The MP’s wife who says she was a victim of the ‘Baby Reindeer stalker’ last night revealed she is considering legal action against Fiona Harvey after her controversial interview with Piers Morgan.

Laura Wray, 62, is threatening to sue after Ms Harvey claimed on the show – watched by 13 million – that she was harassed by Mrs Wray.

It comes after Mrs Wray exclusively told The Mail on Sunday that she was plagued by Ms Harvey for five years, which resulted in a restraining order being granted at Glasgow Sheriff Court in 2002.

Last night Mrs Wray, the widow of former Labour MP Jimmy Wray, said Ms Harvey made damaging statements during the Piers Morgan interview.

On the show, Ms Harvey denied being sacked by Mrs Wray at her law firm in 1997 and claimed she was the one who took out a court order against Mrs Wray.

Last night Mrs Wray said: ‘I felt I was defamed by Ms Harvey on Piers Morgan’s show. Many of the things she said were completely and utterly wrong and I would really like to set the record straight. Now I’m giving consideration to the possibility of raising an action for defamation against Ms Harvey.’

Last month The Mail on Sunday told how Mrs Wray was shocked to see her stalker portrayed as the character ‘Martha’ on the hit Netflix show Baby Reindeer.

The series, which has amassed more than 22million viewers, is based on the experience of Scottish comedian Richard Gadd. It hints at Martha’s previous history of stalking. Gadd’s character is seen looking her up online and finding articles – fictionalised – headlined: ‘Sick stalker targets barrister’s deaf child.’

This barrister is allegedly Mrs Wray, an advocate in Scotland who has a disabled son, Frankie. Originally a solicitor, Mrs Wray first encountered Ms Harvey – who was herself a law graduate – in 1997 when she was persuaded to employ her for a trial period at her law firm in Glasgow.

Mrs Wray was forced to sack Ms Harvey, who went on to stalk and harass her, which resulted in the solicitor securing an inderdict against her in April 2002.

The documents asking a sheriff to grant an order have been seen by this newspaper and detail the reasons Mrs Wray asked the court to intervene. These include Ms Harvey reporting Mrs Wray to social services for allegedly harming her disabled son.

But Ms Harvey told Piers Morgan: ‘She [Mrs Wray] messed up because I went into the High court in Edinburgh to get countrywide interdicts and an injunction because I was going to move to London anyway.’ She went on to brand it ‘nonsense’ that an interim interdict was granted.

Last night Mrs Wray said: ‘What she said is wrong and has been heard by millions of people. It’s inaccurate and untrue.’
