Christie Brinkley: 'I Would Never Get Married Again'
"I would never get married again," Brinkley tells the July issue of 'Ladies Home Journal' magazine. "With what I know, I don't see why anyone would get married." Brinkley says after four failed marriages, she's lost all faith in the scared union. "I totally believe in true love, and I think couples should celebrate their love over and over again, but right at the beginning of a relationship, I would formalize an exit strategy." "I feel like I should apologize to everybody for them having to read all that tawdry stuff, and having it delivered to their kitchen tables when their kids are around, you know?" she says, making reference to her husband's affair with his teenage assistant and his addiction to porn. Brinkley adds she wishes the divorce case wasn't as open as it was but: "Divorce courts in New York are always open to the public, and I didn't want special treatment." Even though she won't be getting married again, Christie explains she'll be looking for love but just not she's totally ready: "I haven't always followed my own advice, but I've always believed that you've got to be whole before starting with someone new" "You've got to find that inner peace. I'd have to feel, 'Okay, the time is right to be open to that again.'"
