Watch: Paul Walker’s Daughter Meadow Gets Married, Vin Diesel Gives Her Away
Vin Diesel and Paul Walker weren’t friends—they were family.
And the Fast and Furious star is continuing that connection to Paul’s loved ones by reuniting with his daughter Meadow Walker at the 2026 Cannes Film Festival.
Vin and Meadow shared a sweet hug during a May 13 photo call in France in honor of the Fast franchise’s 25th anniversary. The model—who previously reunited with her Fast family during her wedding to Louis Thornton-Allan in 2021—was all smiles while posing with the cast, including Michelle Rodriguez and Jordana Brewster. In addition to Vin and his fellow costars from the upcoming Fast Forever—the 11th and final movie in the beloved series—Meadow also spent time with the movie’s longtime producer Neal H. Moritz.
Jordana later shared “family portraits” from the link-up onInstagram, quipping in reference to the movie’s anniversary, “not bad for 25.”
Meadow continued the celebration later that evening by making a rare red carpet appearance for the midnight screening of the first Fast and Furious film in a stylish olive green gown with ruffles.
There, too, Meadow shared a few special moments with her father’s former costars at the evening dedicated to the movie that would bring them together for life.
Vin even gave the 27-year-old a shoutout during his speech inside the theater.
“The person who was not going to let me come alone here to represent that brotherhood was Meadow Walker,” he shared, per People. “I’m gonna go and shed a tear real quick.”

Meadow’s appearance was one of many ways Meadow has honored her father’s legacy following his tragic death in 2013.
Meadow—who was 15 years old when Paul died in a fatal car crash—shared a tribute to her dad in November 2025. “12 years without you…” Meadow captioned a slideshow of adorable father-daughter photos on Instagram, adding, “I love you forever.”

Meadow shared a similarly loving sentiment in a note written to her “guardian angel” on what would have been Paul’s 50th birthday back in 2023.
“Thank you for your love, guidance, friendship, sunshine and for raising me to see all of the beauty in the world,” Meadow wrote on Instagram with a heart emoji, adding that her dad was “the most kind, humble, generous and caring soul.”
