Brinkley Divorce: Day Two (The Whisper)
Christie Brinkley already has begun testifying this morning about Peter Cook’s affair as part of the bitter, public divorce trial.
Popsquire, of course, will give you the best highlights later today, but here are two quotes that must be shared immediately:
1. Brinkley testified that she learned of Cook’s affair with 19-year-old Diana Bianchi at a high school graduation when Bianchi’s step father whispered in her ear: “That husband of yours just won’t knock it off. He’s having an affair with my teenage daughter and that bastard won’t knock it off and I have to come to you.”
2. Cook told the NY Post this morning that his ongoing public airing of his sordid secrets is worth it: “This is about parenting and remaining in my children’s lives in the same presence I’ve always had. I’m not going to let her take my children the way she has with the last two fathers.”
Popsquire’s perspective…
Family court judges generally focus on what is in the best interest of the kids when deciding custody cases. Although Popsquire’s heart goes out to Christie, humiliating Cook during this trial doesn’t seem best for the kids.
Plenty of men (and women) enjoy internet porn and, many marriages end because of infidelity. This doesn’t mean, however, that Cook will get less time with his kids or is a bad father in the eyes of the court. Bad husband, yes…bad father, not necessarily.
WOW!!! another post that leaves me speachless! imagine finding out that your husband is having an afair with a 19yr old girl while at a graduation like that from the girl father out of all people!!! OMG! my heart just went out to her all the way. of course if she makes the courts feel like she doesnt want him around because she wants to be revenge full its not going to look good, but i dont know how much worse it looks when he is sleeping with a 19YR OLD LITTLE GIRL!!! so gross… if i were that girls mom, oh god…
