BABY Reindeer star Richard Gadd has posed for a very unlikely selfie after bumping into a Love Island legend at the BAFTAs.
The actor, who both stars in and wrote the hit Netflix show Baby Reindeer, found himself rubbing shoulders with the reality icon at the TV awards ceremony.
The pair were at the event when Georgia Harrison – who most recently starred in Love Island All Stars – grabbed him for a snap.
Richard obliged and leaned into Georgia as she pouted away for the camera.
This wasn’t the only surprise selfie starring the Scottish comedian to emerge from the from the glitzy ceremony, either.
Richard was also pictured alongside Vicky Pattison, who rose to fame in Geordie Shore.
Vicky looked even more excited than Georgia to have found the real-life Donny at the BAFTAs on Sunday night in London.
Sharing her own selfie with Richard on social media, she gushed: “Met @richardgadd, he was so humble and lovely and I was clearly over excited.”
Richard, who based Baby Reindeer on his own experience as a victim of stalking, attended the BAFTAs with his co-star Jessica Gunning.
Jessica, who plays stalker Martha in the series, wore a gorgeous wine-coloured dress and posed alongside Richard on the red carpet at the South Bank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall in London.
In the show, Richard plays barman Donny, who finds himself targeted by obsessive loner, Martha.
Martha pretends to be a lawyer but actually lives in a dingy flat where she sends countless emails and texts harassing the man she has become infatuated with.
The massive success of the series has prompted fans to try and find the identity of the ‘real Martha’, despite both Richard and Jessica urging them not to online.
Last week, Piers Morgan sat down for an interview with Fiona Harvey, a real life woman accused of being the inspiration for the character.
Fiona admitted to having four mobile phones and six email addresses but denied ever hounding Baby Reindeer’s creator Richard.
The 58-year-old instead claimed the ‘real life’ story is “completely untrue”, while accusing Richard of being a “psychotic misogynist”.
The Netflix series has become quite the breakout smash hit...
Fiona claims she has received awful abuse from online ‘sleuths’ off the back of the seven-episode series, including death threats.
As a result, she has vowed to sue Netflix and Richard over the “defamatory” depiction of her as Martha.
