In case you haven't heard, Christie Brinkley and cheating husband Peter Cook are trying to scratch each other's eyeballs out in a bitter divorce trial. Brinkley decided to divorce Cook after she found out he was having an affair with his then-assistant Diana Bianchi, who was 19 at the time.
But Brinkley says she forgives Bianchi, telling reporters that she feels Bianchi "was manipulated."
"I'd just like to say after two days of testimony that I can't help but
think about Diana Bianchi, and I want her and her family to know that I
feel really badly for them," said Brinkley. "I feel bad for her and I
forgive her completely."
People Magazine is reporting that Bianchi even approached Brinkley's daughter, Alexa Joel, outside the courtroom to apologize.
"Diana said, 'I am sorry for the pain I have caused you and your family,'" a source says. "Alexa then hugged her and said, 'We have all been through a lot.'"
Brinkley isn't so warm and fuzzy when it comes to Cook, though, accusing him of being a chronic philanderer and internet porn addict whose habit reportedly cost the couple $3000 a month.
The court battle is expected to get even more heated when the trial resumes on Monday as the focus shifts to the issue of child custody. Both Brinkley and Cook are seeking sole custody of children Sailor, 10, and Jack, 13.
