To scorned women made headlines this week, Yankee baseballer-wife Cynthia Rodriguez and model Christie Brinkley have chosen decidedly different paths to dealing with the pain of adultery.
Brinkley struck back by putting her cheating ex's adulterous sex escapades with a teen and $3,000-a-month internet porn habit in the streets. Brinkley used YouTube, the media and the courts to blast details of Peter Cook’s freaky behavior to the world during the couple’s two-year battle to end their 10-year marriage.
Amid rumors of Alex Rodriquez’s possible affair Madonna, Cynthia Rodriguez allegedly chose another route to redemption. It ran straight through the high-end shops of Paris. The New York Daily News reported yesterday that she flexed her inner ‘material girl’ by blazing a trail through A-Rod’s bankbook and treating herself to a $100,000 shopping spree for her troubles. She denies the reports and says she still loves him.
I'm not criticizing any woman’s approaches. I personally know the toll adultery and divorce takes on the soul. It’s all about survival. Some women tell the world. Some women shop. Some women cut of genitals (not condoning this approach). To each, his own -unless it is illegal and causes bodily harm, of course.
I don't feel too bad for Cook. He came away with a $2.1 million settlement. That should pay for a lot of porn. We have to it and see how dirty A-Rod’s divorce gets. In the meantime if Cynthia did decide to go on a 100 grand shopping spree, it seems like pretty good salve for a broken heart. If it takes some pricey heels to help a sistah heal, I say go for it!
