Baby Reindeer’s Richard Gadd has been spotted for the first time since the now-viral Fiona Harvey interview — but this time, the focus isn’t her.
The ‘real-life Martha’Fiona Harvey was interviewed on Piers Morgan Uncensoredlast week, with Gadd not publicly commenting on the numerous allegations Harvey made against him.
However, Gadd has now been seen in public for the first time since, attending the TV BAFTA Awards alongside co-star — andfictional Martha— Jessica Gunning.

Instead of being there as an awards nominee — though this will likely be the case next year — the duo was on hand to present the award for Limited Drama, which was won by The Sixth Commandment.
Gadd made no comment on Baby Reindeer or theFiona Harveyinterview during red-carpet arrivals or during the award introduction speech.
However, plenty of fans noticed the pair’s presence, dividing fan opinion. “What’s he playing at!? Hanging out with his stalker!? It’s only going to make things worse,” one fanpostedon X/Twitter in confusion.
“He should be ashamed,” anotherweighed in, with a thirddisagreeing: “Jessica deserves EVERY AWARD! As does Richard!!”
A fourthstated: “We were waiting for Fiona to show up,” while a fifthcommented: “I hope he comes with some evidence.”
During her interview, Harvey claimed Gadd was “psychotic, he’s mentally unwell… I find the behavior outrageous,” adding that the show itself is “a work of fiction and hyperbole.” She also confirmed plans to move ahead with suing both Gadd and Netflix for defamation.
