Fear began skating in 2004 in London.[7] She competed in ladies' singles and ice dance simultaneously throughout her youth; she also has experience competing in solo dance.[2] Fear trains under Karen Quinn and Alan Abretti at the Alexandria Palace Ice Rink in London during the school year and splits the remainder of her training time with Romain Haguenauer in Montreal, Canada. She spends summers at the Toronto Cricket, Skating and Curling Club in Toronto, Canada.[2]

Fear competed four seasons with Jack Osman beginning in 2013–14.[8] Fear/Osman split following the 2016–17 ISU Junior Grand Prix and she teamed up with Elliot Verburg later that season. Fear/Verburg won the 2017 British junior national title three months into their partnership.[3] They finished 15th at the 2017 World Junior Championships. Fear/Verburg split after one season together, after she began outgrowing him.[5][2]

Fear teamed up with Canadian skater George Waddell in May 2017; their families were already acquainted and the partnership tryout was initiated by coach Romain Haguenauer.[5]

Fear/Waddell made their international debut at the 2017 Lake Placid Ice Dance International, finishing sixth. They finished seventh and tenth at their Junior Grand Prix assignments in Brisbane, Australia and Minsk, Belarus, respectively. Fear/Waddell won their first international title at the 2017 Leo Scheu Memorial.

Fear/Waddell won the 2018 British junior national title by over 20 points ahead of Emily Rose Brown / James Hernandez and Natalia Paillu Neves / Frank Roselli. At the 2020 World Junior Championships, they finished 21st, narrowly missing qualification to the free dance segment.

Fear/Waddell opened the season with a pair of eighth-place finishes on the 2019–20 ISU Junior Grand Prix in Lake Placid, New York, United States and Gdańsk, Poland. They won the junior titles at the Mezzaluna Cup and the Pavel Roman Memorial.

Fear/Waddell won silver at the 2020 British Championships, finishing around four points behind Brown / Hernandez. As a result, they missed the World Junior Championships for the first time in their partnership.

Fear/Waddell made their senior international debut at the 2020 CS Nebelhorn Trophy, which, due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, was attended only by European skaters.[9] They won the silver medal.[10] Attending a second Challenger, the 2020 CS Budapest Trophy, they won the bronze medal.[11] With the British Championships cancelled as a result of the pandemic, Fear/Waddell were named to the British team for the 2021 European Championships, alongside Fear's older sister Lilah.[12] The competition was cancelled on 10 December 2020.[13]
