox pair Chris Steed and Stephen Webb and Mob Wives star Renee Graziano.
