The woman who says she is the real life ‘stalker’ who the Netflix hit Baby Reindeer is based on is to give her version of events of Piers Morgan’s show.
Scottish lawyer Fiona Harvey will speak to Morgan on her portrayal in the hit black comedy.
Baby Reindeer stars comedian Richard Gadd as Donny while Jessica Gunning plays Martha who in the show stalks him, following him home and staking out the pub where he works.
The character Donny is based on Gadd and his own experiences being stalked and the toll it took on his relationships and career.
Harvey has agreed to share her story to Morgan on his show Uncensored on Thursday evening. There had been huge speculation about the real identity of the stalker dramatised in Baby Reindeer.

The seven-episode series started on April 18 and has become hugely popular.
The show has already had 56.5 million views in just 26 days.
Gadd said of Baby Reindeer previously: “I wanted it to be nuanced. I just remember my idea of stalking in life was so different to what actually happened.
“My idea of what a stalker was, was that they are fundamentally, sort of, psychopathic characters. But it just wasn’t that case. I saw someone very vulnerable, really.”
