Hours After Bashing Ryan Reynolds Martha Stewart Takes an Aim at Meghan Markle-Built Brand
Martha Stewart is on a roll. The American retail mogul has been taking shot after shot at the big names in Tinseltown. But that is not too surprising, considering Stewart has always been known for speaking her mind and, well, usually ruffling a few feathers in the process. Recently, the billionaire made a comment about Ryan Reynolds. While the comment was not necessarily scandalous, it did risk the actor’s carefully crafted public image of being the funny, charming man of Hollywood. And now, Stewart is after Meghan Markle's brand.
Stewart is reportedly disapproving of Meghan Markle and her venture into the lifestyle industry with American Riviera Orchard.

Earlier this year, Meghan Markle launched her new brand, American Riviera Orchard, marking her return to the lifestyle scene. However, Martha Stewart, a lifestyle legend in her own right, is not exactly a fan of the brand. A source close to Stewart recently spoke with InTouch magazine and revealed that Stewart dislikes being asked about Markle’s brand and finds it rather “insulting.”
Stewart reportedly finds it “irritating” to be compared to a “rookie”. The source also added that the Duchess can not hold a candle to Stewart’s empire “just because she’s married to a prince.” This statement, however, was in complete contrast to Stewart's thoughts on Markle's brand at the Nassau Paradise Wine and Food Festival earlier this year. Nonetheless, with all the trademark troubles, Markle sure is not having a smooth journey on the venture and probably does not have much to give back to Stewart, unlike Ryan Reynolds.
Reynolds quickly shot back at Stewart’s comments about him on social media, proving that the messies can turn into the messer too.
Ryan Reynolds' cheeky response to Martha Stewart
This month, Martha Stewart appeared on Bilt Rewards’ Rent Free game show, where she claimed that Ryan Reynolds is “not so funny.” As the neighbor of the Deadpool star, her comments raised a few eyebrows and also hinted at the possibility of some tension between the two. However, Reynolds was quick with a witty comeback for Stewart.

Taking to X, Reynolds admitted, that he once tried to disagree with Stewart but found out she was “unexpectedly spry.” Shortly after, his pal and co-star, Hugh Jackman, also chimed in, humorously backing Stewart up by saying, “Finally someone says it.” While Reynolds certainly proved he can be funny, it remains to be seen how Meghan Markle would defend herself against Stewart’s alleged take on her brand.
