Martha Stewart reveals what makes men a catch

Lifestyle guru Martha Stewart

Martha Stewart's dream man is "very rich" and has a "nice-shaped head".

The 84-year-old lifestyle guru dated the likes of billionaire Microsoft software architect Charles Simonyi, 77, billionaire media proprietor Mortimer Zuckerman, 88, and 88-year-old actor Anthony Hopkins following her divorce from Andrew Stewart in 1990 after 29 years of marriage.

Rattling off the qualities she wants in her Mr Right, Martha told People: "Lots of things. Nice-looking, bald or not bald - I don't care. If they have a nice-shaped head, it's fine. [Also], nice teeth and a nice smile."

But if a "smart, funny" man is wealthy, that is a big plus for the star - who has an estimated $550 million fortune.

Laughing, Martha said: "Rich helps. Very rich helps even more. Plane and yacht would be very nice ... I love yachts."

Earlier this month, the Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia founder listed what she thinks makes her a good catch.

She told PageSix: "I’m a very good catch. I know how to cook, I know how to clean, I know how to keep a house; those are all very homemaker skills."

Martha noted that she "don’t have any time" to date.

She previously told E! News: "I know a lot of eligible men. I think they really want a woman who will take care of them, so I'm still not quite in the position where I can take care of a man full-time because I work too much."

In October 2024, the media personality revealed that she had an extramarital affair that her ex-husband, Andrew, never knew about.

Martha - who has 60-year-old daughter, TV presenter Alexis Stewart, with Andrew - said in the trailer for her Netflix documentary Martha: "Young women, listen to my advice. If you're married and your husband starts to cheat on you, he's a piece of s***."

The author was then questioned about her own affair, to which she replied: "Yeah, but I don't think Andy ever knew about that."

Following her divorce, Andrew went on to marry Robyn Fairclough in May 1993, who had worked as Martha's personal assistant, but they later divorced, and he is now married to Shyla Nelson, with whom he has five children.
