Claire Foy stalker has been meted out a suspended prison sentence and is soon to be repatriated to the States.

According to BBC, Jason Penrose harassed her, sending more than 1,000 emails in one month and was spotted outside her north London home.

The Old Bailey heard that Ms Foy now "views the world in a much more fearful way".

Previously in November, the 49-year-old admitted stalking the actress for over six months.

Further, he also admitted to sending her a parcel, breaching a stalking protection order.

In a statement by Ms Foy read to the court, the star said she had felt "terrified and helpless in my own home", adding: "I feel like the freedoms I enjoyed before Mr Penrose contacted me have now gone."

Moreover, Penrose also has paranoid schizophrenia and has been held in a mental health unit in London for the last year.
