She clearly loves her daughter...sounds like she wasn't a particularly strict parent, but her daughter no doubt coveted her mother's success (she certainly took advantage of that).
Maybe some people hates martha but there was once we were watching Martha Stewart show in the middle of the night making orange cake and the next thing i know the whole neighbourhood got some orange cake feast at the backyard of our house. It was the best orange cake i have ever tasted . Didnt know my mom had a book dedicated to martha stewart recipes
I honestly think people think too hardly about this. The book was clearly overly dramatized and made her life seem worse than it actually was. Clearly Martha KNEW most of this book was this way and didn’t take it seriously, so why tf are so many other people?
with martha, i always feel she's tightly wound up. and in this case, she proved me right. she seems like she's getting back at her daughter by brushing it off and saying she doesnt care.
They probably had a fight like normal mother/daughters do, and Alexis decided to write the book to get back at her mother. And why would anyone buy a boring book about her picture perfect life? She's clearly lying to make her book more sensational, therefore sell more of them.
NO, Alexis is exaggerating. My proof is that my cousins lived in Greenwich and remember the house be very over the top and well decorated. And yes they did give out candy.
poor Martha having such a mean, selfish daughter! Would rather read one of Martha's cookbook/handicraft book/magazines, then a sensationalist "I had a terrible childhood" book by a self-pitying girl who has so much! Get over yourself Alexis!
Alexis used a sperm bank - lF she had any humanity left, she would start a Fertility Clinic to help ALL women seeking to start a family!!! Celine Dion could help with all her millions of $$$$$....
I got into cooking because of this show. Imagine my heartbreak when one day I learned she had skipped out and gone to Hallmark Channel. I haven't touched my All-Clad cookware since that day. I don't know what possessed her to leave network tv. I used to DVR it every day and watch it after work. PBS for her is going backwards, and it's just not the same format.
You seriously need to get over it. She does not have to stay on the same network to please you. She has to do what's right for her life and career. There is nothing wrong with P b s. Unlike these networks that treat their employees horribly and have a mountain of sexual harassment suits, PBS actually does a service for the community. I can't imagine why you would be this upset over her going to another channel. There are many people who enjoy both her shows on PBS.
Cassandra Fay You need to get a life. Stop reading so much “upset” into a simple observation and opinion. You clearly know nothing of the television business. The comment was coming from a perspective of the reach her network show enjoyed as compared to now. UPS and Hallmark could NEVER be as ubiquitous as network tv for someone in her brand of programming. But she was blinded by greed. It has since been revealed she walked from her network contract after Hallmark offered her more money. But then Hallmark canceled her, because..of COURSE! The Hallmark demographic is not a cookery show demographic. Her greed landed her back where she started when she was a nobody: PBS. These are the facts, plainly. And simply. There’s nothing to get over, darling.
My daughter used to tell my mom that we didn't have any food during middle school and high school. She too only meant there wasn't anything in a box she could just open and eat out of it immediately. Heaven forbid she'd have to cook. Fridge, freezer and pantry were always stocked.

Martha loves her daughter
Really
Oh boy fun looking back at everything Martha 🌞
All we should get from this is a confused daughter. Hopefully Martha wasn't too hurt behind this. We know parents try their best.
Cybill Shepherd was a perfect casting choice to play her.

My mom used to make that orange cake. I still have the fax to me with its recipe.
Martha looks beautiful.

I think they are not estranged. I wonder if Martha will leave her fortune to her daughter??? Not sure I would.Maybe the grandkids.
Yea, I think she’s always a bit guarded.
I loved watching her show.
"Buy it make it a best seller".Cause I just cut the kid out of my will.
Your own family is your worst enemy like in the case of Martha and her daughter. Actress Bette Davis and her daughter.

How have your last 9 years been lol
martha actually turned the lights off during halloween to keep the trick or treaters away? no way! :)
NO, Alexis is exaggerating. My proof is that my cousins lived in Greenwich and remember the house be very over the top and well decorated. And yes they did give out candy.
Who cares if she did?
Love Martha:)
I miss this show!
I just love her.
Alexis is not too much like her mother. Maybe her temperament. But Martha seems friendlier.
Martha with her daughter = bitchfest
And here you are, watching it :)
poor Martha having such a mean, selfish daughter!

I like Martha but I don't think her daughter was lying
lots of awkward tension here
Well that was awkward LOL
I've always thought she was a bit of a"hornbag"... maybe it's just me??.😂😂😂
What everland. great name

and he didnt even link it lol
reminiscent of 1978's "mommie dearest" or 1985's "my mothers keeper"!! martha dearest can laugh ha!

what a waste of paper
Must be horrible to have Martha Stewart as a mom 🙄
Joey is so annoying
Lol she's like their was nothing in the fridge just ingredients... Nothing was ever prepared... What a brat

that's the telltale sign of a spoiled brat.
This book was obviously a massive joke.
Fake, fake, fake.
