Many women when going through a divorce, especially one that will be held up to the media microscope, want to hide away with their tears and their sorrow. They may curse their ex-husband but in Hollywood, a “no comment” is about the nastiest public comment people usually get. But ya gotta hand it to Christie Brinkley! She finds out that her husband, Peter Cook has been having an affair with a much younger woman and that he’s a complete pervert and she decides to let the world know jus what a pig this guy is! From the Daily Blabber,
“According to Access Hollywood, the model has gone to the NY Supreme Court and asked that the details from her divorce case be made public! She totally wants to screw her ex, Peter Cook, who’s little tryst with his 18-year-old assistant put a damper on their marriage.
In addition to his affair, it seems Christie’s ex had a thing for Internet porn, and he loved to check out swingers sites in search of some frisky women.
Apparently, the Uptown Girl is choosing to forego privacy to embarrass the hell out of her cheating husband”
Yeah, there are some women that ya just can’t screw with. And apparently, Christie Brinkley is one of them.
What had the makings of a terribly messy divorce has turned into an amicable situation between Christie Brinkley and her former philandering husband, Peter Cook. The two met in a Suffolk County courtroom today to come to an agreement concerning visitation rights for Peter. It seems that Brinkley and Cook were able to agree on a resolution, and both parties are ‘happy with the outcome’.

Christie Brinkley has filed for divorce from Peter Cook, two months after reports surfaced about his alleged affair with an 18-year-old employee, Cook’s lawyer confirmed Thursday.
“We are told that a divorce action has been commenced in Suffolk County, and we have agreed to accept service of those papers,” lawyer David Aronson told The Associated Press.
The divorce papers were filed in Suffolk County Court in Riverhead.
“I can neither confirm nor deny it,” Brinkley’s publicist, Elliot Mintz, reached in Los Angeles on Thursday morning, told the AP.
The 52-year-old supermodel announced in July that she and Cook, 47, her fourth husband, had separated. They were married in 1996, and have an 8-year-old daughter, Sailor. Cook adopted Brinkley’s son, Jack, now 11, from her marriage to developer Richard Taubman.
Aronson said Cook “regrets that this happened. He was hopeful that he and Ms. Brinkley would be able to work their way through this problem and put their marriage back together, but obviously she has decided otherwise.”
“He has instructed us that we are to handle this matter in as amicable and private a fashion as possible under the circumstances, and he hopes that everyone out there can respect the privacy of Christie and the children,” Aronson added.
The New York Post, citing anonymous sources, had first reported in Thursday editions that Brinkley had filed for divorce.
The couple’s separation exploded in scandal when Diana Bianchi, now 19, claimed Cook had seduced her shortly after hiring her to work at his architectural firm.
Aronson said his client learned of the divorce filing Wednesday. He said it was too early to say how the couple would divide their common property or to discuss the custody arrangement of their children.
“We’re not even near that yet,” Aronson said.
The couple’s relationship has become fodder for tabloids, especially in the Post, where Cook published a public apology to Brinkley in a Cindy Adams gossip column shortly after news of his alleged affair broke.
“This is an aberration,” Cook said through a lawyer, according to the column. “I’m sorry. I’m contrite. I’m stupid. Foolish. No excuse.”
“I love my wife. … For a lifetime I’ve tried to prove how much I love her,” Cook said, according to the column.
Cook had said in the Cindy Adams column that he would respect Brinkley’s wishes, whatever the result. “He hopes there’s no divorce,” that lawyer told the Post. “If she wants one, and he certainly hopes this doesn’t happen, but if — it will not be nasty.”
Brinkley was also previously married to Frenchman Jean-Francois Allaux and singer Billy Joel.
