Christie Brinkley '09 Divorce Bang

If you thought the divorce saga between Christie Brinkley and Peter Cook ended in 2008 … think again. It took just seven days before these two recent divorcees were at it again in the new year. Cook — whose $3,000-per-month Internet pornography habit and an affair with an 18-year-old assistant were revealed in a bitter summer court battle — is accusing Brinkley of deliberately withholding their son’s passport so he couldn’t go with dad to Egypt. The school field trip was scheduled for November 22, and Cook planned to join his son Jack, 13. Cook retains weekly visitation rights of Jack and his daughter Sailor, 10.

So just how often will we see these two battle it out in court? And what next mudslinging will need to be cleaned up with a gavel? These two need some amicable divorce role models like …. We’re drawing a blank, share your suggestions with us!

And its the kids that suffer…we wonder why our celebrity kids end up in tons of trouble. I truly hope these kids can grow up “normal” and know its not their fault Mommy & Daddy act younger then they are.

These two need some amicable divorce role models like …. We’re drawing a blank, share your suggestions with us!” Me! I met a man 25 years older, a CEO from Darien, CT with three children around my age and an heiress ex-wife. I didn’t want to remarry but my son wanted me to, and my soon to be second husband said that if I didn’t marry him he was breaking up with me. I didn’t want that either, so reasonsed that we both traveled often for work so it wasn’t like I’d be glued to the hip with him, my son would have step-sisters whom I liked very much, my grandmother could have my house, and my parents wouldn’t worry about me not having a husband. We had the same pre-nup as he had with his first wife. There’s a lot about him I admired, the wedding was terrific, but he never stopped dating after we were married. And while I wasn’t going to put up with that…I wouldn’t cause a scene because of my son. So I leased a beautiful house in and when he was on a business trip we moved out and told my husband he didn’t owe me anything. I knew that he’d use money as a carrote and a stick, so I just eliminated that possibility. We remained friendly for many years. My mother thought I was a fool for not taking any money, but I didn’t want bad feelings or anything that could drama around my son. Christie Brinkley is traumatizing her children and damaging her reputation…even though I am symphathetic with her…Peter Cook is a cad…she should remember that shame the father and shame the child. For the children’s sake she should find a amicable solution. They will be 18 before she knows it and then it will be their choice anyway…and if she keeps a child away from the father it will backfire on her.

I am disgusted by people who, and it is often the mothers with primary custody, use their children as pawns to punish their ex-husbands. I’ve known a few of these and they either subtly or overtly do their best to undermine the relationship between the children and their fathers. It’s a nasty game to play and the ones hurt the most are the children.

What Deburca said (By DeBúrca obj on 01/07/2009 10:22 pm). And BTW: a “school field trip” to where? Egypt? That’s some school.

I’ve always thought that Demi Moore and Bruce Willis showed real class with their divorce.  And Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith along with his ex-wife kept it classy too.  They even got a show out of it.
