DATELINE: NEW YORK LENGTH: Short
The supermodel and her singer-songwriter husband sent a joint statement to Mitchell Fink, a People magazine columnist who contributes to CNN's ``Show Biz Today'' segment.
Further details were not available. Calls from The Associated Press to their representatives late Wednesday were not returned.
The couple has an 8-year-old daughter, Alexa Ray.
Brinkley, 40, survived a serious helicopter crash earlier this month, while ``heliskiing'' with friends near Telluride, Colo. Joel, 44, postponed a concert in Kansas City the next night to accompany his wife back to their Long Island oceanfront estate, outside New York City.
People magazine featured Brinkley on the cover of their April 18 edition. She said the April 1 accident gave her a deeper appreciation of her family.
``Maybe I'll have the patience to be a better mom,'' she told the magazine. ``Maybe I will simplify my life, because at the moment everything is so sweet to me.''
