Vin Diesel is a father of three children, daughters Hania Riley and Pauline (named after his late friend and co-star Paul Walker), and son Vincent, with his longtime partner, Mexican model Paloma Jim\u00e9nez.<\/p>\n

Vin Diesel is the gruff and tough protagonist who easily pulls off monstrous carjacking and multi-million dollar heists with panache On the Fast and Furious franchise<\/em>. This has cemented his status as one of the greatest action figures to grace Hollywood. He is also one of the highest-paid, thanks to the multibillion-dollar franchise. When he is not busy pulling off daredevil stunts on the screens, Vin Diesel is very much mellow and is a family man at heart.<\/p>\n

Though not married, Diesel has gone steady with the model, Paloma Jim\u00e9nez, for more than a decade now, and in that time, they have welcomed three wonderful kids. Diesel is fiercely protective of both his partner and kids, but at the same time is quite proud of them. Though the actor does not splash his family information for public consumption, he doesn\u2019t fail to express how important they are to him.<\/p>\n

Vin Diesel is the Perfect Combination of Action Hero and Family Man<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Some people sacrifice family happiness to build their careers, while for others, it is vice versa. For the likes of Vin Diesel, he has successfully struck the perfect balance between the two, and the reason may be that he has achieved some level of professional success before setting up his family. Diesel aspired to be an actor from an early age and, when he was in his 20s, started hustling for movie roles. Being biracial, Diesel found it hard breaking through as he was considered not black enough, white enough, Italian enough, or Hispanic enough in the 80s and 90s Hollywood.<\/p>\n

Frustrated by such a reality, the young Vin Diesel took matters into his own hands and produced and directed a short drama in which he starred.\u00a0That short drama, Multi-facial<\/em>, captured the discrimination he faced because of his heritage and made it to several film festivals. During one of those festivals, the legendary director, Steven Spielberg, saw it and decided to cast Diesel in his award-winning 1998 film, Saving Private Ryan<\/em>. The role was a small one, but it led to a series of other small roles, and three years later, Diesel landed the career-defining role of Dom on the Fast and Furious<\/em> franchise.<\/p>\n

What started as just a one-off film has grown into one of the world’s most popular and highest-grossing film series. The Fast and Furious franchise<\/em> has thus far yielded nine films across two decades, and Diesel has spearheaded about eight of them.\u00a0His work on the series has made him one of the notable action stars of all time, and he has received several accolades. He is also one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood and pocketed an upfront $20 million for Fast and Furious 9 in 2021. It has indeed being a wild ride in the industry for Diesel, and what makes the journey all the more wonderful is his family that are there to cherish it with him.<\/p>\n

The Fast and Furious Star is in a Long Term Relationship with Mexican Model Paloma Jim\u00e9nez<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Most A-list stars are usually the subject of frequent dating rumors, but this is not so with Vin Diesel. The actor is in a low-key but stable and strong relationship with model and TV star Paloma Jim\u00e9nez. Real name \u2013 Karla Paloma Jim\u00e9nez Denagustin, Jim\u00e9nez originally hails from Acapulco, Mexico, and was born on the 2nd of August 1983. Thanks to natural good looks and an impressive height of 5 feet 10 inches, Jim\u00e9nez has worked as a professional model and feature on the cover of magazines such as the Spanish edition of Maxim.<\/em><\/p>\n

She has also appeared in campaigns for brands such as Coca-Cola, Honda, and Pantene. Besides modeling, the beautiful Jim\u00e9nez has also featured in some TV shows, including a popular Mexican comedy ad variety show known as Otra Rollo<\/em>. Since her romance with Diesel began, Jim\u00e9nez has largely scaled back her career and is now focused on taking care of her kids and her man.<\/p>\n

They Have Been Together Since 2007 But Has Never Been Married<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Vin Diesel is famously tight-lipped about his love life, and as such, it is not known how he and Paloma Jim\u00e9nez met each other. It is, however, known that they commenced their relationship in 2007. Before that time, the only lady that Diesel had been known to date publicly was his Fast and Furious co-star, Michelle Rodriguez. That romance fizzled out within a year, and the actor found himself single. He was quite contented with that status, and a few non-committal flings, but the 2005 movie, The Pacifier<\/em>, changed his mindset.<\/p>\n

