She also once co-wrote a book. Surprisingly, Alexis has made quite the career out of making fun of her famous mother — both her television show and her radio show relied pretty heavily on Alexis and her co-host poking fun at most of the things Martha has done in her professional and private life.

Since she made a name for herself in show business, a lot about her life has changed significantly. Here's a look at what Alexis is like today.

In , Martha Stewart had her own version of Donald Trump's show The Apprentice — it had the same concept, just with Martha's brand and voice.

People reported that Martha Stewart's daughter, Alexis Stewart, and Charles Koppelman Martha's chairman of the board , would be joining Martha in the "conference room. Alexis herself was happy to be on board, saying in a statement that she felt honored to be part of the show. She also described herself as Martha's "original Apprentice," saying, "Having contributed to almost every aspect of her business empire, I know first hand what it will take for one of these sixteen candidates to win the competition and I'm not afraid to call them out in the conference room.
In , a year-old Alexis Stewart, then single, opened about her struggles with fertility treatments during an interview with Oprah Winfrey. She explained that, at around 36 years old, she decided that she really wanted a baby. But, describing that point in her life, she said, "It wasn't a good time.
Martha Stewart's daughter was honest about the treatments. She described the many medications she took every month and talked about how often she had to see doctors to get ultrasounds done.
She also said she had three egg implantations, but none of them worked. At the time, she revealed that she felt like she was "sort of back to square one. Not about having a baby, but what I have to go through to get there.

On the first episode of Whatever, Martha!
But then again not many people do like me. And then later …. And that is plural. Alexis and Jennifer met three and a half years ago in the halls of the Starrett-Lehigh Building, where Martha had offices since Jennifer started saying hello to Alexis when they passed in the halls. Jennifer perked right up. She had once wanted to be a singer, but her dad declined to put his considerable industry muscle behind her.
