Christie Brinkley's tip for the
Alex Rodriguez's estranged wife
Cynthia?
"I think that the best advice I could give Ms. Rodriguez is to hire [my lawyer] Bob Cohen," Brinkley, 54, told New York's
Daily News Tuesday after another contentious day in court with ex
Peter Cook.
On the fourth day of their divorce trial, a court-appointed psychologist said both Brinkley and Cook, 49,
need professional help.
Dr. Stephen Herman called Cook a narcissist who "needs constant reassurance that he is a terrific guy." (He also said Brinkley deserves full custody because Cook's unrealistic expectations could "cause great harm" to their children, Jack, 13, and Sailor, 10.)
Brinkley — who's been wed four times — "needs to start working on deeper issues," including "her choice of male figures," Herman said.
The day wasn't complete without a little mudslinging.
Brinkley testified that she would have never married Cook if she knew the details about his 1982 drug arrest.
She said he told her — a week before they wed — that the arrest happened in New York City.
But Brinkley told the court it took place "in a gay truck stop." (Cook laughed at that claim.)
Cook's lawyer, Norman Sheresky, accused Brinkley of seeking to "publicly flog" her ex, as Brinkley fought to make the trial public.
"Absolutely not," Brinkley replied. "I didn't want this trial. It's humiliating for all of us. ... I really, really wanted to settle this."
