Jul 10 2008Christie Brinkley gets the kids, house in divorce settlement
Christine Brinkley and Peter Cook reached a settlement early this morning in their highly-publicized divorce. Peter's lawyers quickly pushed for one after a damaging barrage of testimonies. Christie will get full custody of the children and all the real estate while Peter walks away with $2.1 million and visitation rights, according to NY Daily News:
The supermodel and the architect came to terms after eight days of salacious testimony that included revelations about Cook's affair with a teenage Diana Bianchi and his $3,000-a-month Internet porn habit.
Brinkley, who wept in courtroom but seemed elated as she left, called it a "very bittersweet moment...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 result today. I was here fighting for custody. I think a mother's greatest fear is somebody trying to take their children ... That is what I was up against. I have won custody and decision-making and that's all I ever wanted."
What a great American story about a bunch of people I don't care about pretending they're concerned about the kids, but really they just want the house in the Hamptons. Warms my freakin' heart. No, wait, I spilled coffee down my shirt. False alarm!

You'd think with all of the money that lawyer's making off of this airhead, he'd be able to afford a better suit... and those basketweave shoes were in style in the late 80s... just like Christie Brinkley.

$3000.00 a month porn habit . Jeez I thought my $1000.00 was a lot .

Since when does a woman have more rights to the kids than the man? If they are both the legal parents of the children, then both have rights. Her comment "I think a mother's greatest fear is somebody trying to take their children ... " is crazy considering the father has the exact same fears and the exact same rights.
Heck, we already know Brinkley is a nutcase, what makes her any more fit to have full custody than her porn addicted ex?

I have become bored. I am leaving. I leave the site in the hands of the next generation of posters.

Yeeeeeeeaaahhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Woooooooo-hooooooo!!! Way to go, Christie! Loot that fucking worthless dick. Use 'em & loot 'em. You go girl!!!!

I bet she's one of those types that has the pretty face, body...and sucks in bed.
If you're spending $3,000 on porn, you're deprived at home.
13. Jimbo - July 10, 2008 1:05 PM
$3k/month on INTERNET porn? wtf? My internet porn habit costs me nothing. Granted, the public library usually clears out once I show up, but still, there's no need to waste your money.

She continues to be a role model for young women.

Warning to husband #5 : If you slip up, she will stop at nothing to humiliate you publicly.
Hell hath no fury....

#4......No shit.....that suit definately came off the bargin rack at Mervyns......and the shoes scream Payless. I thought there was some sort of Jewish rule that the suit had to be Armani.
17. Fugyoself - July 10, 2008 1:16 PM
Bravo you dumb cunts Alice and Cindy. Celebrating yet another money grubbing whore getting richer from someone else's labor. Let's teach young girls that you are actually worthless in and of yourself.... BUT you can use your snizz to get paid. Good job whores, good job.
18. veggi - July 10, 2008 1:27 PM
@17- uh, she earned her own money..
What's with dudes pants?? Makes me think of:
Um...I'm sorry, it's the...it's the pleats. Mm. It's actually an optical illusion. It's the pattern on the pants. It's not flattering in the crotchal region. I'm actually taking them back right now. Taking them back to the pants store. Well I'm gonna go walk it off. Don't act like you're not impressed!!

People still pay for porn? How quaint
20. jake - July 10, 2008 1:33 PM
#17- your an idiot. She's made her fortune on her own. Her toolbox husband was lucky to get a couple million.
21. hpoe - July 10, 2008 1:34 PM
I'm just a bit curious.The Magazine HOLLYWOOD GOSSIP reported her profiles were found on the famous wealthy dating club M E E T R I C H. C O M last week and she was seeking her new guy there now! BTW, The girls there are really hot!
22. Crazy Old Bitch - July 10, 2008 1:34 PM
#13 Do you show up to the library with blow up dolls fully inflated and a bag full of dildos and lubes? That's what I do. The message is very clear. There is going to be some sex in this area, and it's going to happen soon. I like to fling myself into book shelves while fully possessed by the goddess of orgasms. And then do a little reading on tax law. Nothing kinky.

No ex-husband deserves to keep his money.
24. Giggles - July 10, 2008 1:38 PM
Uh, the guy who was trying to "steal" your children is the father that you chose to have them with.
25. Wendy - July 10, 2008 1:47 PM
No, it's the pervert sperm donor who's sitting in front of his computer all day whacking off.
26. Ted Mosby - July 10, 2008 1:52 PM
Let's just say she's a downtown girl in bed.
27. sammy - July 10, 2008 1:57 PM

Who will she divorce next? She is becoming a very wealthy person just from her divorces.
31. bj - July 10, 2008 3:15 PM

32. Hucky Ducky - July 10, 2008 5:01 PM
I said earlier I was leaving. Noone even says goodbye anymore? I am a staunch Republican for the love of Jesus and the New Crusade!
Fuck all of you then.
33. Anonymous - July 10, 2008 5:25 PM
Has she lined up husband #5 yet? I give it two months before she's married again.
34. Kim Lardassian - July 10, 2008 5:47 PM

35. Supernetuser - July 10, 2008 6:47 PM
At least he has visitation rights and gets to pay child support, yet another celebrity split.

Beautiful woman.. is she still stay with her husband.. someone posted on yahoo answers that she has a profile on the famous site b l a c k c e n t u r y...C o m you know it is a site for men to seek sexy girls.
42. Anon - July 11, 2008 9:06 AM
funny how when the woman has the money extortionate divorce demands or even 50/50 splits are wrong.
In fact even the pittance he's got (going of celeb world here not the real world) is too much.
A bit of double standards?
43. becozicare - July 11, 2008 10:38 AM
She is still beautiful, he is a man whore, plain and simple. He should not have any visitation rights considering what he did to Alexis, Billy's daughter.
#22: ROFL!!

Just think: In a few more years Janice Dickinson will look like THIS!
No, probably in 10-15 years Christie will look like Janice Dickinson does now, or like Amy Wino does now.
47. heidi Vice - July 14, 2008 11:32 PM
god she pisses me off, its a victory to deprive a father the right to make decisions about his childrens future, its a victory to have him left out, not see his kids and just get walked all over.
Its just a sign that depsperate petty people can be get the law courts to support disgraceful tatics to keep fathers margilnalised.
fucking bitch. she is a role model for vindictive trollops everywhere. I really hate this crackpot. bugger her, who cares about her money, the poor guy prolly just wanted to see his kids.
