82-Year-Old Martha Stewart Takes Thirst Trap
Martha Stewart, the celebrated lifestyle guru at the age of 82, continues to captivate her audience with her enchanting selfies, proving that age is just a number when it comes to staying alluring and confident.
On Friday morning, Stewart graced her Instagram followers with a steamy bathroom mirror selfie that harked back to her sultry poolside snapshot from July 2020. In this new photograph, she exuded timeless elegance while posing in a silver nightgown.
“After an eight hour plane trip from westchester to palm beach- horrible by the way – we went to bed early and wore my beautiful @sabbiarosa nightgown (linen with robe). didn’t look so bad when I got up at least not as bad as I did when I went to bed- it must be the $$$$$outfit!!” she captioned the post.
Martha’s July 2020 Instagram post garnered substantial attention, and she later revealed during an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in April 2021 that she received “so many proposals and so many propositions” in the weeks that followed.
In the time that has passed, Martha has become somewhat of a thirst trap expert. In February 2022, she shared selfie-taking tips with her social media followers in a TikTok campaign for the beauty brand Clé de Peau Beauté. Her advice included the suggestion to “project fabulous” during photoshoots and featured endorsements for the brand’s products.
The poolside selfie that the celebrated lifestyle guru took in 2020 remains a memorable pop culture moment, even though she initially snapped it by mistake. “I was trying to take a picture of the beautiful turquoise planter at the end of the pool, but the camera was on me, so I just snapped it,” she explained. “It looked so good, so I posted it. I didn’t know what a ‘thirst trap’ was, but now I do. Now I’m looking for the next thirst trap. I love doing those promiscuous, provocative things because it’s just fun.”
When Martha spoke with PEOPLE earlier this summer, she remained coy about whether another thirst trap was on the horizon, saying, “Who knows?” However, just days later, she treated her followers to another captivating selfie, this time from a pool at the Hotel Castello di Reschio in Italy.
“The #castellodireschio is a 13 century castle remade by a very creative couple into a special resort of extraordinary quality. The heated pool in a stone tower was the perfect place for a new selfie! Dark. Candle lit. Mysterious. Relaxing before a massage and ablutions prior to @brunellocucinelli_brand founders 70th birthday in Solomeo,” she captioned.
