Martha Stewart Claims Luann's Ex Tom D'Agostino "Ruined" Her First NYC Apartment
The entertaining expert isn't entirely pleased with the changes Luann de Lesseps' ex-husband made to her former apartment.
For Martha Stewart and Tom D'Agostino, the quibble didn't necessarily end with a returned pie dish.
To back up a bit, Luann de Lesseps' ex-husband, Tom, lives in the New York City penthouse that the entertaining queen inhabited in the 1960s. For a 2017 article in New York Magazine, Stewart visited her former dwelling space and made Tom an apple pie while she was there. Those apples, however, turned into beef.
After her meeting with Tom, Stewart remarked to New York Magazine: "I think he liked the fact that I brought him an apple pie. He still hasn’t returned my dish, though." Big mistake: It was Stewart's very favorite pie dish. Later, we should note, Tom did leave the dish with his doorman, and one of Stewart's assistants retrieved it. But her objections weren't limited to said baking vessel.
She also told the magazine that the renovations he'd made on her former home were not her style. "I was a little taken aback," she said then. Well, what's the state of Tom v. Martha Stewart today?
Stewart gave an update when she appeared on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on January 16. In the clip above, a caller asked Stewart for her first impression of Tom when she met him, and: "how pissed were you when he wouldn't return your pie dish?" Stewart replied, "Well, the apartment looked so different, he kind of ruined it. And, uh, leave it at that."
Stewart had previously told New York: "That apartment was very beautiful and light-filled and airy — and all white, the way it was meant to be. Now it’s much more enclosed and dark! Now it has hedges blocking the views, because the views now look into other buildings. And it’s more masculine-looking. I mean, he’s now a bachelor, isn’t he? It’s not my style anymore."
