Vin Diesel Names His Daughter Pauline in Honor of His Late Fast and Furious Co-Star Paul Walker
Actor Vin Diesel named his newborn daughter after his “2 Fast 2 Furious” co-star and best friend, Paul Walker.
Walker died in November, 2013, in a car accident.
On Monday, Diesel told NBC’s Today, “I named her Pauline. There’s no other person that I’m thinking about as I’m cutting this umbilical cord.”
He said, “I knew he was there and I felt like, you know, a way to keep his memory a part of my memory, a part of my world.”
Pauline’s birth was announced via Facebook March 16, and she’s Diesel’s third child with his longtime girlfriend, Paloma Jiménez.
