How Paul Walker’s Daughter Meadow’s Life Turns Around After Dad’s Death And Fight For Justice
“I’ve come a very long way.”
Californian model Meadow-Rain Walker is among one many who fell into the spotlight after their parent’s passing. Meadow grew up watching her father star in the hit movie series ‘Fast & Furious.’
She rarely talks about her private life, but the 23-year-old loves sharing her father’s love and passion.
She lost him in 2013, and she was 15. Paul Walker died in a car crash in a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT that tragically burnt his body beyond recognition.
The young girl took it upon herself to find the truth and sought justice from Porsche for her father. Her wrongful death lawsuit stated that the car they drove in “lacked safety features that could have prevented the accident or, at a minimum, allowed Paul Walker to survive the crash.”
Two years later, they reached an agreement for an unspecified amount.
She also had a tumor removed two years ago.
Paul started the Reach Out Worldwide charity with Roger Rodas, the same man who died with him in the crash.
Carrying the same energy, Meadow continued his father’s passion, who often led him to many disaster sites to provide aid and relief. The charity began for the earthquake in Haiti back in 2010.
Meadow used $25 million from her inheritance to launch the Paul Walker Foundation. The site’s mission reads, “One of the key ways she plans to meet this challenge is by helping ocean leaders of tomorrow become beacons in the fight to protect our oceans, wildlife, and ourselves.”
She often talks about his father’s passion for nature and the ocean.
She’s also recently married to actor Louis Thornton-Allan!
The two announced their marriage on social media after tying the knot on October 21. She was seen holding an intimate ceremony near a beach, dressed in a white, elegant gown, with one of his father’s closest friends walking her down the aisle.
Yep, that’s Vin Diesel acting as her godfather for the matrimonial event.
Meadow has also been getting serious with her modeling career.
Earlier this year, she signed with DNA Model Management, putting on an elite list with other supermodels. She made a stunning appearance at the Givenchy show, walking alongside the likes of Bella Hadid.
