Laura Woods has spoken of feeling “exposed” and “anxious” after enduring years of stalking and targeted abuse.
The ITV and TNT mainstay told The Daily Telegraph the harassment from a Liverpool fan began in 2021.
Harneet Kaur was jailed for 14 months over the sustained campaign of abuse, which included online harassment and sending s**ual health kits to Woods’ home.
“For three years, she would go to extreme lengths to make my life very uncomfortable. There were birthday cards that would say: ‘Today’s the day you were born and tonight’s the night you’re going to die,” the 38-year-old recalled.
“I would receive monthly funeral letters, because she had signed me up to these things. She sent the animal welfare team around about my dog,” she added.
The prolonged intimidation pattern also included false reports to police and animal welfare, photographs of Woods’ front door and signing her up to dating and spam websites.
“There was a video she posted with a gun in America at a shooting range, and it was directed at me. It was just too much, and it changed the way I felt about London. I lived on my own with my dog, and I felt very exposed,” Laura admitted.
“I didn’t want to be there any longer. It spun me into quite a bad place. Suddenly I was extremely anxious and low,” Laura Woods concluded.
