Christie Brinkley’s ex-husband Peter Cook, 60, engaged to 21-year-old student

The 60-year-old proposed to girlfriend Alba Jancou while holidaying in Santorini, Greece last month. According to Page Six, Cook popped the question to the 21-year-old in front of a church with a six-carat diamond ring from Glenn Bradford. The architect told the website: ‘We consider ourselves incredibly lucky to have found, in each other, our soulmate. ‘We are looking forward to many years of wedded bliss!’

Cook first met supermodel Brinkley in the 70s, but after being reintroduced by a mutual friend, they fell in love and announced their engagement in August 1996. They married a year later and went on to have their son Jack in 1995 and their daughter Sailor in 1998. However, their marriage came to a dramatic end in 2006 when Christie, 65, discovered he was having an affair with 19-year-old office clerk Diane Bianchi.

He was also accused of having an affair with another former employee, Samantha Cole, who was 18 at the time. Cook went on to marry Suzanne Shaw, but they divorced in 2014 after two years of marriage. Peter isn’t the only star to get engaged to a woman 39 years younger than him recently – Dennis Quaid, 65, is set to marry 26-year-old Laura Savoie.

R16, there was some financial scandal, I can’t remember what. Actually, I went to look for it and just got lots of results for his cocksmanship and affairs. But I swear there was something about him embezzling or something.

Basically, he’s a piece of garbage. A formerly handsome piece of garbage.

If Cook truly had any money, he easily find a more attractive 21 year old. This looks like the girl has the money. Hope she gets a prenup

Peter tried to get my Billy Joel money, but I had photos

Jancou's parents are big deal gallerists. Aren't they embarrassed over this shit? She must hate her parents to be pulling this stunt. She looks like her mother, Tanya Bonakdar, with the Jay Leno chin.

His daughter, Sailor, is the same age as his wife-to-be. Narcissists truly have no shame.

A man always want someone a half or a third of his own age.

Be very suspicious if you're his age and he's 'interested'.

Does Peter Cook have any money that didn't come from Christie?

I know he's got an architecture firm or something, but it sounds like he's just a pseudo-celebrity front for people who do the actual work. You know, "hey hire us and you might get to meet Christie Brinkley at our annual clients party" or some such.

by Anonymousreply 35October 30, 2019 2:57 AM

I remember when Christie and Peter got together in the 90s, it was the greatest love story ever. Poor Christie was recovering from her ill-fated marriage to Jack’s father and Peter was her savior. Whatever happened to Jack’s father, anyway? Christie pretty much banished him from the planet. I imagine she banished Peter too. I wonder what the kids think of all of this marital chaos as they were growing up.

How many times has slut momma Brinkley been married?

by Anonymousreply 37October 30, 2019 3:05 AM

He didn't "have" a son with Christie. Jack's biological father is Richard Taubman. Christie bought him out and the price was his parental rights. Cook later adopted him. Jack spends his time vacationing all over the world on his mother's money.

by Anonymousreply 38October 30, 2019 3:08 AM

[quote]Before his marriage to Brinkley Richard was formerly married to Elizabeth Freeman for three years. The couple separated due to Richard’s bad temper and violence towards Elizabeth who was his first wife. His ex-wife Elizabeth mentioned in their divorce papers that money was the issue with Taubman spending freely up to $61,000 a month and would not keep to a budget.

[quote]In 1994 December 22nd, Richard and Christie tied the knot. Sadly, Christie filed for divorce barely a year after they got married. At the time of their marriage, Christie was 40 years old, while Richard was 46. She left Richard seven weeks after their son was born, Jack Paris Brinkley Cook.

I recall something about his spending and his not having the money to support that kind of lavish spending. Apparently, he was poor and had married her under false pretenses of something - though I freely admit I could be making that all up.

Besides Alexa Joel, are any of Brinkley's other children gainfully employed?

Spending and living off of their mother's money doesn't count.

I suspect that it's not Alba's face that attracted Peter Cook. More likely it's her youthful spunkiness and endurance. Cook admitted to spending $3000 per month on porn to keep himself stimulated while he was married to Christie Brinkley.

Oh please R49. It has nothing to do with the woman. He could have the hottest, most sexually adventurous and fun woman in the world and he’d still cheat. It’s not about them, it’s about him. He’s pathological.

Howard Stern always used to say, behind every gorgeous woman is a guy who's sick of her. I think he actually used to cite Billy Joel and Christie as an example.

by Anonymousreply 51October 30, 2019 4:20 PM

Narcissists almost always have some weird sexual hangup or compulsion that keeps them from being able to experience real intimacy. How do you even spend $3000 a month on porn? Hookers, now that I could understand.

Well, Howard Stern re-proposed to his now-wife a few weeks ago on Jimmy Kimmel, so a divorce could be on the horizon. Those kind of stunts are usually predicated on something awry, whether it's celebrities, Real Housewives, or your sister.

by Anonymousreply 57October 30, 2019 4:56 PM

At least Howard's hot wife didn't want children. That seems to be a pitfall of these trophy wife marriages, the guy signs on for a freewheeling hot chick and then she eventually insists on getting pregnant. I guess we can expect another brood of Cook kids.

by Anonymousreply 58October 30, 2019 5:23 PM

Claims she didn’t want kids yet fosters dozens of cats. Sublimates innate desire to mother with homeless animals.

I was a huge fan of Howard in the late 80s-early 90s. If you had told me back then what he would become, I would never have believed it.
