Sharon Ni Bheolain complains to Press Council over stalking intrusion

RTE star Sharon Ni Bheolain is understood to have lodged a complaint with the Press Council after being photographed following her stalker hell.

The 6.01 presenter was left distressed after three newspapers published pictures of her in her pyjamas just days after it emerged she was a victim of stalking.

Afterwards, Sharon complained on Liveline about the pictures and the way she was treated in the media – threatening at the time to take the matter further.

Now, Goss.ie have confirmed that the 43-year-old journalist has proceeded with a complaint, although RTE insiders said is not known precisely what she has complained about.

Today an RTE spokeswoman told Goss.ie: “Officially RTE or Sharon are not commenting on the matter.”

It comes just after it emerged a second man was being investigated by Gardai over stalking the newsreader.

On Liveline, Sharon said she did not think the photos of her were in the public interest and feared media coverage could have hurt chances of prosecution.

“I am very cross about the fact that all of this media kerfuffle has probably hampered this investigation,” she said.

“It’s an ongoing investigation and I can say very little but it’s my belief that there was more than one person involved and certainly all of this media kerfuffle would certainly have tipped off any other parties to destroy evidence.

“And I don’t think that prosecution will be successful now as a result of all of this so that is deeply, deeply disturbing and deeply upsetting.”
