Fans of the hit show Baby Reindeer were shocked and disgusted when they learned that a nightclub had organized a personal appearance with Fiona Harvey, the real-life inspiration behind the character of Martha. The promotional poster advertised a meet and greet, autograph signing, and selfies with the 58-year-old Harvey, along with an inappropriate reference to hanging curtains, a message Martha sends to the character of Donny in the show.
Understandably, fans were outraged that a nightclub would exploit the real-life stalking experience of show creator Richard Gadd for commercial gain. They also raised concerns about Harvey's well-being, especially after her recent interview with Piers Morgan where she expressed feeling "used". Despite pleas from Gadd to protect her anonymity, the internet sleuths were able to uncover the real identity of "Martha" and she was interviewed by Morgan on his show, Uncensored.
In the interview, Harvey repeatedly denied stalking Gadd in real life and described the show as a work of fiction and hyperbole. However, she later stated that she felt "used" by Morgan during the intense questioning about her alleged infatuation with Gadd. The interview has caused controversy and Harvey reportedly only received a small payment for her appearance.
Gadd, on the other hand, has chosen not to comment on the interview and has made it clear that he will never reveal the identities of the real-life people that inspired the characters in Baby Reindeer. He believes that the show exists in a fictional realm, even though it is based on his personal experience. He has previously spoken about not wanting people to try and uncover the real-life counterparts of the characters, stating that he wants to enjoy the world he has created.
The agency has reached out to Kasbah Nightclub for comment on the situation. In the meantime, fans can continue to enjoy the show on Netflix.
