Christie Brinkley Granted Divorce, Kids, Fondest Wish
I've refrained from writing about this simply because I wanted to wait until it was over and then do a wrap-up. Well, suddenly, it's over and I'm not prepared! Okay, here it is: Peter Cook is horny and Christie Brinkley has problems picking appropriate men to marry. I think that sums it up.
After dragging out her almost-ex's dirty laundry for all to see, including her children, the former model claims that a settlement in this case is all she ever wanted in the first place:
Triumphantly addressing the media after reaching a surprise settlement Thursday morning in her divorce trial from Peter Cook, Brinkley called the settlement "a very bittersweet moment." She added: "It really is the death of a marriage, but it's also I think a new start for all of us and I'm very pleased with the results today." [...]"I was here fighting for custody," she said. "I think a mother's greatest fear is somebody trying to take her children, trying to take custody of her children. That's what I was up against. And so I've won custody and decision-making, and that's really all I ever wanted."
When asked whether she has any regrets about the ugly trial going on as far as it did she said, "I really didn't have a choice. I was trying to settle the day I learned about the absolute truth about the facts, and I wanted to settle but unfortunately we could not reach an agreement until 6 o'clock this morning."
In the trial we learned more than we ever wanted to know about Peter's peter's activities, including the claim that he's had sex with thirty-five women (whether that is an accumulated total is still in question), he likes to pay for internet pr0n, and he was boinking a then eighteen-year-old in his office. Well. Makes for nice dinner-table conversation, doesn't it?
