There was a Mr. Stewart. He is a stockbroker, I think. She's really Polish, her maiden name is not at all WASP-y. Pietrowski. I'm making the name up, but you see the problem. Nobody wants to emulate Martha Pietrowski. Martha Kowalski. Nope. But he didn't go with her decor, so she jettisoned him in the end, once she had more money than he did, probably.
<edit>Kostyria, I looked it up. And found the dirt: But not everything was perfect for Martha: her 29-year marriage to Andy Stewart ended in a bitter divorce in 1990, with her husband obtaining a court order to prevent Martha from speaking to him or his family. In 1993, he married Martha's former assistant, who happens to be 21 years his junior.
Oh, but there's a happy ending ~ her "companion" ~ Charles Simonyi (Microsoft billionaire). |
