“He said, ‘Nobody will ever love you,’ ” the cookbook author and TV personality — who just released her memoir, Be Ready When the Luck Happens — confided to host Hoda Kotb. While wounded, the Barefoot Contessa chef, beloved by fans for her cozy cooking and cheery catchphrase “How good is that?” had the last laugh. “Do you know what I love?” she continued. “I love walking up Madison Avenue and somebody leans in and says, ‘I love you!’ It’s this great cosmic joke to me.”
Not everyone is feeling the love, however. Turns out fellow kitchen doyenne Martha Stewart has a serious beef with the Hamptons, N.Y.-based Ina, 76 — and the 83-year-old isn’t afraid to go public with it. (So much so that her rep went out of her way to soft-pedal her accusations!) “Martha never minces words, and as she’s gotten older, she feels there’s no reason to sugarcoat the truth,” an insider tells Star. “She didn’t get to where she is today by being nice.”
