‘Martha’ from Baby Reindeer ‘bombarded Keir Starmer with emails’
The ‘real life Martha’ from Baby Reindeer bombarded Sir Keir Starmer with almost 300 emails, it has been reported.
Fiona Harvey allegedly sent the Labour leader a barrage of abusive messages in the space of eight months in which she used a disabled slur to attack his wife and gloated over two of his dead relatives.
Harvey, 58, is accused of sending 276 vile emails to his parliament address between January and August 2020.
In them, she calls him a ‘stupid little boy’, that he was a ‘useless barrister’, and launches an attack on his wife Lady Victoria Starmer who she says looks ‘dreadful’, reported The Sun.
She signed all of the emails off with ‘Sent from my iPhone‘ – like those sent by Martha Scott in the hit Netflix series despite her sending them from a desktop computer.

The Met Police has reportedly been made aware of the emails. MailOnline has contacted the force for further comment.
Labour declined to comment when contacted by MailOnline.
Harvey, originally from Aberdeenshire, allegedly launched her hateful email campaign when she lived in Kilburn, which neighbours the the MP’s Holborn and St Pancras’ ward.
She allegedly moans to Sir Keir about her issues with Camden council about her block of flats and the area.
While in another, it is reported she sent him pictures of some rubbish and wrote ‘it’s as filthy a s stArmers house’.
In one email, seen by The Sun, written on April 9, 2020, she said: ‘Keir cut the crap with me you stupid little boy.
‘You get elected leader of. Non party and within two minutes I get an email calling me a racist from the housing ombudsman I’ve already complained about you to the standards commissioner who guess what also does nothing. See from now on il l complain about the slightest little thing
‘Your life won’t be worth living.’

Fiona Harvey gave her first television interview last week with Piers Morgan where she denied stalking Richard Gadd
Baby Reindeer, the extraordinary hit Netflix drama, has been viewed more than 60 million times in the past month

Camden council officials, councillors, and her own MP for Hampstead and Kilburn Tulip Siddiq are also sent some of the emails, the newspaper reported.
Harvey allegedly sent a 1,420-word email to Sir Keir in which she says Labour’s shadow cabinet is ‘full of imbeciles’.
Baby Reindeer, based on a true story by writer and lead actor Richard Gadd, follows Donny Dunn (Richard) and his relationship with stalker ‘Martha’ (Jessica Gunning).
The show alleges that the comedian’s female stalker conducted a relentless stalking campaign which started after he served her in a London pub while working as a bartender.
Harvey appeared on Piers Morgan Uncensored last week where in a bombshell interview she furiously denied stalking Gadd and said she would take Netflix to court over the drama.
She said she had only met the comedian three times and when quizzed on the content of some of the messages she admitted sending him called them ‘jokey banter’
The Scottish woman went on to say she wanted to ‘set the record straight’ following the Netflix show’s phenomenal global success and trolls contacting her online after it began streaming.
However, she denied sending him 41,000 emails and scores of tweets and claimed instead it was more like just ten messages and one letter sent by post.
In the wide-ranging interview with Piers Morgan, she revealed details of her ‘impoverished’ upbringing and that she was in a five-year relationship with a male lawyer.
Baby Reindeer has proven a surprise smash for Netflix, having been viewed more than 60 million times in the first month.
