Supermodel Paulina Porizkova reveals she has a new BOYFRIEND

Paulina Porizkova has revealed that she has a new boyfriend — nearly two years after her split from screenwriter and director Aaron Sorkin. 

The supermodel, 58, made her budding romance Instagram official on Wednesday when she posted a sweet snapshot of their shadows kissing as they soaked up the sun on an outdoor deck.

‘Love is in the air,’ she coyly captioned the image, without naming her mystery man.

Porizkova revealed last month that she was ‘in the early days’ of dating someone new, but if her latest post is any indication, things are heating up between them. 

Porizkova announced last month that she was ‘in the early days’ of dating someone, but she has kept the identity of her mystery man under wraps 

She shared the news on the HollywoodLife Podcast while discussing how she had read the relationship self-help book Us by Terrence Real and knew she wanted her future partner to read it. 

‘I thought, “The next man I meet where I feel like the potential for a relationship is going to go somewhere, I’m going to make them read this book before we get anywhere for real,’ she explained. ‘And so I can say, I’ve just handed that book up to somebody.’

Porizkova kept his identity under wraps, but she noted that he did read the book.  

‘We had the most amazing conversations about ourselves and where we are going and what we want,’ she said. ‘So it was a fantastic conversation piece, actually.’

The No Filter author, who was married to Ric Ocasek for 30 years, added that she was still struggling with ‘trust issues.’  

‘My work is cut out for me,’ she admitted. 

Porizkova has spoken candidly about her grief and anger after Ocasek unexpectedly died of cardiovascular disease at the age of 75 on September 15, 2019. 

They were separated and going through a divorce when she found him dead inside their shared Manhattan townhouse. 

Porizkova was married to Ric Ocasek for 30 years. The model and The Cars frontman were separated and going through a divorce when he died in September 2019 

Porizkova’s first public relationship after her late husband’s death was with Aaron Sorkin, with whom she attended the Oscars in 2021. They split in July of that year after three months 

The day after The Cars frontman died, she learned he had cut her out of his will just weeks before, claiming she had ‘abandoned’ him. He left her without any money to live off of, including her own earnings. 

The cover star was forced to sell their home amid the pandemic for $10 million — far less than the $15.25 million they had previously listed it for in 2016. 

She later reached a settlement with her late husband’s estate and received what was owed to her per New York state law, which was one-third of Ocasek’s assets. 

Porizkova’s first public relationship after her late husband’s death was with Sorkin, 61, with whom she attended the Oscars in 2021. The outing was later revealed to be their second date. 

She announced their split on Instagram that July after roughly three months together. In the caption, she gushed about how wonderful the Oscar-winning screenwriter is, calling him ‘witty’ and ‘sexy.’ 

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit alum never explicitly revealed why their relationship came to an end, but she alluded to them being too different. 

Porizkova rejoined Hinge after the breakup but was ‘booted off’ the dating app because other users assumed her account was fake. She admitted that she didn’t have much luck dating after her account was reinstated. 

She has been open about her struggles with dating and meeting her men in her 50s after three decades of marriage. 

‘It’s a small pool. Dirty, little puddle. Girls, ladies, it sucks. It turns out that, on the dating apps, men our age, my age, that are willing to sleep with women our age have slept with all my girlfriends already,’ she explained on Red Table Talk last November. 

‘So there’s, like, these five guys we keep passing around. They’re like, “So did you sleep with him yet? Yeah, don’t bother. Okay, cool, thanks.”‘

Porizkova has alluded to her new boyfriend in her recent Instagram posts. ‘Hope the BF doesn’t see this one!’ she joked when she shared this photo from her vacation in Morocco 

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit alum also seemed to be talking about her boyfriend when she opened up about her fear of coming off as ‘needy’ in an Instagram post last week

Porizkova, who has more than one million Instagram followers, has alluded to her new boyfriend in her recent posts without divulging any details about him. 

Earlier this month, she referenced her beau while sharing a photo of herself that was taken inside her Airbnb rental in Marrakech during her trip to Morocco. 

‘What I look like from below, wearing my prescription glasses that shrink my eyeballs down to peas, with no makeup, while trying to do a selfie with our incredible ceiling in our rented Air B&B. Hope the BF doesn’t see this one!’ she joked.

Porizkova spent her 58th birthday traveling home to New York, and the next day she posted a sultry snapshot of herself lying naked in bed with nothing more than a stuffed animal and a strategically placed sheet. 

The mother of two also seemed to be talking about her boyfriend when she opened up about her fear of coming off as ‘needy’ in an Instagram post last week. 

‘”I don’t want to seem needy,”‘ I said to him. “I don’t want you to think I’m crazy.” “You being needy means you have needs. And that is not crazy,” he said. Not until that moment did I realize I equalized having needs with being crazy,’ she wrote in the caption.

‘In my childhood, I learned my needs were inconsequential and made me “difficult.” So I ended up recreating the same dynamics in my love life, partners that had no room for my needs. I suppressed them to please my partners, but my resentment would bubble up and spill over, making me seem “needy and crazy.”‘

Porizkova admitted that she was partly at fault for the dynamic because she never learned how to ask for what she needed. 

‘When I’d try to assert a need, I was met with befuddlement. After all, I presented as a woman who was eminently capable, and therefore, one with no needs,’ she explained. ‘Even though sometimes I was caving in under the weight of it all.

‘I have finally learned how not to be ashamed of my needs. To “out’ them and face possible rejections. And I’ve come to find out, those who reject are people who don’t listen. Who don’t want to hear. So I’ll be sticking with the ones who do.’
