As one jilted spouse to another, Christie Brinkley has some advice for Cynthia Rodriguez: hire one hell of a good attorney. Brinkley’s lawyers have been smearing ex-husband Peter Cook for the better part of a week; and some crazy salacious details have leaked out. Like his $3000 a month porn habit, the ridiculously terrible way he treated his children, and that he’d slept with over 35 women in his life. Brinkley is obviously spitting mad, and there’s a heated debate over who the bad guy really is: Cook for being a world class cheater, or Brinkley for dragging him through the mud – in front of their children. I still think he sounds like total scum.
Christie Brinkley’s tip for the Alex Rodriguez’s estranged wife Cynthia? “I think that the best advice I could give Ms. Rodriguez is to hire [my lawyer] Bob Cohen,” Brinkley, 54, told New York’s Daily News Tuesday after another contentious day in court with ex Peter Cook.
On the fourth day of their divorce trial, a court-appointed psychologist said both Brinkley and Cook, 49, need professional help. Dr. Stephen Herman called Cook a narcissist who “needs constant reassurance that he is a terrific guy.” (He also said Brinkley deserves full custody because Cook’s unrealistic expectations could “cause great harm” to their children, Jack, 13, and Sailor, 10.) Brinkley — who’s been wed four times — “needs to start working on deeper issues,” including “her choice of male figures,” Herman said.
The day wasn’t complete without a little mudslinging. Brinkley testified that she would have never married Cook if she knew the details about his 1982 drug arrest. She said he told her — a week before they wed — that the arrest happened in New York City. But Brinkley told the court it took place “in a gay truck stop.” (Cook laughed at that claim.)
Cook’s lawyer, Norman Sheresky, accused Brinkley of seeking to “publicly flog” her ex, as Brinkley fought to make the trial public. “Absolutely not,” Brinkley replied. “I didn’t want this trial. It’s humiliating for all of us. … I really, really wanted to settle this.”

Brinkley, by most accounts, was pretty much a supermom. It really shows that you can put your entire heart and soul into a family and a marriage, but if your partner is a louse, it won’t amount to much. It’s pretty sad for everyone involved. And it sounds like Cynthia Rodriguez is certainly in a similar mindset. She spent over $100,000 of A-Rod’s money before filing for divorce.

While I would agree a woman who has had 4 marriages would know a good divorce lawyer when she sees one, I am sure C-Rod’s 4 attorney’s will handle the case to the best of their ability.
Let us not forget Miss Christy left Billy Joel for Taubman who she met while sking (the were in that helicopter crash together) she rushes into a divorce and quicky marriage immediately gets pregnant (such a smart move since you have already proved you are a bit fickle) then says he was a con artist. The wedding was ridiculous, on skis and then they swooshed down the moutain to their reception. ack.
Isn’t she saying similar things about Cook? The man was sleeping with the babysitter. He is a pig. But she is more concerned, it seems, with her image than the well being of her children. Two of which she has with Cook.

why are they making such a big deal out of sleeping with 35 people? I think that’s a little more common than people like to admit….
-
For her age Christie is one hell of a Beautiful Lady.

It was Cook who dragged that entire family through the mud by HIS actions.
-
It was BRINKLEY that decided to make all of this public!
-
Apparently her move worked.

“All right, I’m immediately suspicious of “supermoms.” No such thing exists.”
Quite wrong. My mom’s no celebrity, but she was (and is) a supermom. She was always there for me and my brother, was loving (but not smothering) and supportive to us both. We are both in our 40’s now and still have a great relationship with her. She’s been a wonderful grandma to my nieces, as well. My house was always the one my friends wanted to hang out at, and they all “adopted” both of my parents because they were so great with them.
Oh, and as for not having her own life? Tell that to her boss of the past 20+ years, or my father, with whom she will be celebrating 50 years of happiness in a little over a year.
Just because you haven’t seen examples of a “supermom” doesn’t mean they don’t exist. Sadly, there just are not enough of them.

All right, I’m immediately suspicious of “supermoms.” No such thing exists. What they’re really talking about is women who are so overly involved in their children’s life that they cease to have one for themselves and their marriage suffers. As always, I feel bad for the kids that have to live with a narcissistic father and a mother who’s so insecure that she feels she needs a man in order to be happy. Is that any way to live?
