Meadow Walker, the daughter of the late Paul Walker from the Fast & Furious franchise, revealed that her father's co-star and friend Vin Diesel walked her down the aisle during her wedding to Louis Thornton-Allan.
Walker shared the news and beautiful images of her wedding on Instagram, showing both her walking down the aisle with Diesel and her walking away from the altar with Thornton-Allan after they were officially married.
Meadow, who is a model, spoke to Vogue about her marriage to Thornton-Allan, and discussed how they were seperated during quarantine during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Fortunately, they were quickly brought back together.
“It was the longest we had spent apart since being together, and I missed him so much,” she remembers. “He flew to London to surprise me, and we quarantined together. After spending more time with his family in England, he couldn’t wait for the ring we had been thinking of designing and proposed with a ring I had been given on set that day. It was so sentimental and sweet. I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way.”
They chose to get married in the Dominican Republic alongside "an intimate group of family and friends." The pandemic definitely changed their plans and caused many to miss the ceremony, but they made the best of it.
Paul Walker passed away at the age of 40 after a car accident that also took the life of his friend Roger Rodas. His final film appearance was in Furious 7 as Brian O'Conner, a character he had been playing since 2001's The Fast and the Furious.
