The ‘War of the Roses’ just got even more thorny.
Only one day after Christie Brinkley choked back tears on the Today show talking about her nasty split from hubby Peter Cook, he’s issued a statement calling her “dishonest.”
Cook issued a sharply-worded statement Wednesday, saying, "Christie was entirely dishonest about the circumstances surrounding the current court action which was precipitated by her and ... is doing further damage to our children ... I am also shocked by the blatant lies she told regarding our divorce proceedings of four years ago, including denying the indisputable fact that she fought for an open courtroom despite the warnings it would harm our children."
Cook also refuted Brinkley’s assertion that he is a "deadbeat dad," saying, "She does not want peace, she wants attention."
Cook also said Brinkley still wants revenge on him for cheating with a then 18-year-old Diana Bianchi, adding, "Clearly, Christie does not believe I was punished enough four years ago for my indiscretions in our marriage, but for the sake of our children I wish she would find a way to move on."
