‘I would be absolutely disappointed if the controversy had detracted from the show's positive impact, which saw an increase in men who had been abused seeking support.’ - Anne Mensah, Vice-President of UK content at Netflix, reflects on the importance of the show's message amidst backlash.
‘This is a true story’ claims made by the show sparked significant controversy, leading to public scrutiny of its portrayal of real-life events and the actual individuals involved.
After the release of Baby Reindeer, the real-life figure behind the stalker, Fiona Harvey, is suing Netflix claiming that her portrayal is inaccurate and damages her reputation.
Despite the backlash regarding its claims of truthfulness, Anne Mensah emphasizes that Baby Reindeer is fundamentally a drama, meant to resonate with viewers on deeper issues.
