Aaron Sorkin, Paulina Porizkova go red carpet official with their relationship at 2021 Oscars

Screenwriter Aaron Sorkin and supermodel Paulina Porizkova went red carpet official on Hollywood's biggest night.

Sorkin, 59, and Porizkova, 56, cozied up – Porizkova in a gold cowl-neck gown; Sorkin in a classic black tux – outside the 2021 Academy Awards on Sunday, confirming rumors that swirled last week about the two becoming an item.

Porizkova attended the Oscars as a guest of Sorkin's, whose script for "The Trial of the Chicago 7" was nominated for best original screenplay. Attendees were limited this year due to the pandemic: only nominees, their guests and presenters were invited, several rounds of COVID-19 tests were required and producers treated the "event as an active movie set."

USA TODAY has reached out to Sorkin's and Porizkova's representatives for further comment.

Sorkin and ex-wife Julia Bingham were married from 1996 to 2005. They share one daughter, 20-year-old Roxy Sorkin.

Porizkova was married for almost 30 years to late Cars frontman Ric Ocasek, before the two separated in 2018, more than a year before Ocasek was found dead at home at age 75. They met when she starred in his band's 1984 video "Drive" and had two sons together: Jonathan and Oliver, both in their 20s.

Porizkova opened up in an op-ed for Yahoo! earlier this month about being single for the first time since she was a teenager – she was just 19 when she and Ocasek began dating. She wrote she was still figuring out what she wants in a partner but knows she's "attracted to talent" and wants someone who "likes me for who I am."

"I don't think I would rule out getting married again because in spite of it all, I'm a totally hopeless romantic and I believe in love," Porizkova added. "And I believe in finding that one person out there that is right for me and that I'm right for and spending the rest of my life with them."
