I was stalked by ‘real Baby Reindeer’ Fiona Harvey for 5 years – now I’m scared she’ll come for me again, says MP’s wife

1. She’s only going to be getting more and more coverage, sadly. It’s the way the media in this country is. Exploitation over empathy.

2. Headline is stupid. Baby Reindeer refers to Richard Gadd not Fiona

3. They tell us to never judge a book by its cover but unfortunately one look at this woman confirms everything.

4. She’s a walking example of a broken mental health system. That’s where the outrage should be. That said, hard to have sympathy for her given the bile she spews online. Oh yeah, and maybe put more focus on the guy who actually raped Gadd ?

5. This is only going to end very badly. Someone with a very serious mental illness is being given attention and acknowledgement for said sickness. When the attention dries up, what do they do to get that back?

6. I’m confused about all this..the stalker (portrayed in Baby Raindeer) had previous convictions for harassment, and with the harassment of Gadd, was sentenced again for harrasment.

   But Fiona Harvey is stating she has no convictions.

   So, either Gadd made up the convictions or Harvey is not being truthful, (If Harvey has a conviction, it would be a public record somewhere…) or she is not the real ‘stalker’ from the show?

7. I honestly don’t see why there’s any sympathy for her, it’s a clear case of societal sexism once again. If the shoe was on the other foot and an older man stalked a young girl and did everything she did to him, then went on national tv and pretty much said she deserved it, would we have the same level of awww leave him alone he’s mentally ill. Fuck that, weirdo needs locking up

8. What a world. We had celebrity stalkers and now we have *celebrity stalkers.*

9. Bro, if you have a stalker, don’t call the fucking police, call the mental health crisis team. There the fucking ones that fix your problems
