Martha Stewart has deleted social media posts showing her dressed as a homeless person for Halloween after the costume drew backlash.
Stewart, who was born in Jersey City and grew up in Nutley, shared photos showing her holding a sign that read, “I am hungry, help me!”
She later apologized and said the costume was intended to raise awareness.
Stewart now lives in Bedford, New York, and previously lived in East Hampton, New York, and Westport, Connecticut.
She also has a restaurant, The Bedford by Martha Stewart, at Foxwoods Resort Casino in Ledyard, Connecticut.
