In a move that has left the internet buzzing, domestic goddess Martha Stewart, at the ripe age of 82, has proven she’s not afraid to flaunt her glamorous side.
The lifestyle icon recently shared a “sexy” new photo on her social media, leaving fans both astonished and inspired.
“After an eight hour plane trip from westchester to palm beach- horrible by the way – we went to bed early and wore my beautiful @sabbiarosa nightgown (linen with robe),” she wrote alongside the photo.
“I didn’t look so bad when I got up at least not as bad as I did when I went to bed- it must be the $$$$$outfit!!”

Fans went wild over Stewart’s snapshot, unleashing a tidal wave of praise that echoed across social media, proving once and for all that the internet is just as smitten with Martha’s bold elegance as they are with her impeccable recipes.
“Sheesh! Save some sexy for the rest of us Mama!” one fan wrote in response to the pic.
“I love this thirst trap journey she is on. LOVE.”
“Looking gorgeous!!” commented another.
“Go hot Martha!! Damn you are looking hotter this days! Good for you!!”
This unexpected viral moment comes on the heels of her appearance on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit edition.
Stewart made history as the publication’s oldest cover star, stealing the title from 74-year-old model Maye Musk who appeared on the magazine’s cover in 2022.
Before the magazine graced shelves, Stewart shared a peek of the magazine cover on her Instagram page, telling her loyal fans that she hoped the cover would inspire others “to challenge” themselves and “try new things” no matter their age.
“My motto has always been: ‘when you’re through changing, you’re through’, so I thought, why not be up for this opportunity of a lifetime?” Stewart wrote alongside her post.
“I hope this cover inspires you to challenge yourself to try new things, no matter what stage of life you are in. Changing, evolving, and being fearless – those are all very good things, indeed.”

Stewart admitted that she didn’t hesitate for a moment when the opportunity to model for the publication presented itself.
“I thought, ‘I can do this. I don’t have to give in to convention,’” Stewart told Sports Illustrated.
“Usually I’m motivated by pay. But this time I was motivated by showing people that a woman my age could still look good, feel good, be good.
“I don’t think about age very much but I thought that this is kind of historic, and I better look really good because I want other women to feel that they could also be on the cover of Sports Illustrated.”
