Rick Ocasek of The Cars Left His Supermodel Wife Out of His Will

Bye bye, love. Late Cars’ singer Ric Ocasek cut his estranged, supermodel wife out of his will, claiming that she “abandoned” him, the now-public document reveals. “I have made no provision for my wife Paulina Porizkova (“Paulina”) as we are in the process of divorcing,” the new-wave icon wrote in his last wishes. “Even if I should die before our divorce is final … Paulina is not entitled to any elective share … because she has abandoned me.” Porizkova was the one who found her estranged rocker husband’s body in September, while bringing him coffee as he recovered from a recent surgery in his Manhattan townhouse. A filing listed with the document lists Ocasek’s assets to include $5 million in “copyrights” — but just $100,000 in “tangible personal property” and $15,000 in cash. Ocasek, 75, died of natural causes on Sept. 15. The documents also indicate that Ocasek signed the will on Aug. 28, less than a month before his death. The executor is named as his “friend and business manager,” Mario Testani.
