How to add a border to an image inside an SVG circle

I am animating a stroke around a circle using GSAP. Here's a Codepen.

What I want to do is have spacing between the outer pink and (what should be) the inner circular image, like this:

enter image description here

Here's my SVG code:

      <svg id='svg1' width='48' height='48' viewBox='0 0 48 48'>
        <defs>
          <clipPath id='circleView'>
            <circle cx='24' cy='24' r='22' fill='none' stroke='#FF62E1' strokeWidth='2' />
          </clipPath>
        </defs>
        <image
          width='100%'
          height='100%'
          xlinkHref={'https://source.unsplash.com/random'}
          clipPath='url(#circleView)'
          />
        <circle
          cx='24'
          cy='24'
          r='22'
          fill='none'
          stroke='#FF62E1'
          strokeWidth='2'
          strokeDasharray='100.48'
          strokeDashoffset='100.48'
          // @ts-ignore
          ref={(circle) => { this.circle = circle }} >
          >
        </circle>
      </svg>

I have played around with filter and using multiple circles to create the effect, but to no avail.

Any ideas on how to achieve this?

You could change the radius on your clipPath circle to be a little bit less than the other circle and use a square image so it fits perfectly.

render() {
  return (
    <svg id='svg1'  viewBox='0 0 48 48'>
      <defs>
        <clipPath id='circleView'>
          <circle cx='24' cy='24' r='18' fill='none' stroke='#FF62E1' strokeWidth='2' />
        </clipPath>
      </defs>
      <image
        x="0"
        y="0"
        width='48'
        height='48'
        xlinkHref={'https://source.unsplash.com/random/1500x1500/'}
        clipPath='url(#circleView)'
      />
      <circle
        cx='24'
        cy='24'
        r='22'
        fill='none'
        stroke='#FF62E1'
        strokeWidth='2'
        // @ts-ignore
        ref={(circle) => { this.circle = circle }} >
      </circle>
    </svg>
    )
  }
}

Codepen

This option leaves a transparent gap where the background can be seen, so may or may not be exactly what you want. The alternative is to create another circle with a stroke but no fill on top with a different radius again.
