Martha Stewart’s adventure into online dating continues! Thursday on the Today Show, Martha came in to meet her chosen two (and Matt Lauer) from “thousands of profiles.” She said that the hardest part was reading them “and trying to figure out if there was something in common.”
Lauer wanted to make it perfectly clear that we shouldn’t have too high expectations from this experiment. “This is not about finding love or finding a life partner – this is about going on a couple dates.” Well! Now that our dreams of love have been squashed, let’s meet BACHELOR #1.
Stan: Filmmaker/director/writer. Worked with Martha once, a long time ago, and had a crush on her then. Lives near her. Likes to paint. Likes to “work with his hands.” Likes to eat and have a nice glass of wine. Loves dogs. Likes a Sunday afternoon, just sitting around. Likes summer.
Verdict: Super cute! When Lauer asked Stan if he liked Martha back when they worked together on commercials, he bashfully says, “Oh, I guess I shouldn’t say,” and then admits that he “always really liked Martha. How could you not?” Adorable. Stan also just randomly found her on Match and didn’t even know that this was a whole thing the Today show was doing. Fate.
