Martha Stewart, the lifestyle expert, has made her Sports Illustrated debut on the iconic Swimsuit Issue cover. At 81, she is the oldest participant ever, a fact she finds historic: “I’m going to be the oldest person I think ever on a cover of Sports Illustrated.” She embraced the challenge of her photoshoot in the Dominican Republic, wearing 10 different looks, but the final cover features her in a white swimsuit with a plunging neckline and an orange shawl.
Age holds no significance for Stewart in daily life: “Age is not the determining factor in terms of friendship or in terms of success.” She embraces her role as a “bona fide sex symbol,” advocating for looking great at any age and sharing “thirst traps” on social media.
Martha Stewart’s age-defying attitude sets an inspiring example for all of us.
