‘Martha’ from ‘Baby Reindeer’ denies parts of series in interview: Was she the victim?

“Baby Reindeer” is a Netflix series that shows how scary bullying can be, an experience that series creator Richard Gadd had in real life. Introducing himself in the episodes as Donny Dunn, people learned about his creepy history with Martha, a woman who followed him day and night for 4.5 years.

The details provided on the show make it clear that Martha sent all kinds of messages to Donnie. Although careful not to reveal the woman’s true identity, journalist Piers Morgan identified her as Fiona Harvey and interviewed her.

Unsurprisingly, her views sparked controversy on social media. Below, we present some of the most controversial.

Richard Gadd is psychotic

When shown a clip from a recent interview with Jessica Gunning, who brought Martha to life in “Reindeer Baby”, Fiona asserted that the actress and Gadd were “abusing” her in the media and “milking” the story for money, but when the lawyer was asked what he thought of the creator of the show, i.e. the person he allegedly harassed, he replied:

“I think he’s psychotic, he’s been obsessed with me since day one and he’s definitely a misogynist.”

Fiona never watched Baby Reindeer

Morgan asked Fiona if she had seen the show after it premiered, to which she replied no, stating that she had no interest in the subject matter.

“Absolutely. I’ve heard about the court scene and the prison sentences and all that stuff… I haven’t seen any of that. It’s already taken up enough of my life. I find it quite obscene. ‘I find it appalling, misogynistic.’

Didn’t Richard offer you a cup of tea when you met?

On the other hand, she was asked if it was true that Gadd had offered her a free cup of tea after entering the pub where she worked, and she replied:

“No, that’s not right. He didn’t offer me a cup of tea…I was expecting a meal with a shot of lemonade and I was very, very hungry. I’m diabetic, so I’m very hungry. So that’s true.”

Was Gand spying on Fiona in her house?

The series shows how Donnie follows Martha to her house and spies on her for a few minutes until he is discovered, but according to Fiona this did not happen in real life.

“Wrong… I didn’t see it in my house. I think it would have been impossible to look out a window… That emphatically did not happen.”

How many emails and tweets did Fiona send to Gadd?

In “Baby Reindeer” it is highlighted that Martha sent Donny 41 thousand emails, 350 hours of voicemails, 744 tweets, 48 ​​Facebook messages and 106 letters. However, Fiona comments that this was made up, since she only sent him about 10 emails and 18 tweets when they were friendly.

Fiona was never in jail

The final episodes of ‘Baby Reindeer’ show Martha receiving a warning from the police due to her interactions with Donnie. When she finally decides to press charges against him, a trial is held to convict the woman he was harassing. Fiona emphasizes that she has never actually been jailed or faced any charges against her.

“It’s completely false and very career damaging. I want to disprove it. I’m not a bully. It’s just complete nonsense.”

Did Fiona fall in love with Gand in real life?

Piers Morgan asked shocking questions that left everyone stunned, and one of the most exciting was whether she was in love with Gadd, as suggested in the series “Baby Reindeer”. At this question, Fiona responded with a look of disgust and wondered if it was a serious question. She then stated that no, she had never felt that kind of feeling for him.

Fiona has asked Gadd to leave her alone and is going to sue him

Near the end of the interview, Fiona made two important points. The first is that she asked Gand to leave her alone and also that she will file a lawsuit against him and Netflix for defamation and moral damages.

“Leave me alone, please, get a life, get a proper job. I’m horrified at what you’ve done.”
