Meet Meadow Walker: All about Paul Walker's daughter

Meadow Walker shared a close bond with her late father, actor Paul Walker. Born in Los Angeles on Nov. 4, 1998, to the Fast & Furious star and his then-girlfriend, Rebecca Soteros, Meadow initially grew up in Hawaii with her mom, occasionally visiting her dad. She later returned to L.A., where her parents had joint custody for a period before Meadow moved in with Paul on a full-time basis. Tragically, less than a year later, Paul passed away in a car crash on Nov. 30, 2013.

Nurturing Legacy and Love

In the years following his passing, Meadow, now 25, has blossomed into a thriving model, steadfastly upholding her father's legacy through charitable endeavors. She maintains strong ties with his Fast & Furious co-stars and has seamlessly integrated herself into the franchise. In October 2021, Meadow tied the knot with actor Louis Thornton-Allan. Unfortunately, the couple confirmed their separation in December 2023.

From Island Childhood to City Lights

Born to Walker and Soteros on Nov. 4, 1998, Meadow initially spent her childhood with her mom in Hawaii. Later, she moved to L.A. to be closer to her father. In 2017, she embarked on her modeling career, joining DNA Models, as mentioned in her Instagram bio.

Beyond gracing runways for renowned designers like Proenza Schouler and Alexander McQueen, Meadow has also become the face of Givenchy Beauty. Celebrating a milestone in March 2023, the 25-year-old shared a photo from one of her first major campaigns with the brand, featuring her image above a cosmetics counter in a department store.

Legal Battles and Settlements

In September 2015, Meadow took legal action, filing a wrongful death suit against the manufacturers of the Porsche Carrera GT involved in the crash that claimed the lives of her father and his friend, Roger Rodas. In 2017, she settled with Porsche. Additionally, she received a $10.1 million settlement from Rodas' estate, deposited into a trust.

In September 2015, on what would have been her father's 42nd birthday, Meadow commemorated the occasion by unveiling the Paul Walker Foundation. The organization is committed to "spontaneous acts of goodwill that empower young people and support the environment they live in." It also champions Paul Walker's legacy of ocean conservation.

Following a whirlwind romance, Meadow exchanged vows with her "angel," Louis Thornton-Allan, in October 2021, in an intimate beachside ceremony in the Dominican Republic. However, after two years of marriage, Meadow and Thornton-Allan decided to part ways

The model has maintained strong connections with several of her dad's Fast & Furious co-stars. Both Jordana Brewster and Vin Diesel attended her wedding, with Diesel even walking her down the aisle. Diesel shared that his daughter, Hania Riley Sinclair, had the honor of serving as Meadow's maid of honor.
