Christie Brinkley’s skirt-chasing husband has a penchant for Internet porn and loves to troll swinger sites, the supermodel will claim at their divorce trial.
The allegations will be the first damaging details to come out against Peter Cook since his affair with a Long Island teenager was made public two years ago – and they could devastate the wayward architect when the couple’s divorce trial begins on July 2.
Cook’s lawyer confirmed that Brinkley is ready to make the shameful claims in Suffolk County court, but would not offer up anything else. “I don’t want to make public her accusations,” said Cook’s lawyer, Norman Sheresky. “She’s making a lot of accusations.”
A law guardian for the couple’s two children yesterday asked a Long Island judge to bar the media from the courtroom during the trial so the kids wouldn’t have to hear about Daddy’s dirty deeds.
“What kind of father engages in such atrocious behavior that he’s embarrassed to have a public trial?” asked Brinkley’s celebrity lawyer, Robert Cohen.
Cohen refused to discuss Brinkley’s cybersex claims and declined to comment when asked if Cook had had any other extramarital affairs.
The bad blood between the couple continued to flow after the hearing, when Sheresky slammed Brinkley as a lousy parent for wanting the press to be in the courtroom to hear the details of his affair with a teenage girl and his alleged Internet porn prowling.
But Cohen countered that she needs to restore her reputation and correct “innuendoes, rumors and falsehoods” leaked to the media about her, and that Cook’s “atrocious behavior” in his much-publicized affair with assistant Diana Bianchi “is only the tip of the iceberg.”
Law guardian Theresa Mari of Huntington argued in her court motion that it would harm the couple’s kids, Sailor, 9, and Jack, 12, if the family scandal were reported in the media.
“The mother, supposedly a good mother, wants to have the court open – you go figure that out,” said Sheresky outside the courtroom. “The father obviously wants the court closed. There are two young kids in this case, and there are charges of adultery. Their mother probably told them everything. I don’t know of any parent who has made an application to keep the court open. To me, that’s not good parenting.”
Supreme Court Justice Mark Cohen said he hoped to issue a decision today on admitting the press.
After the hearing, Brinkley said, “I’ve always hoped to be able to settle this matter privately, outside the courtroom.”
When asked about her children, Brinkley, 54, responded, “They’re doing fine.”
Cook, 49, declined to comment.
The couple split after his affair with the then-19-year-old Bianchi was revealed. Brinkley filed for divorce in July 2006.
