Martha's new story
In the trailer for her new Netflix documentary, 'Martha,' the lifestyle mogul admits to having an affair while married to Andy Stewart. "Young women, listen to my advice, if you're married and your husband starts to cheat on you, he's a piece of (trash)," Stewart, 83, says in the trailer. "Get out of that marriage."
A producer chimes in, asking, "Didn’t you have an affair early on?" Stewart responds: "Yeah, but I don’t think Andy ever knew about that." Her bold statement echoes her no-nonsense attitude towards life and love.
Martha Stewart's divorce was not just a personal setback but a family anomaly. "Getting divorced was a terrible thing for me," Stewart reflects on her separation, highlighting her resilience and determination to move forward. Her journey wasn't just about overcoming personal trials but also shattering societal expectations.
"The cookie cutter house and the cookie cutter life was not for me," she asserts, showcasing her refusal to be a "miserable, has-been housewife."
"What is more important, a marriage or a career?" Stewarts asks in the Netflix trailer. A producer prompts her, saying, "You tell me." Stewart responds, "I don't know."
But she does emphasize, "The cookie cutter house and the cookie cutter life was not for me. … I could have just been a miserable, has-been housewife, but I didn't let that happen to myself. And I'm so happy I didn't."
The documentary doesn't shy away from Stewart's darker days, including her 2004 indictment and subsequent prison sentence. Yet, it's her remarkable comeback that stands out. Stewart's friendship with rapper Snoop Dogg, her stunning appearance on the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover at 81, and her continued relevance in the cultural zeitgeist underscore her unparalleled ability to reinvent herself.
The trailer has ignited a firestorm on social media, with fans rallying behind Stewart's unapologetic honesty and fierce independence. From expressions of shock to declarations of support, the internet is abuzz with anticipation for the full documentary.
"Period Martha! Standing on business," another person wrote on X. One person joked about Stewart's reaction, writing, "Martha said 'aht aht, we ain’t talking about me.'"
Another X user wrote, "As always, I support women's wrongs..."
"What does it mean to be the first female, self-made billionaire in American history?" Stewart asks with a laugh at the beginning of the trailer. "I was considered crazy, but it worked" Stewart says over a montage of images and videos of her early years through her "thirst traps" of today.
The lifestyle guru grew to fame as a culinary connoisseur and home expert through her Martha Stewart Living empire, including cookbooks, her magazine and her famed TV show. "I'm strict and I'm demanding and I'm all those good things that make a successful person," Stewart says. "I was on top of the world.
