Stewart Says It's Saddest Holiday Ever
NEW YORK - Facing trial on a stock-trading scandal, Martha Stewart says her legal woes have curtailed her holiday plans.
"It's the saddest holiday ever. It's an unwelcome time for me, very unwelcome," she told CNN's "Larry King Live" in a taped interview scheduled to air Monday. "I generally have a Christmas party but this year I'm only having a small family party."
Stewart's criminal trial on securities fraud and conspiracy charges is scheduled to begin Jan. 12.
In excerpts provided to The Associated Press, Stewart, 62, denies any wrongdoing, but said the approaching trial has caused her a lot of pain.
"You have no idea how much worry and sadness and grief it causes," she says.
Despite the ordeal, Stewart says she hasn't allowed herself to get angry.
"You can't let that get to you because then, again, your functionality, your daily chores can't get done," she says. "And my legal team has inspired me to behave in an appropriate fashion."
pooooooooooooor 'lil Martha...
