The real “Martha” from Baby Reindeer is claiming she “was set up” in her Thursday interview with Piers Morgan.
Fiona Harvey, who claims to be the inspiration for Richard Gadd’s alleged stalker in the hit Netflix Netflix series, sat down with Morgan for what the TV host called a “World Exclusive” interview.
During the interview, Harvey told Morgan how internet sleuths tracked her down and and that she has received online death threats because of the series.

In the Netflix limited series that debuted on April 11, Gadd tells a fictionalized version of his harrowing tale as Donny Dunn, a struggling comedian and bartender who is stalked by a woman he calls “Martha” (Jessica Gunning) after he shows the lonely woman a bit of kindness at the pub he works at.
Baby Reindeer is based on Gadd’s 2019 one-man stage show in the UK. Martha is said to have sent Gadd more than 41,000 emails and left 350 hours of voicemails over four-plus years.
Morgan asked Harvey about the emails, and she said she only sent a few, along with a few text messages and about 18 tweets.
