Model Paulina Porizkova is opening up on her new relationship with "Will & Grace" showrunner Jeff Greenstein.
The two have been dating for several months after meeting on the Raya dating app. Although the author of "No Filter: The Good, The Bad, and The Beautiful" has kissed a few frogs, she has finally met her prince and has nothing but positive things about her new relationship.
Paulina Porizkova Shares New Details About Her ‘Scary’ and ‘Exhilarating’ New Relationship
Over the weekend, the "Anna" actress posted a photo on Instagram that featured her kissing in new beau in front of a statue that featured two people kissing. "For the risk of making you all slightly nauseated with all the kissy lovey stuff - here’s one more," she wrote in the caption. "And yes, I know, watching someone falling in love is like watching someone eat with relish- it can be mouthwatering or just plain out gross."
"And so I will save you from the hundred kissy photos currently stocked in my photos. But this is what my life is right now," she continued. "Meeting my equal. Meeting someone loves history as much as I do. But also wants to make new discoveries. Someone who is confident with who they are and where they are at- but can be as utterly goofy as me. That’s incredible."
"But at our age - it’s secondary to meeting someone who’s done the work on themselves. Someone who understands what they did wrong in the past, take responsibility for it and have a desire to learn something new. To do better," she wrote. "Someone who’s great with words is wonderful - but someone who not only listens, but HEARS is even better."
"And - equally as important, and in a way age related, is someone who, despite previous disappointments and heartbreak, is still willing to rip their heart out and place in your hands," she concluded. "And THAT someone also has to be YOU. New love is a scary as it’s exhilarating."
Paulina Explains How She Finally Found Her 'Prince'
In another Instagram post shared last month, the Czech-born model shared a photo that featured her smiling into the camera while the writer kissed her cheek, his eyes closed. In the caption, Paulina began, "I’ve often described the middle-aged dating pool as a muddy puddle. So did it change? Nope. It’s definitely a dirty little puddle. So, how did I get lucky?"
"It’s all in the numbers!" she revealed. "My single girlfriends told me this a while back when I just started to splash around in it. 'You just set date after date, don’t invest much in the first date- and go through as many as you have the time for.' This is what I did. I’ve been on about forty or so dates in the last three years."
"It turns out that it IS in fact in the numbers," Paulina confessed. "By the time you’re a well-seasoned age, the dating pool consists of mostly divorcées, those permanently not-really-available, and a few widows and widowers. People with no relationship issues are happily married or in long term relationships!"
"What’s on the market are mostly the wares that are either being returned, or return of their own volition, because they are convinced there are superior takers who just haven’t showed up yet," she wrote. "So, this dating pool is in fact a puddle of seventy percent of people who have serious commitment issues."
"Although I didn’t have 'commitment issues', I certainly had relationship issues. One of those was falling for those with commitment issues," she joked. "This part I had to relearn. Three years of intense self work and kissing a lot of lovely frogs. And that’s how I found my prince."
Fans and famous friends had nothing but love for her new relationship. Two-time Olympian Jenny Stoute commented, “Love this love you Missy. I found my soul mate 6 years ago at 52 years old. We both agree life taught us some good lessons - So great that by the time we met we were well seasoned and fully appreciative of each other. Timing is everything!”
Actress Jodie Sweetin wrote, “YES!!! Yes you have found your Prince. And your OWN North Star. @paulinaporizkov Love you my friend and truly couldn’t be happier. I remember some lovely beach chats about this very thing, and I’m doing a big happy dance for you!!” Paulina replied, “Aw, Jodie, you always had my back. And my front!”
