Harry Styles has once again made headlines for having his privacy restricted. A young Brazilian woman identified as Myra Carvalho, 35, sent nearly 8,000 letters to his home in London in just one month. She looked for a hostel to settle in the Kensington neighborhood, where the artist lives, to have him closer. , and rebuked the singer on more than one occasion. A fanaticism for her favorite artist for which he is going to pay a dear price. The British newspaper The Sun has revealed that his actions “had an adverse effect on their usual daily activities.” For this reason, a British judge has sentenced the Brazilian to 14 weeks in prison, has imposed a 10-year restraining order on her, which includes a ban on attending any event in which the singer performs, and pay 156 euros for the damages committed, as was learned this Friday, April 19. His arrest occurred in February 2024, when the Brazilian tried to rebuke Harry Styles in the heart of the British capital.
The stalker moved from Brazil to England, without the knowledge of her loved ones, including her partner, expressing “sexual impulses” toward Styles, as she revealed to the court in February. This Tuesday, she pleaded guilty to one count of harassment involving alarm or serious distress. According to reports to which the newspaper has had access Daily Mail, Carvalho's defense claimed that his doctor in Brazil believed he was suffering “a manic episode.” Her parents moved to London to attend the hearing, held last February, where, according to the British tabloid, they cried after seeing their daughter appear on a video link from Bronzefield prison, where she has been held since the moment of his arrest.
For all these reasons, Carvalho will not be able to enter northwest London for 10 years. A source close to the artist confirmed to Daily Mail that he “was really shocked by the stalker's actions.” The composer of As it was and Sign of the Times He had just returned from a trip to the Caribbean with his current partner, Canadian actress Taylor Russell, when he was rebuked by the Brazilian: “This happened shortly after his return. Harry just wants to continue with his normal life. This has been worrying,” concludes the source.
The ruling confirms that Carvalho's actions had a “substantial adverse effect on the singer's daily activities.” The magistrates came to the conclusion that the Brazilian “followed a course of conduct that amounted to stalking that caused serious alarm or distress,” according to what was published by the British newspaper, which also had access to the official documents, in which claims that he “knew or should have known that his conduct would cause alarm or distress.”
The events are reminiscent of the incident involving Diana Tarazaga-Orero, who evaded the security of Harry Styles' house in 2022 and managed to enter the rooms of the house. A fact, according to The Sun, that led to the former member of the boy band One Direction to hire a night guard and install a panic lock on their bedroom door.
Harry Styles has not been the only one to suffer harassment or threats from some of his fans. There are several examples. In January 2018, Taylor Swift denounced a man who bombarded the artist with emails in which he threatened to kill her entire family: “The demon of the demon family: Scott, Austin, Taylor, Andrew. Truly, it is the end (…) And this is not a joke, because God is going to burn you in the desert for me. Go to hell Swift.” This 2024, a fan was arrested for bothering the artist and her neighbors up to 30 times at the door of her building in New York. In 2013, Canadian actress Geneviève Sabourin was sentenced to 30 days in prison for harassing and threatening Alec Baldwin, after intimidating the actor with messages in which she claimed that she was in love with him, that she wanted to have his child and that she needed money.
