Stephanie Seymour is learning how to make do, said William Norwich in Town & Country. For two years, the ex-supermodel, 42, was caught up in a nasty divorce battle with her husband, billionaire entrepreneur Peter Brant, 64, whom she married in 1995. After years of feeling like a trophy wife, Seymour decided she wanted out.
In court, Brant accused her of adultery and addiction to painkillers. She accused him of bullying her and her children. “It got out of control,” she says. Sickened by the rancor, she sank into depression and sometimes wouldn’t leave her room for days. “I felt I had disappointed everyone, that I was causing my children so much pain,” she says.
