Model PAULINA PORIZKOVA has been married to RIC OCASEK of THE CARS for 29 years. But it turns out they split up a year ago. In a post on Instagram, PORIZKOVA says “Our family always has been – and still is – a well-built car. When the four of us are together, we can go wherever the road takes us. But as a bicycle, my husband and I no longer pedal in unison. So, we’re ditching the bicycle. Ric and I have been peacefully separated for the past year. The photos of our happy family are, in fact, happy family photos; we are just no longer a couple.”
