Richard Gadd, actor and writer behind the hit series Baby Reindeer, has recently shared that he once felt “intolerable pressure” during a very tough time in his life.
Richard’s Netflix Psychological thriller has become a worldwide hit, as it’s based on his real story of being stalked and abused, and it’s won a bunch of big awards.
But the show has also caused a stir, people online think they found the real woman behind the stalker character. Her name is Fiona Harvey, and now she’s suing Netflix for damaging her name.
The 35-year-old star said that he needs a break to slow down and process everything that’s happened since the show came out.
He shared with The Guardian newspaper: “There have been a lot of challenging moments. The show has reached such an extreme pitch – there have been times when I’ve felt like the pressure was intolerable. It’s been a hurricane.
“I don’t think I’m at the point of reflection yet. I need some real time off to figure out how to get my feet back on ground, because I feel very squeezed.”
However, Richard Gadd never imagined Baby Reindeer would take off the way it has.
