A woman accused of stalking Harry Styles allegedly sent the singer 8000 cards in less than one month including “wedding cards”.

Myra Carvalho, 35, had travelled from her native Brazil to the UK before allegedly harassing the One Direction star at his home.

This included sending handwritten letters and getting cards delivered to his address in the North London borough of Barnet, a court heard.

Ms Carvalho was staying at a hostel in Earls Court, west London, at the time, according to court documents.

She had entered the UK on a three-month visitors visa in mid December, reported The Sun.

Alejandra Toscon, prosecuting, told Harrow Crown Court the stalking charge related to the “writing of cards online which were then sent to the complainant via a third party” and the “posting of handwritten letters”.

Her alleged offences had a “substantial adverse effect on [Styles’] usual day-to-day activities when you knew or ought to have known that your course of conduct would cause alarm or distress”, according to the charge.

Ms Carvalho appeared in court on Tuesday (London time) on a video link from Bronzefield prison in Surry, South west of London, wearing a black puffer jacket and spoke to confirm her name. She was not asked to enter a plea.

Judge Karim Ezzat remanded her in custody until the next hearing on April 19.

Styles ‘really shaken up’

Insiders said Styles had only recently returned from a holiday in the Caribbean when the alleged incidents occurred.

A source previously told The Sun: “Harry was really shaken up”.

“He had spent the start of the month in Anguilla on holiday and he’d had a great break. This happened not long after he had come back to London.

“Harry just wants to carry on as normal but naturally this has been concerning for him, his family and his team.”

The star, who turns 30 next week, previously spoke of being left “scared” and having to upgrade his security after Pablo-Diana Tarazago-Orero forced his way into his London home.

He had met the stalker at a bus stop and offered to help, believing the person was homeless.

But Tarazago-Orero, 29, subsequently camped outside his house and once tried to grab him while he was jogging.

Tarazago-Orero was convicted of stalking the star in 2019 but later admitted breaching the restraining order by forcing entry into Styles’ home in a terrifying incident in 2022.

At a court hearing, it was revealed that Styles now employs a night guard, locks his bedroom door at night and assesses his home for weak spots following the nightmare.

Discussing the fear caused by stalker Tarazago-Orero, the singer previously said: “I saw him incredibly often. Almost every day. I could feel him watching me. It made me feel incredibly uncomfortable”.

“Up until that point I had never felt unsafe or uneasy at my own house. I’d never encountered this kind of behaviour before.”
