Paulina Porizkova reveals she’s getting evicted from NYC apartment days before her Italy wedding to Jeff Greenstein
Paulina Porizkova says she’s getting “evicted” from her New York City apartment just days before she’s set to marry fiancé Jeff Greenstein in Italy.
The 61-year-old model revealed that she is getting booted from her Manhattan pad, which she has lived in since 2021, after her landlord declined to extend her lease.
“No matter how great a tenant I was for six years, he didn’t really want to give us an extension on the lease, even though I begged and pleaded,” Porizkova said this week on the “Twenty Good Summers” podcast she co-hosts with Greenstein.
“And so we have to move out of here four days before we get married in Italy. Not great.”
“We are both over 60, and we are starting again,” Porizkova said.
“We’re starting over completely, both of us, because we are about to move out of this apartment that I love so much, that has kept me safe, and where I’ve sort of grown up to be a woman, I feel.”
The former supermodel said they still have housing options.
“We’re very privileged souls,” she said. “I do have a country house that I co-own with my sons [Jonathan and Oliver]. And so we can move up there, which is kind of further away from New York City.
“Or we still have [Greenstein’s] house in LA, which we are in the process of selling, but for the time being, we can go there.”
“We cannot complain, but it is an unexpected happenstance,” Greenstein added.
“This is not how we would have drawn it up. Getting kicked out of this apartment four days before the wedding and coming back to nothing in New York is not what we planned.”
The couple also addressed the move in a joint Instagram post shared Monday.
“Friends, we’re getting kicked out of our apartment four days before our wedding — thanks, Unsympathetic Landlord! — which, along with some relevant emails from our faithful fanbase, spurred us to do an episode about moving: when to move in together, how to harmonize lives and tastes, and all the emotions such transitions unleash,” they wrote. “Pack a box and join the fun!”
Greenstein, a television writer and producer, proposed to Porizkova in July 2025 after two years of dating.
Porizkova was previously married to the late Cars frontman Ric Ocasek. The pair wed in 1989 and welcomed two sons, Jonathan, 31, and Oliver, 27. They announced their split in 2018 after 28 years of marriage.
Last month, Porizkova celebrated turning 61 by posting a video of herself wearing a red-and-white striped bikini on Instagram.
Stephen Colbert also recently revealed he was surprised to learn Porizkova had named him her celebrity “hall pass.”
