Miss Brinkley won sole custody of her two youngest children and Cook caved in on his demand to keep three yachts and several investment properties in exchange for a £1million settlement.
After a week of washing their dirty laundry in public, the couple and their lawyers spent the night huddled in a Long Island hotel hammering out a deal.They finally sealed the agreement at 6.15am yesterday with Miss Brinkley, 54, retaining sole custody of their two children and Cook, 49, receiving the cash.
Courthouse sources said that Cook agreed to settle fearing further embarrassment about his sex life.
Two private detectives hired by Miss Brinkley had been due to give evidence yesterday, followed by two of Cook’s ex-girlfriends.
The couple, who were married for ten years, had a prenuptial agreement but fought over a portfolio of properties she had bought for Cook to renovate.
Under the terms of the agreement Miss Brinkley, who has a £15 million estate in the jet set New York resort of the Hamptons, keeps 18 houses and the boats. source
