Martha Stewart, the American businesswoman and television personality, has become a minority co-owner of Swansea City, a Welsh soccer club that competes in England’s Championship, the club announced this week. Stewart joins a high-profile group of celebrity investors that already includes rapper Snoop Dogg and Ballon d’Or winner Luka Modric.

Stewart, 84, was present at Swansea’s 2-1 home victory over Wrexham last Friday, where she was initially a guest before her ownership role was confirmed. The win was part of a strong recent run that has provided the club with confidence as it works to climb the Championship standings.

In a statement released by club owners Brett Cravatt and Jason Cohen, they highlighted Stewart’s longstanding career and friendship with Snoop Dogg. “Martha is a close friend of Snoop Dogg and she came to the Wrexham game as our guest,” they wrote. “But we are delighted to confirm Martha, who has built a long and successful career as America’s leading homemaking and lifestyle expert, has followed Snoop and Luka Modric in becoming a minority owner of our football club.”

Stewart has not yet issued a public comment or posted about the investment on her social media platforms. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed by Swansea City.

Snoop Dogg became a minority owner of the club earlier this year in July, fueling a wave of attention around the team as celebrity investors continue to take stakes in British soccer clubs. Modric joined as a minority stakeholder in April, giving the club an unusual lineup of co-owners spanning entertainment and elite sport.

Swansea City has drawn increasing American interest from investors in recent years, reflecting broader trends of U.S. celebrities seeking ties to football clubs in the English league system. The club’s ownership group says these partnerships aim to strengthen global visibility and support the club’s ambitions both on and off the pitch.

Stewart’s involvement adds another layer of star power to Swansea’s ownership profile and underscores the growing crossover between entertainment figures and sports franchise ownership.
