On day two of Christie Brinkley’s explosive divorce trial, the former supermodel took the stand and tearfully testified about her husband’s affair with a teenager.
On Thursday, a day after her ex Peter Cook testified in detail about seducing high school senior Diana Bianchi in 2006, Brinkley told the court about the moment “her world was completely shattered.”
Brian Platt, a police officer and Bianchi’s stepfather, informed Brinkley of the affair at a 2006 graduation at Southampton High School where the model was a speaker.
He tapped her on the shoulder and said, “That husband of yours won’t knock it off. He’s having an affair with my teenage daughter.”
Brinkley said she looked at Cook and thought: “My God, it’s true. He did do that.”
“That was also the day that my world was completely shattered,” said Brinkley.
During his testimony Wednesday, Cook admitted he had given Bianchi, now 21, a $300,000 payoff and spent thousands of dollars on online porn. He also visited sites to look for anonymous sex partners.
Brinkley said she told Cook to give her his computer passwords “if you’ve got nothing to hide.” She found e-mails there from Bianchi and the porn sites Cook visited.
“I know a lot of men look” at pornographic sites, she said. But, in Cook’s case, she said, he was trying “to connect with people” in their neighborhood.
Brinkley, 54, and Cook, 49, were married in 1996.
She filed for divorce a decade later, in the midst of rumors about Cook’s affair.
