Is it getting hot in here or is it just Martha Stewart?

Before summer comes to a close, the home decor guru, 82, surprised her fans with a new thirst trap photo. On Monday, Stewart posted a steamy picture of herself taking a dip in an Italian pool. (She’s staying at Hotel Castello di Reschio.)

In the caption, Stewart wrote, “The #castellodireschio is a 13-century castle remade by a very creative couple into a special resort of extraordinary quality. The heated pool in a stone tower was the perfect place for a new selfie! Dark. Candle lit. Mysterious. Relaxing before a massage and ablutions prior to @brunellocucinelli_brand founders 70th birthday in Solomeo.”

And of course, her followers couldn’t help but gush over the famous cook’s photo in the comments section. One person wrote, “Thirst trapping…I see you, Martha.” Another supporter said, “We live for Martha’s selfies,” alongside a heart-eyed emoji. 

This newly shared third trap comes nearly three years after Stewart graced our timelines with a sexy poolside snap. Back in the summer of 2020, Stewart posted a selfie of herself swimming in her backyard pool.

As for her overall look, the Sports Illustrated cover model rocked a black bathing suit, shimmery eyeshadow and curly blonde locks.

“My pool in East Hampton is the place to be on an 89-degree day!” Stewart captioned the photo. “When I built the pool thirty years ago it was designed to be as chlorine free as possible, with a natural concrete finish-no paint- and it fit in a long narrow space between the house and the property line.”

She continued, “I made it extra deep for diving and with no protruding steps so we could really race the length without worrying about obstacles. After all these years, It is a fun place to swim!!!”

Way to end summer on a high note, Martha.
