A source claimed he is set to be freed before his birthday on January 20.

Georgia Harrison has demanded abuse cases are given priority in courts
'There will be no hopping back on to social media or rolling straight back into the nearest nightclub when he gets out, he says he just wants to get back to east London and his family.'
The source said 'time will tell' if he has 'changed'.
Bear was jailed in March after being convicted of voyeurism, disclosing private, sexual photographs and films with intent to cause distress, and harassment without violence.
According to the Sun, his girlfriend Jessica Smith dumped him in September, after vowing to stand by him while he was in jail. Bear was said to be heartbroken by the split.
Meanwhile, in October Georgia Harrison demanded abuse cases are given priority in courts as she appeared on stage at Labour's conference in Liverpool.
The former star of reality shows The Only Way Is Essex and Love Island spoke of her long wait for justice.
She said it took two years from the day she reported the crime for Bear to be convicted and warned about the impact of long legal processes on victims of other crimes, such as rape and domestic abuse.

The 28-year-old said she now has an 'onslaught' of women reaching out to her for help on social media following her high-profile case.
She also called for 'massive online platforms' to be required to take down sexually explicit content which had been posted without consent.
Speaking on a panel on the main stage of Labour's conference, Ms Harrison said it was 'really important that victims feel they are going to be taken seriously when they're going to the police'.
