Piers Morgan is already facing a backlash from mental health campaigners and stalking survivors over his 'irresponsible' decision to interview the woman.
Piers Morgan has dropped the first teaser trailer for his bombshell interview with the 'real-life Martha' from Netflix smash Baby Reindeer.
MailOnline had until now chosen not to name and picture her. But following her appearance with Piers Morgan we have decided to publish her picture. In the clip, Morgan asks: 'First of all, why have you decided to go public? When did you know that you were the person being depicted? Have you ever been to prison?'
'Stop glamourising stalking,' added the professional jazz singer and business coach in a post on social media. The Scottish woman is set to break her silence in her first ever TV interview with Piers tonight from 8pm. 'I said,"Look, even if I had sent some emails, it doesn't mean I'm guilty of the rest of the stuff". As I said, in order to bill something as a"true story", it's got to be pretty much 100 per cent true.'The Piers Morgan Uncensored special will air on the broadcaster's YouTube channel, which has 2.58million subscribers, at 8pm.
The chilling real-life drama was inspired by the ordeal suffered by Scottish creator and leading man Richard Gadd - who is called Donny Dunn in the show. She also sent him hundreds of tweets and and flooded his phone with hours of voicemails over an alleged four-year campaign of terror. Over four and a half years, Gadd says he received 41,071 emails, 744 tweets, letters totalling 106 pages and 350 hours of voicemail messages from the older woman, whom he calls Martha in the show
'He always thinks he's at the centre of things. I'm not writing shows about him or promoting them in the media, am I? If he wanted me to be properly anonymous, he could have done so. Gadd should leave me alone,' she added. The actor and comedian was subjected to a campaign of obsession by the woman, known as Martha, that manifested in 41,071 emails, 744 tweets, 106 pages of letters and a staggering 350 hours of voicemail.
Gadd says he's currently single and 'is more cautious' of people because of the campaign of terror that Martha inflicted, saying: 'It takes me a long time to trust them. Before, I entered situations with such abandonment and I got burnt.'
