Martha Stewart (81) claims to have been single for 30 years and has little interest in changing that. Only with Pete Davidson (28) would she make an exception, as the TV chef and lifestyle icon announced on Drew Barrymore’s (47) show.
She played a game with the actress in which she was supposed to decide which dating criteria were particularly important to her or which were absolute no-gos. Barrymore started by asking, “If your date had as many tattoos as Pete Davidson…” whereupon Stewart immediately raised the green flag.
So Barrymore asked straight away, “Okay, your date is Pete Davidson…” Stewart unhesitatingly waved green again and replied, “I mean, he’s dated so many women… I’m not saying that’s a bad thing . I think that’s good and he’s pretty cute.” Davidson is known to have an impressive dating history, ranging from Ariana Grande (29) to Kate Beckinsale (49) and Kaia Gerber (21) to Kim Kardashian (42).
Stewart and Davidson have also met a number of times in show business. Among other things, there is a photo in which the two pose together with Kim Kardashian – with Davidson holding Stewart’s hand. Even then, Stewart had to ward off dating rumors. Despite this, she agrees with Barrymore in the interview: “Oh, he’s a good guy. A very good guy.”
When the actress teases the lifestyle icon that Davidson wouldn’t mind the big age difference, Stewart clarifies that to her, the comedian is more like the son she never had. And that the two could really have a meeting soon: “He’s a charming boy who will find his way. I invited him to join me on the podcast and I look forward to hearing what he has to say.”
