Andrew has expressed some regrets when it comes to his parenting of Alexis. “I think we did a poor job as parents," he revealed.

What happened with Donald Trump and Alexis Stewart?

Back in 2005, when Donald Trump was simply a reality star and not a politician, NBC tried to spinoff his series The Apprentice with one hosted by Martha Stewart, The Apprentice: Martha Stewart. However, Martha’s version, which saw her daughter Alexis Stewart by her side, did not take off and was canceled in 2006 due to low ratings. Despite Martha and Trump apparently having a longtime friendship, Trump reacted to the news with a scathing open letter to the Martha Stewart Living mogul, in which he skewers not just her show but also her daughter.

The letter read, in part, "It’s about time you started taking responsibility for your failed version of The Apprentice. Your performance was terrible in that the show lacked mood, temperament and just about everything else a show needs for success. I knew it would fail as soon as I first saw it—and your low ratings bore me out."

Martha responded in part, “The letter is so mean-spirited and reckless that I almost can't believe my long-time friend Donald Trump wrote it."

We can imagine their friendship likely did not recover, especially considering in a 2006 appearance on daughter Alexis’ radio show Whatever with Alexis and Jennifer, the two spoke about Trump unfavorably, referring to him as “evil.”

Martha also publicly supported Trump’s rival, Hillary Clinton, in the 2016 presidential race.
