Brinkley Takes Stand Against Porn-Lovin' Ex

Posted Jul 8, 08 1:01 PM CDT in Crime & Courts,  Gossip 

(Newser) – Clean-cut supermodel Christie Brinkley let her soon-to-be ex-husband have it today in divorce court, denouncing his sexual misdeeds, including his affair with a teenage girl, and his addiction to porn. “I mean, sneaking out of the house when you've got beautiful, loving children there, to go choose instead to masturbate on the World Wide Web, just makes me worry about his judgment,” she said.

Brinkley’s marriage with architect Peter Cook exploded in 2006, when it was revealed that Cook not only had a young mistress and a porn addiction, but a webcam, which he used to broadcast himself while masturbating. Brinkley, meanwhile, painted herself as a saintly mother figure. “I haven't even thought about dating or anything like that,” she said, worried that a new beau would be a “threat” to her kids.
