LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Lawyers for Christie Brinkley hit a Suffolk County court yesterday, requesting a temporary restraining order against the supermodel's ex husband, Peter Cook.

Brinkley's lawyers made the motion, following news that the architect sat down for an interview with "20/20" host Barbara Walters set to air this Friday. During the interview, Cook spoke about his affair with an 18-year-old assistant and said he hoped that if the supermodel saw his interview with Walters, she would take "time to heal herself."

While attorneys for Brinkley could not be reached on Thursday, legal counsel for Cook confirmed the hearing to Access Hollywood.

"Attorneys for both Mr. Cook and Ms. Brinkley were present in court yesterday and this issue was resolved," Cook's lawyer said in a statement. "Christie Brinkley sought a restraining order to stop Peter Cook from having visitation [with] the kids this weekend as he was originally scheduled to have. She wanted the kids to be [with] her for the weekend as to not expose them to the Barbara Walters interview set to air. The judge denied Christie's request. Mr. Cook agreed he'll take the kids away for the weekend and that the will not expose them to the Barbara Walters interview."

    If the order demands silence on court proceedings, then he is in contempt of the court. That's ridiculous to allow him to speak on national television about this. The quicker they grow up, the more time their kids will have as kids.

    When the kids are grown up they will hear about all of the mess anyway, and will probably read about it in somebody's tell-all book. Christie, please...let it go! Think about the effect your attitude is going to have on your children. It's just not worth it.

  • For heaven's sake, Christie, go find some other jacka$$ to marry you and shut the hell up! You ran your mouth enough in court to keep your kids in therapy for years, and now you don't want him to comment. Gee, I wonder why she can't keep a man.

  • For heaven's sake, Christie, go get some other jacka$$ to marry you and quite whining. You ran your mouth for days in court, giving your kids reason to be in therapy for years. Get by it already!

    Gawd - she needs to be like those dolts on the old Love Connection show.... where their judgement is clearly so bad that they let the audience pick. I wonder what Chuck Wollery is up to these days?? Maybe he should be her personal dating coach. Back in 2 and 2!
