Christie Brinkley and her ex, Peter Cook, filed for divorce in 2006, which was finalized in 2008 and since then, the two have been battling over custody of their two kids (a ruling that Peter initially lost, although he is allowed to maintain certain levels of contact with the kids.) The reason for the divorce though, was a whopper: Peter admitted that in 2004 he cheated on Christie with one of his teenaged employees. Teenage. As in, a teenager.

This past month the two have found themselves in court again because both parties claimed that the other was breaking rules in their settlement. Cook, who sleeps with teenagers, actually had the nerve to call his ex wife out on breaking rules. I’m pretty sure that makes him a sociopath.

However, the two have finally managed to work something out that seems fair to both of them, although it hasn’t really been revealed what that is. Christie’s lawyer did release this statement, though:

“Since Mr. Cook lost the custody battle in the divorce trial, he has staged a relentless smear campaign against Ms. Brinkley. Ms. Brinkley is completely vindicated. The parties’ settlement approved by the judge today does not grant any of the requests in Peter Cook’s vindictive requests including, among others, his request for Ms. Brinkley to undergo anger management or for the appointment of a parenting coordinator.”

Hahahah! Oh, Peter Cook, bedder of teenagers, you’re hilarious! LOL! You wanted Christie Brinkley to attend anger management classes, for what? Displaying anger at the man who ruined their marriage and relationship with his children so he could get up on some underage girl? Oh, that is rich.

Here’s hoping that the kids, and Christie, are able to move on from this whole fiasco in a healthy and happy way.

Christie Brinkley is past the phase of dating really young dudes but she has John Mayer in her sites as the perfect match for her daughter — the one she had with Billy Joel, as if you couldn’t tell — Alexa Ray Joel.  Personally, I don’t think anyone with four divorces under their belt should be fixing people up, and I really don’t think anyone should be fixing up a loved one with John Mayer.

John Mayer has a history of not committing, talking to the media about his relationships in graphic detail, and being addicted to Twitter — and then there’s his music. 

Which really begs the question:  Why does Christie Brinkley hate her daughter?

This image was the first thing my eyes focused on after rolling out of bed this morning.  If you applied for the weekend writing gig here at Evil Beet, you need to be aware of the occupational hazards.  It’s all fun and games until Linda Hogan has her support hose and pigtails on.  As if I wasn’t embarrassed enoughfor Linda , there’s a picture in the photo gallery of her kissing her stud.  She doesn’t need to read He’s Just Not That Into You, nor does she need to see the movie.  That picture is worth six words, Linda.  Pay attention.

Anyway, all the celebs are hanging around Park City, Utah, for the Sundance Film Festival.  Paris has been hanging around with Aubrey O’Day and her dog purse.  I can’t decide which accessory I find more offensive.  Christie Brinkley has been rejoicing with all her free stuff and Kevin Bacon has perfected his “I’m broke” face.  Danielle Fishel, super cute as Topanga on Boy Meets World, looks like a former Miss America and Zoe Kravitz goes to the top of my “Most Beautiful People Ever” list.

If you thought that the finalization of their divorce last week would mark the end of the Brinkley-Cook drama, then you clearly have no idea how things work among the rich and famous.

Peter Cook sat down with Barbara Walters (really, Barbara? There’s an election going on, ya know) to talk shit about Christie, which was in violation of of a court order preventing either side from publicly talking about their marriage.

The interview is scheduled to air Friday, and Christie filed for a temporary restraining order against Cook, to prevent him from his scheduled visitation with the kids this weekend. Apparently she didn’t want the kids to be exposed to the interview.

It was denied by a judge.

“It was a silly application,” said Cook’s lawyers. “Obviously, there are TVs all over the place, and Mr. Cook had no intention of exposing his children to any interview.”

Cook agreed to take the kids out of town for the weekend to avoid the hullabaloo that will likely surround the airing of the interview.

So will there be no penalty for Peter Cook for violating the court agreement?????

There had better be!!!

Oh, I’m so happy.

I’m finally back in Seattle, where it’s pouring, and I just couldn’t be happier to be home. Thanks to the awesome ice wrap Tiffany got me in NYC, my foot was feeling a lot better and I was able to hobble through two airports with three bags and a dog without the use of a wheelchair. Phew! I have now been reunited with my cats and my couch and I’m just delighted.

To make life even better, the Christie Brinkley/Peter Cook divorce trial started out with a bang.

Cook admits that he paid Diana Bianchi — the teenager he was sleeping with — around $300K to keep her from pressing a sexual harrassment suit (or talking to the press, I assume). It turns out Christie found out about the affair when Diana’s stepfather told her about it. Um, how did Diana’s stepfather know about this? Like, how do you wind up having that kind of a conversation with your stepfather? I’m sure the sudden appearance of $300K had something to do with it, but still. Very weird.

He was also apparently a huge dick to Christie’s daughter with Billy Joel, Alexa Ray:

Alexa Ray Joel, 22, testified that Cook treated her well before he married her mother. But she said he was constantly on her case afterward, chastising her “if I chewed too loud” and criticizing her piano playing.

“He was just very critical of me in general,” said Joel, a singer, songwriter and pianist.

When her lengthy shower caused a leak in the kitchen below in 2003, Cook stormed into the bathroom and demanded she mop up immediately, Joel testified. When she got downstairs wearing only a towel, he pushed her head into a bucket and yelled, “You clean this up!” she said.

PLUS, Peter Cook spent about $3,000 a month on pornographic Web sites in 2005. Holy shit! Does he know how much porn is FREE online now??? What the hell are you spending $3,000 a MONTH on?? That’s just silly.

The couple had a pre-nup, so right now the primary battle is over custody of the children. Christie thinks he should get no custody, while Peter thinks he should get at least joint custody.

Looking forward to more of this!

Breaking! Kevin Federline may not be the model father you’d previously believed him to be. Well, at least you were right about the model part. [PopCultureWhore]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Christie Brinkley is such a rock star. [Teddy and Moo]

When asked to speak about the brief meeting with her creepy, philandering excuse for a husband, Brinkley said “I’d rather not comment. I just don’t want to fuel this anymore.”

Awww. She’s a class act, that Christie. She even made everyone who works in the architecture firm owned by her creepy, philandering excuse for a husband sign an NDA so they can’t gab to the media about his creepy philandering.

Unfortunately, that Billy Joel clone she totes around the Hamptons hasn’t had comparable media training.

Cheer up, Christie! So he was sleeping with a woman less than half your age. At least he wasn’t sleeping with your brother.
