On the list of ugly celebrity divorce battles, Christie Brinkley and Peter Cook have got to be near the top. They're married for ten years, he has sex with an eighteen year old, spends $3000 on porn, and posts video of himself engaged in self-pleasuring activities on the internet for God and his children to see. A vicious custody battle ensues (matched only by the circus of vitriole that is the Alec Baldwin/Kim Basinger debacle), and finally, Brinkley and Cook settle on a plan of action that largely involves a court mandated agreement to NEVER EVER speaking publically about their divorce in order to protect their children.
Sounds good to us. To Peter Cook, not so much. He sat down with Barbara Walters for an in-depth interview on ABC's 20/20, detailing his side of the shady proceedings. We kind of have to admire the balls of Barbara Walters to even do the interview knowing it violates a court order. We always knew she was a steel-hearted minx.
Here's a clip in advance:
