Paulina Porizkova has married television writer Jeff Greenstein, 62, in a romantic ceremony in Florence, Italy.

The 61-year-old supermodel announced the happy news on Instagram on Friday, June 10 2026, sharing photographs of the newlyweds embracing and kissing on a picturesque balcony.

Paulina looked radiant in a pale pink sundress featuring a fitted bodice and flowing skirt, which she teamed with flat sandals for the intimate legal ceremony. Wearing her silver hair loose, she completed her understated bridal look with minimal make-up and her sparkling engagement ring.

Jeff, 62, adopted an equally relaxed approach, wearing jeans and a printed shirt as he celebrated with his new wife.

The couple also appeared together in a video filmed on the balcony of their Florence accommodation, revealing that completing the legal requirements to marry in Italy had taken approximately seven months.

Paulina explained that they had plenty more to share but were focused on spending time with the friends and relatives who had travelled to join them.

Paulina and Jeff have been together since 2023

The newlyweds began dating in early 2023 after meeting through a dating app and announced their engagement in July 2025. Jeff is an Emmy-winning television writer, producer and director whose credits include Will & Grace, Friends, Desperate Housewives and The Neighborhood.

The couple previously revealed that practical considerations had contributed to their decision to make their relationship legally binding, particularly their desire to have the authority to make medical decisions for one another.

Speaking on their podcast, Twenty Good Summers, Paulina joked that she wanted the right to “unplug” Jeff, while explaining that marriage ultimately involved trusting a partner with some of life’s most consequential choices.

Paulina was previously married to The Cars frontman Ric Ocasek, whom she met while appearing in the band’s 1984 music video for ‘Drive’. They married in 1989, welcomed sons Jonathan and Oliver and separated in 2017 after nearly three decades together.

The pair were still legally married when Ric died in 2019 while recovering from surgery. Paulina, who had been helping to care for him, later discovered she had been excluded from his will, resulting in a painful dispute with his estate that was settled in 2021.

Her marriage to Jeff marks a hopeful new chapter following several years in which the model has spoken candidly about grief, financial upheaval and rediscovering love later in life.

The wedding also came shortly after Paulina revealed that her Manhattan landlord had declined to extend her lease, leaving the couple searching for a new home as they prepared to begin married life together.
