The court documents reveal that Ms. Harvey vehemently denies the allegations of sexual assault made against her by the show’s creator. The lawsuit accuses Netflix of perpetuating falsehoods for profit, stating that the streaming platform continued to spread these lies because they made for a more compelling narrative that generated revenue.

One particular scene in the series portrays the Martha character, allegedly based on Ms. Harvey, sexually assaulting the protagonist along a canal. Ms. Harvey expressed confidence in her legal team’s ability to secure victory, emphasizing that they wouldn’t pursue the case if they didn’t believe in its merits.

Richard Roth, representing Ms. Harvey, asserted that there is undeniable evidence confirming that his client’s identity was used as the basis for the Baby Reindeer plot.

He presented documentary evidence, including a background check and certificate, indicating that Ms. Harvey has no criminal convictions on record.

Since the series’ release in April, Ms. Harvey claims to have received numerous death threats, resulting in heightened fear and anxiety. She has become extremely isolated and secluded, avoiding leaving her home and checking the news for days at a time due to concerns for her safety.

During an interview with Piers Morgan, Ms. Harvey admitted to knowing the show’s creator during his time working at a London pub but denied behaving like the Martha character depicted in the series, who bombards the protagonist with emails and voicemail messages.

“None of that’s true. I don’t think I sent him anything,” she said.
“No, I think there may have been a couple of emails exchanged, but that was it. Just jokey banter emails.”
The lawsuit does say, however, that some real comments she made to Mr Gadd – such as a tweet she sent him in 2014 – are used in the show’s dialogue.
