Fiona Harvey backs Mr Bates vs The Post Office against Baby Reindeer in TV Choice Awards
The woman who inspired stalker character Martha in hit TV show Baby Reindeer claims rival show Mr Bates vs The Post Office deserves to win big at this year’s TV Choice awards.
Harvey, a law graduate from Aberdeenshire who admits she knew Gadd when they lived in London, said: “Richard Gadd shouldn’t be winning any awards. Baby Reindeer is up against Mr Bates vs Post Office and that is a good programme.“He’s a disgrace to Scotland because of the lies he’s told. He’s also dragged a professional Scot like me and my name through the mud.
“No doubt Richard Gadd will be also strutting his stuff at these awards and making himself out to be a victim of stalking. But this case is not about stalking. It is about defamation of character.” Harvey says her life was turned upside down after internet sleuths identified her as Baby Reindeer’s real-life Martha. She received death threats and has been inundated with malicious telephone calls and says he is afraid to step out her front door because of the Netflix show which appears to tell the story of Richard Gadd and his stalker as well as his experience at the hands of a theatre producer who rapes him repeatedly. The alleged rapist has not been identified.
“If anyone is raped, my advice to go to the police. They will take samples. They are very discreet. The crown then has the option to prosecute if they think there is a chance of success.
