Christie Brinkley caught her husband cheating with his 19-year-old personal assistant!
That’s the shocking story behind the supermodel’s sudden marriage breakup, uncovered exclusively by The ENQUIRER. Christie, 52, dumped 47-year-old husband Peter Cook after a dramatic confrontation between Cook and the stepfather of his teenage mistress right in front of Christie, according to sources.
"The girl’s stepdad is a local cop in Southampton (N.Y.) and he initially went to Cook and told him to end the romance," a source told The ENQUIRER. "But nothing happened and then the stepfather found out where Christie and Peter were going to be at an event."
"He went up to both of them and said right in front of Christie, ‘If I were not worried about getting my pension, you’d be a dead man.’ He added, ‘Stop dating my daughter.’"
The next day, Christie threw Peter out of the house, according to the source.
Cook, an architect, met the young woman at a toy store last year when she was 18 years old, sources say.
The ENQUIRER has identified her as Diana Bianchi. She is now 19 and is attractive with dark hair.
Cook is Brinkley’s fourth husband, and the couple has been married nearly 10 years. They have a daughter, Sailor, 8. They are also raising son Jack, 11, from Brinkley’s 11-month marriage to real estate developer Richard Taubman.
Brinkley also has a third child -- daughter, Alexa, 20, from her 9-year marriage to singer Billy Joel.
According to the sources, after meeting the girl at the toy store, where she worked as a clerk, Cook then hired the girl as his "personal assistant" at his architect firm.
Said a close source: "He wined and dined her. She’s an aspiring singer and he helped her make connections in the music business."
Joseph Bianchi, Diana’s uncle, told The ENQUIRER: "It’s an emotional time for Diana and she’s really dealing with a lot right now."
When contacted by The ENQUIRER, Cook did not deny the affair, saying: "I am happy to reply that I love my wife, I love my children, I have never stopped loving and caring for them, and we are still a family."
Brinkley’s publicist Elliot Mintz announced the couple’s separation on July 11, saying in a statement: "Her immediate concern is for her children."

I'm happy to see a famous woman not putting up with her husbands cheating, it's one strike and you're out. I know that it must of been hard for her seeing that she's a little bit older but, she's still an attractive woman. When I look at people like Cindy Crawford and Victoria Beckham I wonder if it's low self esteem that makes them stay with their cheating hubbys

[DirtyPool]

OH SNAP!!! I feel bad for the kids but I love a scandal of this sort.

I agree. It is refreshing to see a woman hold her head high and kick the cheating scum out.

I live near them - can't stand either of them and he is a bigger princess than she is....


LOL.... I just told my beau about this thread and he's like "I know" - one of his co worker's was in the Verizon store in Brighampton when she came in to cancel all the cellular service they had that he uses.

Aww... I'm not crazy about her but I admit I feel for her.
Damn, she's a social bunny too - everyone is just going to look at her with that "we know" look.

I imagine it had something to do with his being an obnoxious drunk.

I just thought he became that after they split.

[Bellatheball]

The most shocking thing about this is that she was 44 when she had her last kid. Crap.
