The claims come after she was reportedly the inspiration for the hit Netflix series Baby Reindeer
The widow of former Labor MP Jimmy Wray has spoken out following the fictional portrayal of the stalker in the hit Netflix series.
Laura said she hadn’t thought about Fiona for years, but watching Piers Morgan interview her last night brought back old feelings, she told the Mirror.
Laura said: “My partner and I are worried about what she might do next. Will she come after me?
“She posts things on Facebook accusing me of all kinds of things, and that I’m offensive. You don’t know where it will end up.
“If she has friends, they should certainly try to help her and calm things down. But she doesn’t want to calm things down. A part of her really enjoys this. She even transformed for Piers Morgan.”
Fiona, originally from Fyvie, Aberdeenshire, denies bullying Laura and Jimmy and instead claims Laura was her political rival.
Fiona, 58, came into contact with the late Glasgow MP, who died aged 78 in 2013, and his barrister wife Laura, 62, when she was a former member of the Labor Party.
Laura shared what she remembers about Fiona’s alleged harassment a few years ago.
She said she had given the 1997 University of Aberdeen law graduate a traineeship at law firm McPhail Lawrence Partnership.
But Laura claimed she fired Fiona just days later because she was “totally incapable of behaving decently”.

Laura was then allegedly bullied by Fiona – who was known as Fiona Muir at the time.
She claimed she was subjected to harassing phone calls and an uninvited visit to her home – and was told: “I’m going to get you.”
Laura said she was so scared she set off personal alarms for her company’s workers as she, family and friends were bombarded with emails.
The final straw was when she stated that Fiona had reported her to social services.
Laura said: “She made some bizarre allegations that I was in my car and somehow managed to hit my son who was sitting in the back of the car in a child seat.
“In the end, everything was dropped, but then I asked for a temporary restraining order. Fortunately, it worked. She didn’t defend it. We never heard from her again.”
Laura served Fiona with a temporary restraining order to prevent her from contacting the lawyer or her politician husband, the Daily Record reported.
Last night on Pier Morgan Uncensored Fiona disputed a lot of what Laura said happened all those years ago.
Fiona claimed Laura was “stalking” her because she is “quite good at employment law”.
She also claims that she left the company, not that she was fired because the staff were rude to her.
I did not mistreat that family.

Fiona said it was “nonsense” that Laura served her with the ban because she “messed up” and didn’t file the paperwork properly.
She claimed that Laura submitted the paperwork because Fiona was “going to a parliamentary election” but she did not and appeared in court.
In fact, Fiona claimed it was her intention to file for a nationwide injunction against Laura and Jimmy when she moved to London.
Fiona claimed: “I didn’t bully that family.”
Laura said she was shocked that Netflix “didn’t try to hide the identity of the stalker” and that the company had a duty of care to Fiona.
Fiona is also said to have previously bullied the late First Minister Donald Dewar and made a bid for Labor to nominate her for a Holyrood seat.
She was said to have frequently turned up at surgeries in his constituency and claimed to be his “special adviser”.
Fiona is said to be the inspiration for the sinister Martha in the Netflix hit Baby Reindeer.
Written by and starring Scottish comedian Richard Gadd, 34, from Wormit, Fife, it tells how he was stalked by a possessed woman he met while working in a London pub while trying to make it big.
Fiona says she met him at the Hawley Arms pub in the city’s Camden and has received threats from fans after being linked to the character.
She claims she is considering legal action against streaming giant Netflix over her portrayal of the role.
What Fiona claims is true in the Baby Reindeer saga
Fiona Harvey – who claims to be the inspiration for the character Baby Reindeer Martha – says only a few things are true about the Netflix series.
The seven-part series, which premiered last month, was written by comedian Richard Gadd and is said to be based on his personal experiences of being stalked and sexually assaulted.
Gadd, 34, plays a fictionalized version of himself – Donnie Dunn – but Harvey, who was ‘outed’ by internet sleuths hours after the show was set, is adamant the story is “completely untrue”.
The 58-year-old law graduate said: “It’s a work of hyperbole, as I’ve always said. And there are two true facts about it. His name is Richard Gadd, and he works as a waiter on benefits, at the Hawley Arms and we met, two or three times…”
On whether she said it looked like a ‘baby reindeer’ toy she had as a child, she added: “I had a toy reindeer and he shaved his head, that’s true, and there were reindeer in the shops because it was Christmas time or something . That was a joke.
“So I accidentally wrote the name of the show.”
