The perfect way to remember a friend.

Vin Diesel's life must be in overdrive right now as he gets set to promote the upcoming 'Furious 7' while also balancing the more important role of fatherhood with his newborn daughter, Pauline. The action star revealed the name of his fourth child on The Today Show and had some moving words about his late friend who was the inspiration behind the little girls name. 'There’s no other person that I was thinking about as I was cutting the umbilical cord. I knew he was there. It felt like… a way to keep his memory a part of my family and a part of my world.' As we all remember, Paul Walker tragically died in a car accident in December 2013 whilst 'Furious 7' was filming but we find it incredibly fitting that part of his memory will live on with his best friends newest child. Lovely stuff.
