Turns out, Martha Stewart is out of the dating pool!
The Internet has been going crazy trying to figure out who the newest guy in her life is, but apparently, Stewart is not one to kiss and tell! She is keeping the identity of her new boyfriend a secret… at least, for now.
Stewart was previously married to Andrew Stewart from 1961 until they divorced in 1990. She chose to keep his last name of Stewart instead of reverting back to her maiden name of Kostrya.
In July 2020, Stewart teased a steamy pool selfie, which had one user commenting, “Martha is here for a hot girl summer.”
Comedian Chelsea Handler recreated the photo, and, during a video call between the pair, Stewart revealed that she “got a lot of marriage proposals” due to the photo.
When Handler asked if she got any worth considering, Stewart replied, “I was too busy enjoying the instant fame from a stupid selfie, for God’s sake, to engage with any proposals!”
“That’s what’s wrong with me,” she joked. “That’s why I’m still not married after a long marriage.”
Although she hadn’t remarried, she admitted that she’s not exactly single anymore, either!
Did Martha Stewart Provide Any Clues To Who He Might Be?

In an interview with host Andy Cohen on “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen” she admitted that she really did hear from “quite a few” individuals after she posted the photo, although it didn’t lead to any dates.
However, when Cohen asked if she was dating someone now, Stewart said “no” before immediately changing her mind.
“I shouldn’t say no,” she corrected herself. “I mean yes, but I’m not going to tell you.”
Earlier in the episode, Stewart talked about her relationship with the late Larry King, who passed away in January at 87-years-old.
She explained that the two had gone out to a restaurant – Elio’s - in New York City. Although she thought that it was just a dinner between friends, apparently King had other ideas.
"I thought we were just talking about journalism etc. etc., and then he sort of got a little amorous," she revealed.

For more adventurous bakers, Stewart also recently released a recipe for Bacon Potato Chip Chocolate Chip cookies, which calls for 8 slices of bacon, almost a cup of dark chocolate, and 2 cups of crushed potato chips.
Stewart has also written many cookie recipe books, including “Martha Stewart’s Cookie Perfection: 100+ Recipes to Take Your Sweet Treats to the Next Level: A Baking Book.”
