It’s been more than two years since the tragic and unexpected death of actor Paul Walker, but the memory of him lives on for his co-star and friend Vin Diesel. On Friday, Vin Diesel paid a heartwarming tribute to his late friend, with a moving Instagram post. He shared an image of himself holding his one-year-old daughter Pauline, who is named after Paul Walker, high up in the air.
The picture captioned as ‘Always,’ has been created in a way in which Mr. Walker is seen smiling in the background. The caption suggests that Walker continues to live on in their hearts, forever looking after his namesake.
Pauline, the youngest of Diesel’s three children, was born last year and is named after Walker, who died in a car accident in November 2013.
This isn’t the first time Vin Diesel has paid tribute to his friend, who he calls his ‘brother.’ Since Paul Walker’s death in 2013, Vin Diesel has time and again took to Instagram to express his grief and to remember his good friend, Paul who left the world too soon. Recently, Vin Diesel had written an emotional note while filming Fast & Furious 8.
The images serve as powerful reminders that Walker’s legacy may be gone, but is certainly never forgotten in the hearts of those he loved, close friends, family and fans around the world.
