Jessica Gunning looking amazed as Martha Scott in Baby Reindeer

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT In her first public interview, the alleged real-life "Martha," Fiona Harvey, calls out inaccuracies in Netflix's Baby Reindeer. The series was created by Richard Gadd and inspired by his experience as a survivor of stalking and abuse.

In the interview, Harvey revealed that she felt forced to come out due to receiving harassment and threats after she was outed on social media. She denied watching the show, as it had already "taken over enough" of her life. According to Harvey, she only met Gadd at the bar where he worked 3 or 4 times, exchanged a few e-mails with him, and gave him the "Baby Reindeer" nickname.

Another complication with the Baby Reindeer defamation allegations is that the show never named Harvey or intended to reveal her identity. In fact, Gadd released a statement asking viewers not to speculate on Martha or Darrien's real identities. However, internet sleuths continued circulating Harvey's name far and wide on social media, leading to her coming forward. Usually, defamation occurs when someone makes a false statement about an individual, which causes harm to their reputation.