In that film, Diesel had to play nanny to about five kids, and the whole experience made him realize that he wanted to be a father.\u00a0However, the fulfillment of that dream depended on finding the right person and that right person came along in 2007 in the shape of Paloma Jim\u00e9nez. Diesel was quite taken with Jim\u00e9nez when they first met, and they commenced a relationship that same year. They have now been together for 13 years and counting, enjoying a stable and scandal-free romance.<\/p>\n

The couple has also welcomed three kids together. Despite the longevity of their union and the three kids they share, Diesel and Jim\u00e9nez have never talked about wedding plans. It may be that they don\u2019t want to bend to society\u2019s rules. It is also possible that they could still tie the knot someday down the line. Whichever it is, the relationship between Diesel and Jim\u00e9nez is as strong as they come, marriage or no marriage.<\/p>\n

The Couple Keep Their Romance Out of the Spotlight<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Vin Diesel and Paloma Jim\u00e9nez have been together for about 13 years now, and one thing that has been quite obvious is that they prefer keeping their romance out of media scrutiny. For instance, the couple started dating in 2007 but only made their red carpet debut at a gala honoring Samuel L. Jackson on the 1st of December 2008. By that time, they had been together for more than a year and even welcomed their first child together.
\nDiesel and Jim\u00e9nez clearly preferred keeping their romance out of the spotlight, and this has been their M.O. to date. The actor hardly talks about their relationships to the media, and Jim\u00e9nez avoids it entirely.<\/p>\n

However, she regularly accompanies Diesel to the red carpet for his important movie premieres. She has also been by his side during major award ceremonies.\u00a0Diesel has also expressed his love and admiration for his partner on a few occasions. For instance, in 2014, he shared a picture of Jim\u00e9nez holding their second child and described her as his Mayan queen. He stated that the best gift a man could get is a loving mother for his children. Another occasion that Diesel also let his feelings lose was during the premiere of his film, xXx: Return of Xander Cage<\/em>, in 2017.<\/p>\n

Jim\u00e9nez attended the premiere with him, and he proudly gushed that she was stunningly beautiful<\/a>. He described her as his rock and a perfect mother and sweetly yelled \u201cI love you\u201d to her while his red carpet interview lasted. Such an outburst marks one of the rare occasions that Vin Diesel confessed his feelings for Jim\u00e9nez before the whole world. The actor usually avoids talking about his love life, and this has led to several speculations. Diesel was even rumored to be gay<\/a> at some point in 2005, but he quickly squashed it. He stated that he belonged to the Marlon Brando, Harrison Ford, Robert De Niro, and Al Pacino code of silence and would never put out his love life on a magazine cover like other actors.<\/p>\n

He also made it known that dating another celebrity is just asking for trouble and that he would never do a Bennifer-style of romance. This was back in the 2000s, but Diesel remains notoriously guarded about his love life to date. That particular trait means that we may never know specific details about his long-term romance with Jim\u00e9nez, such as why they are yet to get married or if they ever will.<\/p>\n

Diesel and Jim\u00e9nez Have Three Kids and Some of Them Are Already Following in their Father\u2019s Footsteps<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Vin Diesel may be reluctant to show off his lady love to the rest of the world, but he has no such issues with his kids. The actor\u2019s relationship with Jim\u00e9nez has produced three kids, and he is crazy about them. He frequently posts snaps of him hanging out with them on his Instagram page. They also accompany him to the red carpet for the big events. Diesel has also been dishing about the impact they have made in his life.<\/p>\n

For instance, after Fast and Furious 9 was released in 2021, Diesel revealed that fatherhood has made him have second thoughts<\/a> about the intricate stunts that he performs on Fast and Furious. According to him, he was previously a daredevil and didn\u2019t give such things a thought before. However, he has learned to be more careful to come home to his kids in one piece at the end of the day.<\/p>\n
