Netflix’s new documentary, Martha, dropped onto the streaming platform this Wednesday.

“Told in her own words, this candid documentary charts the unstoppable rise, sudden fall and hard-won comeback of lifestyle icon Martha Stewart,” the synopsis for the documentary reads.

But the star of the show, Martha, has now shared how she didn’t enjoy the second half of the film and even “hates” some parts of it.

The new documentary film was directed by veteran documentary filmmaker R.J. Cutler, whose previous docs include The September Issue and Elton John: Never Too Late.

Speaking to The New York Times in a new interview, Martha shared that she thought it was “shocking” that the filmmaker “used very little” to her archives.

She then slammed R.J. Cutler for portraying her as a “lonely old lady” in the final scenes of the film.

“Those last scenes with me looking like a lonely old lady walking hunched over in the garden?” she exclaimed.

“Boy, I told him to get rid of those. And he refused. I hate those last scenes. Hate them,” she added.

Touching on how she was “walking hunched over”, Martha said, “I had ruptured my Achilles tendon.

“I had to have this hideous operation. And so I was limping a little.


“But again, he doesn’t even mention why — that I can live through that and still work seven days a week.”

And Martha’s critique of the movie didn’t stop there, because she had several other scathing comments to make about the documentary about her life.

Wanting rap music, Martha was disappointed with the score consisting of mostly classical music.

BAD CAMERA ANGLES

And the camera angles didn’t impress Martha either.

OLDEST WOMAN ON SPORTS ILLUSTRATED

In May 2023, Martha, who was 81 at the time, made history as the oldest woman to appear on the cover of Sports Illustrated’s Swimsuit issue.

Donning a white swimsuit for the occasion, Martha made headlines when she posed up a storm and showed off her ageless figure to the world on the cover of the popular glossy magazine.

Shortly after the cover was unveiled, Martha told Entertainment Tonight that her love life heated up in the aftermath of the world seeing her in her bikini.

CHEATING BOMBSHELL

Martha was married to her former husband Andrew Stewart for almost 30 years.

The pair were married for a number of years before they separated in 1987. With them officially filing for divorce in 1990.

In a clip for the new documentary before its release, the famous lifestyle guru was giving advice to younger women who have been betrayed, advising them to escape from their marriages.

But then a producer interjected with a home truth for Martha.

The producer said: “Didn’t you have an affair early on?” To which Martha replied: “Yeah but I don’t think Andy ever knew about that.”
