Despite dabbling in online dating last year, domestic diva Martha Stewart, 72, is still looking for love.
“I’m looking for a partner,” Stewart says matter-of-factly from her corporate test kitchen in Haute Living magazine’s July issue.
“Love will have something to do with it I’m sure,” she mused. “I’d love to have a more regular male companion.”
But Martha’s not interested in just any ordinary affair. She wants “an amenable kind of person . . . there are plenty of people who I could date that would be inappropriate. Married men, for example.”
Last year, Stewart very publicly joined Match.com after telling Matt Lauer on “Today” she wanted to try online dating. Lauer and the site helped her comb through thousands of suitors, before she went on dates with two divorcees called Larry and Stan (last names withheld). Apparently things did not work out.
Stewart, who was married to publisher Andrew Stewart from 1961 to 1987, also reveals in the cover story she’d be interested in returning to modeling — her profession in the 1960s.
“I think that I have discovered a lot of ways to stay pretty and maintain good health and vitality,” Stewart says. “I have impeccable eyes and impeccable hearing, and it has a lot to do with genetics, but it also has a lot to do with how I take care of myself. For instance, I don’t put earplugs in my ears. I wouldn’t think of it!”
Stewart’s rep did not return a request for comment regarding how and where the mogul is looking for love these days.
