Supermodel Paulina Porizkova has publicly addressed the circumstances surrounding her eviction from a New York City apartment, providing details about the legal and financial dispute that led to the situation. In a series of social media posts and interviews, Porizkova explained that the eviction stemmed from a complex property ownership issue involving her late husband, Ric Ocasek.
According to Porizkova, the apartment was part of Ocasek's estate, and a legal battle with his sons from a previous marriage over the inheritance resulted in her being forced to leave. She stated that she had been living in the apartment rent-free after Ocasek's death in 2019, but a court ruling determined she had no legal right to remain there.
The eviction, which occurred in early 2026, garnered significant media attention, with Porizkova describing the experience as emotionally challenging. She emphasized that she is now focusing on moving forward and rebuilding her life, while also advocating for greater transparency in estate planning.
