Christie Brinkley Divorce Trial Update
"The Insider" was there as Christie Brinkley become emotional when she arrived to a Long Island, New York courthouse for the start of her and estranged husband Peter Cook divorce trial. "I really hoped with all my heart that we could've settled this out of court but since we are here to trial today, I'm going to save my for the courtroom," Christie said to the swarm of media just moments before tearing up. When Cook arrived, he told the press, "It's sad that we have to be here ... I never thought I'd get divorced." Diana Bianchi -- whom Cook admitted to having an affair with -- testified today but didn't speak to the press as she entered courthouse. Meanwhile, once the estranged couple was in the courtoom they avoided eye contact and in the opening statements, Brinkley's lawyer claimed that Cook spent thousands of dollars on Internet pornography and also claimed Christie had to pay for her own Mother's Day flowers because Cook would charge them to her account. It was then Cook's turn to take the stand, where he did state under oath that he had a sexual relationship with Bianchi, saying the affair lasted less than a year. He also said he bought her Victoria's Secret lingerie and a $2,000 watch. Alexa Ray Joel, the daughter of Christie and her ex-husband Billy Joel, testified today as well. She revealed an incident regarding a water leak, saying Cook allegedly stormed into the bathroom while she was taking a shower and yelled at her to get downstairs to "clean this mess." She claimed that she was not given a chance to get dressed before Cook forced her to go downstairs, and that he pushed her head into the leaked water and forced her to clean it up while she was naked. After court adjourned for the day, Brinkley addressed the press at a conference, saying, "You know, it's been a really long day, and I heard a lot of new things that I didn't know, and so I really think I'm not going to right now; I need some time to let it all absorb." Appearing overwhelmed, Christie deferred to her lawyer, who added, "It's been a really tough day as well as a long day, and we've got to be back tomorrow, so everybody needs to rest and the lawyers need to prepare, and we appreciate all the attention that all of you people have been giving."
