BRINKLEY & COOK SLING INSULTS IN NEW COURT BATTLE
CHRISTIE BRINKLEY and her ex-husband PETER COOK faced off in court again on Wednesday (07Oct09) - both insisting the other has violated terms of their divorce settlement.
The former supermodel split from the businessman in 2008, insisting he was addicted to porn. She later filed for divorce when it came to light he had conducted an affair with his teenage assistant in 2004.
The warring couple endured a bitter court battle over the details of their divorce, which was finally settled in October last year (08).
Now, a year after they officially ended their union, the pair is battling each other through the legal system again - with both parties demanding that the other should be jailed for going against specific terms of the settlement.
In a Riverhead, New York courthouse on Wednesday, Cook's lawyer accused Brinkley of trying to destroy his relationship with their two children by purposely not delivering their son's passport when he was supposed to travel to Egypt with his father.
Cook stated, "She is doing everything she can to ruin my relationship with my kids. I am trying to move on with my life and I wish she would do the same."
Cook's lawyer added that Brinkley should face imprisonment, demanded Cook is given additional visitation rights, and that the blonde beauty should undergo anger management classes.
Meanwhile, Brinkley accused Cook of failing to stick to the rules of their settlement by talking about the divorce on U.S. TV as well as allowing his girlfriend to spend time with their kids.
Her lawyer told the judge, "We're here because Peter Cook filed what we believe is a frivolous application to the court. What Christie Brinkley wants is what's best for her children. She wants to get this resolved fairly and get it all behind her."
Brinkley is also calling for her ex to be put behind bars, as well as demanding he pay her legal fees. They are due back in court on Tuesday (13Oct09).

Christie had a bitter relationship with her biological father, who is now
deceased. Christie also cut Rick Taubman (her son's biological father) out of
her son's life. Look at her history and decide for yourself.
The term to use when one parent tries to turn the kids against the other parent
is "parental alienation." If Peter Cook is right that this is what Christie
Brinkley is doing, he should be concerned because parental alienation can have
devastating long-term effects for the kids (to turn a child against a parent is
to turn a child against hinself). On the other hand, Cook may be slinging mud
to deflect from his own poor behavior. I hope that the professionals can
discern the truth in this messy situation in order to protect the children.
