Martha Stewart Poses as Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Cover Model
Martha Stewart is making history, again.
The 81-year-old businesswoman was revealed as the oldest cover model in Sports Illustrated Swimsuit history on Monday.
Stewart will be featured as a cover model alongside Megan Fox, Kim Petras and Brooks Nader. She was photographed by Ruven Afanador in the Dominican Republic.
“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 told the magazine. “And I don’t think about age very much, but I thought that this is kind of historic.”
