Fiona Harvey has emphatically denied that she did most of the things the fictional version of herself did in Netflix’s hit series Baby Reindeer—but she wasn’t terribly convincing.

Weeks after fans of the show identified her as the real-life inspiration behind Martha, the show’s stalker character, through some old tweets, Harvey had her first sit-down interview with British broadcaster Piers Morgan. In the interview, which aired Thursday afternoon, Harvey officially came forward as the real-life Martha and called Richard Gadd, the writer and star of the series who plays a fictionalized version of himself, a “liar” and “misogynist” who’s profiting off her misery by embellishing their interactions with one another. Both Gadd and Netflix have said the series is “a true story.”

Baby Reindeer follows Gadd’s complicated relationship with his stalker, as he’s plagued by Martha’s constant presence and correspondence, which he says consisted of 41,000 emails, 350 voicemails, 744 tweets, 48 Facebook messages, and 106 letters. But Harvey said this week that none of that ever happened—and she plans to sue Gadd, Netflix, and anyone else who’s “going along and being in that play and doing this to somebody.”
