November 30, 2025, marked 12 years since Paul Walker’s life was taken in a tragic car accident. Just like every year since Paul’s passing, his daughter, Meadow Walker, posted a heartfelt message to Instagram in memory of the father she loved and lost. “12 years without you… I love you forever,” she wrote. But these sweet tributes aren’t the only way Meadow has been honouring her father’s memory over the years.
Back in 2015, Meadow opened up a foundation to honour the legacy of her father on what would have been his 42nd birthday. She has been the founder and president of the conservation organisation for ten years and has been very active in raising awareness and funds for the causes her father held dear. The Paul Walker Foundation focuses on marine conservation efforts, humanitarian aid, and scholarships for students pursuing studies in oceanography.
Meadow has also followed in her father’s footsteps by joining the Fast and Furious franchise’s latest adventures in Fast X (2023). While it wasn’t a lengthy appearance or a major role in the film, she did become an official part of the family that she grew up with and who supported her after her dad’s passing.
Vin Diesel, in particular, has been a mentor and father figure to Meadow since her father’s death. The FF lead even walked her down the aisle when she got married in 2021. That said, Meadow has also kept in touch with several other cast members from the Fast and Furious series, including her dad’s on-screen love interest, Jordana Brewster.
While there are many different ways the model continues to honour her father’s memory, whether it be sweet Instagram posts of the two of them or honouring her commitment to a foundation she started in his honour, we’d say it’s pretty special that she chose to become and remain a part of a ‘family’ her father held very dear.
As Dom Toretto often says in the FF movies, “You don’t turn your back on family,” and Meadow Walker has taken that message to heart by staying connected with her father’s Fast and Furious family all these years later.
