Paul Walker's daughter Meadow walks ‘F9’ premiere as Vin Diesel pays tribute to late actor

Keeping the legacy alive, late actor Paul Walker's young daughter Meadow Walker honored her dad as she walked the red carpet of F9 premiere on Friday.

The 22-year-old model donned a black gown by Yves Saint Laurent with chic cutouts on the side. Meadow shared a photo of her look on Instagram ahead of the event, writing "let's go" alongside a shot of herself leaning against a wall.

Later, F9 star Jordana Brewster posted a picture of some of her children and Meadow inside the premiere. "Family forever," wrote Brewster, 41, while Meadow commented, "Love you "

Meadow’s dad Paul starred in the Fast & Furious films up until his death in November 2013. Series lead star Vin Diesel also paid tribute to Walker on Friday. The actor shared a throwback picture of the duo attending the premiere of Fast & Furious 5 together in 2011.

"On my way to the premiere... you will be there in spirit," he captioned the photo.


Diesel, who is Meadow's godfather, opened up about the late actor while talking to reporters on the red carpet. "Some of my best moments in life were going to the premiere and the person, the face that I have at every one of these massive premieres, it was my brother Pablo," he said, using an affectionate nickname. "It was always after we delivered the movie, after we had given everything to all the fans, it was a moment where he and I just reflected about the journey."

"He had come from so far. We surprised the world with this small little film about brotherhood and we would dream about the future, so when I was thinking who I'm going to see at this premiere, I kept going back to Pablo and I know that he's here too," he added.

Paul died at age 40 in a 2013 car accident when his daughter was 15. Despite his death, Universal Pictures manages to find ways to include Walker in the films via brief cameos because his character is still alive.
