In keeping with my new shallow approach, I noticed this celeb
item on Yahoo today: Let's see, "I'm married to Christie Brinkley,
but I'm addicted to skin pics and I'm porking the 18 yr old daughter
of a local police officer"...makes sense to me,

Brinkley split is newest image-crushing NY divorce

By LARRY NEUMEISTER, Associated Press WriterFri Jul 4, 6:04 PM ET



When the media capital of the world meets a celebrity divorce, it's a breakup made in tabloid heaven. So the city that has hosted the spectacular splits of Woody Allen, Liza Minnelli and Rudolph Giuliani now is feasting on the salacious details of model Christie Brinkley's fourth marital breakup.

"It's a freak show," celebrity divorce lawyer Raoul Felder said Friday of the latest chapter in divorce — New York-style — under the media's microscope.

The collapse of the 10-year union of the former Sports Illustrated swimsuit model and architect Peter Cook is being recounted in slow motion in a Central Islip courtroom on Long Island, not far from the Hamptons home where the couple had lived together.

The first day of a trial settling several million dollars in assets and custody of their children, ages 10 and 13, featured the 49-year-old Cook tearfully recounting a pornography obsession and his affair with an 18-year-old mistress. The mistress also testified.

A day later, Brinkley took the witness stand to recall being told of the affair by the teenager's stepfather just after she had delivered a high school commencement speech in Southampton in June 2006.
"That husband of yours won't knock it off. He's having an affair with my teenage daughter," she recalled being told by the man, a Southampton Village police officer.

Brinkley, 54, said she looked at Cook, shaking his head even though he had not yet heard the allegation, and thought: "My God, it's true. He did do that."

Newsday called it "Beauty & the Beast." The Daily News dubbed it "Lady And The Louse." In the New York Post, it was "XXX files."

For the public, it's familiar territory, the latest in a series of breakups exposing the dark side of the not-always glamorous life of the rich and famous.


...Felder said the divorce of Brinkley and Cook carries two lessons: "Don't marry a celebrity and listen to your lawyer."
He called the divorce trial "a case about nothing" because relatively few assets are at stake, considering the size of Brinkley's fortune, and the sexual exploits being revealed were unlikely to affect the outcome.
"The thing started as a tragedy and turned into a farce," he said. "Why would anybody want this public when they have children?"
He added: "They don't seem to realize that the only audience that counts is the guy in the black robe."

Even before Brinkley vs. Cook winds down, it finds itself shrinking on tabloid front pages, pushed out by reports of the newest happily ever-after celebrity marriages sliding down the chute.

This time, baseball star Alex Rodriguez and Madonna get starring roles, with reports that a relationship between them has spoiled their marriages, though Rodriguez has stayed mum and Madonna's publicist has denied a romance. Stay tuned. (This version CORRECTS Brinkley's age to 54, instead of 52.)

Christie is fooked up. Why in the world would she subject her children to all this. Seems to me publicly humiliating her hubby is more important to her than her children's well being.

She seems to want to hurt her husband the father of her children. It is sad when revenge is more important than your children.
