Back in 2020, Stewartopened up to PEOPLE about her belief that there’s no oneperfect way to be a parent.
“I was busy,” she said of her own experience raising Alexis. “At the time, Alexis was going to school in Westport, and I was commuting to New York. After I gave up stock-brokering, I started an at-home catering business, which was extremely time-consuming.”
“One thing Alexis learned from that was how to cook. She’s a phenomenal cook and baker. I tried to involve her in everything, but the minute she could leave home and go to boarding school, she did,” she continued. “Our relationship has always been a difficult mother-daughter relationship. Difficult, but she would do anything for me, and I would do anything for her.”
