Martha Stewart lives by two mottos: “When you’re through changing, you’re through” and “Learn something new every day.” Stewart, who worked as a model as a teenager, has built a lifestyle empire as the founder of Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia—she reaches more than 100 million fans monthly and has written nearly 100 books. The 81-year-old clearly swears by her mantras and did not shy away from tackling a new challenge head on: posing for the 2023 SI Swimsuit Issue and becoming the brand’s oldest cover model in history.

“When I heard that I was going to be on the cover of Sports Illustrated Swimsuit, I thought, Oh, that’s pretty good, I’m going to be the oldest person I think ever on a cover of Sports Illustrated,” Stewart casually admits. “And I don’t think about age very much, but I thought that this is kind of historic.”
