Christie Brinkley’s divorce trial does not seem to be getting any easier, reports E! News.

The former supermodel took the stand during the second day of testimony in her public divorce from her soon to be ex-husband Peter Cook. Brinkley testified and recounted her confrontation with Cook, after learning he was having an affair with his 18-year-old secretary.

“I just said to Peter, ‘How could you?’” Brinkley said on the stand.

E! News further reports that Brinkley testified that she learned of her husband’s affair with Diana Bianchi from the teen’s police officer stepfather. Upon hearing about her husband’s infidelity, Brinkley described the moment as “the day my world was completely shattered.”

Brinkley continued to say that she was in shock. “I just started driving away from my perfect life. I thought I had the picket fence. We were happy.”

Christie Brinkley wants her divorce court proceedings to be made public, reports gossip columnist Perez Hilton.

The former supermodel filed for divorce from Peter Cook in 2006 after Brinkley allegedly caught Cook having an affair with his 18-year-old assistant.

The pair has two children Sailor, 9, and Jack, 12, although Jack is Brinkley’s son from her marriage to Richard Taubman and Cook is his adoptive father.

Due to Brinkley’s request, Cook is now accusing Brinkley of wanting to expose her two children. By letting the facts of their marriage be presented in a courtroom, Brinkley has nothing to lose. Cook, however, will gain terrible publicity.

Karma sucks, doesn’t it?
