Ric married a Super Model if I'm not mistaken...lots of hits and a classic album cover here... On 23 August 1989, Porizkova married Ric Ocasek, lead singer of the rock band The Cars.[18] They had met in 1984 during the filming of The Cars' music video "Drive". The couple has two sons, Jonathan Raven Ocasek (b. 4 November 1993),[19] and Oliver Ocasek (b. 1999).[20] In May 2018, Porizkova announced she and Ocasek had separated a year earlier.

I had forgotten that bassist Benjamin Orr died way back in 2000. He and Ric each sang lead on about half of their songs, though Ric was the main writer. When asked how they determined who sang lead, Ric said on the songs that required a better voice, I gave them to Ben. They really had a similar sound though.
