Martha Stewart is not holding back one bit in her new upcoming Netflix documentary, Martha, which hits the streaming platform later this month on October 30th — including a shocking admission about her previous marriage to Andrew Stewart.

In a new teaser for the doc, Martha is sharing some words of wisdom about marriage, saying, "Young women, listen to my advice, if you're married and your husband starts to cheat on you, he's a piece of s***. Get out of that marriage."

But then, a producer off-camera asks her, "Didn't you have an affair early on?" To which Martha admits, "Yeah, but I don't think Andy every knew about that."

Martha and Andrew were married Andrew in 1961, and the now ex-couple was married for 26 years until their separation in 1987, in which a divorce followed in 1990. They share one daughter together, Alexis Stewart, born in 1965.

Martha touches upon a number of different topics, aside from her marriage, including her time spent in prison and how she built her career back up after her release. She shares in the documentary preview, "The cookie cutter house and the cookie cutter life was not for me. I just could’ve been a miserable, has-been housewife, but I didn’t let that happen to myself. And I’m so happy I didn’t."
