The gritty real-life drama was inspired by the ordeal suffered by Gadd, 34, who changed his name for the Netflix smash.

The harrowing tale follows barman Donny Dunn as his life falls apart at the hands of an obsessive stalker – played by Jessica Gunning, 38, – after he offers her a cup of tea in a London bar.

The deranged Baby Reindeer maniac bombarded the comic with more than 41,000 emails, 744 tweets, 100 pages of letters and 350 hours of voicemails over a four year reign of terror

And in a fresh series of social media messages ‘the real Martha’ claims Gadd wanted to sleep with her.

Eagle-eyed viewers of the troubling tale will have noticed Martha’s terrible spelling and rogue letters in correspondence sent to Gadd.

In a corrected version, she wrote online: “My boyfriend thinks Gadds is angry that he never freckin got me in the bedsheets.

“His main fantasy was to f*k me.

“He thinks that’s what eats him up the most.”

Gadd claimed he went to great lengths to conceal the identity of the woman who stalked him in real life and has begged fans not to search for her.

However the ‘real life Martha’ has been unmasked as Fiona Harvey – a Scots woman who moved to London.

The law graduate’s social media page is swimming with a string of scathing comments towards Gadd.

And in her latest update, she blasted: “Gadd is no Brad Pitt.”

Elsewhere real-life stalker Martha hit out: “There’s a fat actress that’s supposed to be me.”

Fiona, 58, is from Fyvie, Aberdeenshire and says she met Gadd years ago when he was a bartender at The Hawley Arms in London’s Camden.

REINDEER STALKER POLITICIAN CLAIMS

A WOMAN claimed to be the real-life stalker from Netflix smash Baby Reindeer was previously accused of harassing two of Scotland’s leading politicians.

Fiona Harvey, 58, came into contact with the late Glasgow MP Jimmy Wray, who died aged 78 in 2013, and his solicitor wife Laura, 62, when she was a former Labour Party member.

Mrs Wray told how she gave Aberdeen Uni law graduate Ms Harvey a trainee role at legal firm McPhail Lawrence Partnership in 1997.

But she sacked her just days later because she was “completely incapable of behaving herself”.

Mrs Wray was then allegedly harassed by Ms Harvey — who was known at the time as Fiona Muir.

She claimed she was subjected to disturbing phone calls and an uninvited visit at her home — and was told: “I’m going to get you.”

She admits to befriending him and claims she gifted him a pair of “tartan M&S pants” to congratulate him on one of his comedy shows.

But she denies she stalked him and told the Scottish Sun: “I have a claim against Netflix as this is being billed as part of a true story.

“I’m a highly competent lawyer. I’d have to do it myself. I’m very good.

“I have a photographic memory and can memorise huge files. I was top in my school at everything.

As for how she discovered the show, she says she first became aware of it when Gadd took it to Edinburgh Fringe Festival as a one-man show.

She said: “He’s come up with this character called Martha and he has put me right in the frame.

“This is a programme for the 20-somethings. The people with no lives, no jobs, whatever. I don’t want to be a celebrity.”

The gritty thriller has become one of the streaming giant’s most talked about shows and has shot to number one in several countries worldwide.
