Paul Walker’s daughter Meadow files for divorce from Louis Thornton-Allan

American model and actress Meadow Walker, daughter of late ‘Fast & Furious’ star Paul Walker, has officially filed for divorce from husband Louis Thornton-Allan. The petition for divorce came one month after they announced their separation in January 2024. The couple had proclaimed their romantic relationship in July 2021 and married a few months later in an “intimate ceremony” in the Dominican Republic.

In a 2021 interview with Vogue, she mentioned that their wedding plans were affected by the pandemic. “Louis’s family wasn’t able to attend. A lot of close friends whom we consider family were also unable to attend due to travel restrictions.”

Paul Walker tragically died in a vehicle accident in November 2013. His former co-star and best friend Vin Diesel happily stepped into his place and walked Meadow down the aisle. The reason for divorce remains unknown but the model informed her 4 million Instagram fans in December 2023 that it was a mutual decision.

“After three wonderful years of marriage, we have agreed to amicably separate,” the 25-year-old wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post. “This is truly a united decision and we sincerely hope everyone can respect our wishes for privacy. We maintain mutual love and respect for one another, and will continue to support each other.” Meadow and Louis no longer follow each other on Instagram and have deleted all posts together.

Paul, well-known for his role as Brian O’Conner in the action franchise, died at the age of forty. Meadow, who had recently moved home with her father, was 15 at the time.
Meadow has routinely shared tributes to her late father on social media since his death, and in 2015, she launched The Paul Walker Foundation to carry on his legacy.

“Paul Walker lived a life full of heart and character. His acts of kindness were impactful beyond his years,” the charity’s mission statement read.
“This foundation is an enduring light of Paul’s unique spirit. Led by Meadow Walker, the foundation hopes to leave people better educated and equipped to deal with the challenges of tomorrow.”
