Personal life

[edit]

Stewart was born in Manhattan. She graduated from Putney School in Putney, Vermont, in 1983. She earned a bachelor's degree in English at Barnard College at Columbia University in 1987. [1] Her mother, Martha Stewart, had also attended Barnard.

In 1997, Stewart married John Robert Cuti, a lawyer and former lead guitarist for The Inflatables. Cuti served as a trial lawyer during Martha Stewart's ImClone stock trading case, alongside her lead attorney Robert Morvillo. Stewart and Cuti separated before Martha Stewart was indicted in June 2003 but were not divorced until mid-2004, after the trial was over.

Stewart has a daughter Jude (born 2011) and son Truman (born 2012), both through gestational surrogacy.[2]

Stewart previously co-hosted Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer on Sirius Satellite Radio and as of September 13, 2010, also on television on the Hallmark Channel. Stewart and former radio partner Jennifer Hutt talked about topics ranging from pop culture to personal relationships.

On Whatever, Martha, Stewart and Hutt made fun of old Martha Stewart Living episodes and attempt to cook or create one of Martha Stewart's projects to see how difficult the projects are to complete. In one episode, Martha appears on the show and makes fun of herself and her guests.

The third season of Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer, which ran as Whatever, You're Wrong!, premiered on the Hallmark Channel on April 8, 2011.
