The Scottish law graduate didn’t watch the popular series, but she did, however, find the whole thing “obscene.” Starting her conversation with the 59-year-old British journalist, the woman, who was portrayed as an obsessive and dangerous person on one of the most popular Netflix shows, said: “I find it horrifying, misogynistic.” She received death threats as a result of Baby Reindeer, Fiona stated. “People phoning me up. You know, it’s been absolutely horrendous. I wouldn’t give credence to something like that, and it’s not really my kind of drama.”

So, I have inadvertently penned the name of the show.” “I’m not technology wiz kid of the year,” the 58-year-old woman told Piers as he questioned her about the infamous “sent from an iPhone” signature depicted on Baby Reindeer.

Share icon Image credits: Piers Morgan Uncensored “I would love to see Netflix’s evidence for that,” Fiona said after clarifying that she had sent him a “handful” of emails before saying she sent him a total of “10.” The law graduate from the University of Aberdeen admitted tweeting (currently known as X posts) Richard 18 times, sending fewer than ten emails, and sending him one letter but denied messaging him on Facebook. The interviewee denied ever contacting Richard’s parents or staying outside his girlfriend’s house, just wandering around, as the series suggested. “No, I don’t think he had a girlfriend. I think he’s, say, homosexual. But no, I have never been to his house or attacked any girlfriend or anything like that,” Fiona said. In the series, Martha locates Donny’s girlfriend, Keeley (played by Shalom Brune-Franklin), and their home, subsequently intruding into their lives before stationing herself outdoors at a nearby bus stop for days without budging. “I don’t know where he lived,” Piers’ guest said.

Fiona, who was portrayed as Martha, addressed online speculation

In Baby Reindeer, Teri’s transgender identity is highlighted. But the relentless accused pursuer rejected this ever happened in real life. “That’s not very flattering,” Fiona told Piers as he noted her resemblance again to Martha after playing a segment of the series. The Central Belt native affirmed, “I’m not a stalker, I’ve never been to jail, I’ve not got injunctions. And this is just complete nonsense,” as she stressed that she had never been charged with an offense. Fiona claimed neither Netflix nor Richard had contacted her prior to making the show. “They’re milking it for all of what it’s worth,” Fiona said of a clip of Richard being interviewed along with actress Jessica Gunning, who played Martha. “I should’ve never gone in that bar,” Fiona went on to say as she recalled the time she met Richard. Share icon Image credits: piersmorgan The proclaimed non-stalker categorically refuted “smashing up a bar,” sexually assaulting the writer in a canal, and ever going to prison. As the Scottish woman expressed doubt regarding Richard’s sexual assault allegations, which he explicitly portrayed on the show, Piers went on to read Tweets dating back to 2014, where Fiona joked about getting her “curtains hung.” “We were just trying to encourage him for his show,” Fiona explained. Baby Reindeer viewers would remember the Tweets being replicated in the series. “Didn’t think he was a total psychopath who was going to attack me in that way,” Fiona exclaimed.

She appeared in a revealing interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored

Laura previously expressed that Fiona falsely accused both her and her spouse, Labour MP Jimmy Wray, of assaulting their three-year-old boy, who suffers from a rare chromosomal disorder. “Leave me alone please, get a life, get a proper job,” Fiona told Piers after being asked what she would’ve liked to tell Richard. The woman claimed her current boyfriend was a lawyer and that she planned to sue Richard, Netflix, and the Daily Mail. Share icon Image credits: Fiona Harvey “That’s completely untrue,” the alleged stalker responded to all the accusations made against her, including sending thousands of emails and sexually assaulting the 34-year-old comedian. Fiona suggested Richard had probably forged the 105 hand-written letters he alleged to possess, which he claimed she had sent him. The “real Martha” went on to admit that she had “four to six” different email accounts in addition to “four phones.” The woman confessed to not being friends with the writer, adding, “I don’t fancy little boys without jobs.” “He’s making money out of untrue fact, he’s the ultimate misogynist,” Fiona exclaimed as she speculated Richard had made around £3 to 4 million.

She denied sending 44,000 messages and discussed her lack of tech prowess

Share icon Image credits: Netflix Fiona said she would agree to take a lie detector test after Piers challenged her academic past at the University of Aberdeen. “I have to tell white lies when I have to,” the law graduate told the Uncensored host as he explained criminals were good liars. Continuing to deny all allegations made against her, Fiona said that she had phoned Richard not more than six times. Concluding the interview, Fiona said: “I think you should look at the number of articles that Richard Gadd and Jessica the actress have done and how he and Netflix have promoted this. “I think you should look at him saying I’m some sort of mental case and judge for yourselves.” Share icon Image credits: Netflix “Because I can’t change your mind on this, I can just rebut what has been said, you need to make up your own mind. “But my mind is made up, he’s a liar, and my friends say likewise.” Following Richard’s success with his series based on his life, Fiona started garnering attention when her purported Facebook profile surfaced, revealing frequent postings of bizarre statements. On May 2, she threatened legal action against Stephen King in addition to announcing that she was ready to publish her own book. Share icon Image credits: Netflix And last month, she warned about taking legal action against Netlfix, expressing her discontentment to several British media outlets. The drama-thriller recounts Richard’s experience of being stalked by a mentally ill woman while he was a bartender at The Hawley Arms in Camden, London. In the show, the obsessive stalker Martha is portrayed by Jessica Cunning. Given the show’s popularity, reaching number 1 on Netflix charts in over 30 countries, it was just a matter of time before the Internet sleuths collectively discovered the stalker’s real identity. Fiona shares many similarities with Martha’s character: they’re both Scottish, around 20 years older than Gadd, studied law at university, and have a history of stalking.

In an Instagram story shared on April 22, Richard requested that fans not dig deeper into the people who inspired his abusers on the show, including a successful TV writer who sexually assaulted him. “Hi, everyone. People I love, have worked with, and admire (including Sean Foley) are unfairly getting caught up in speculation,” the 34-year-old wrote. “Please don’t speculate on who any of the real-life people could be. That’s not the point of our show. Lots of love, Richard.” The show’s creator isn’t the only one to have raised concerns about viewers’ attempts to uncover the characters’ true identities.

“You’re next Piers,” a viewer warned
