MUMBAI — Hollywood star Vin Diesel may be known for iconic characters such as Dominic Toretto, Xander Cage, Riddick, Groot and Bloodshot, but for the actor, his most fulfilling role is that of a father.
Vin took to Instagram, where he shared a picture of himself cuddling his daughter and wrote in the caption section: “Riddick, Dom, Xander, Groot, Theo, Kaulder, Bloodshot… all parts of me. But the role that completes me… dad.”
Vin shares three children with his longtime partner, Mexican model Paloma Jimenez. They have Hania, Vincent, and Pauline together.
Hania is their oldest child and was born in 18. They have a son named Vincent, who was born in 2010. Their youngest daughter is named Pauline, who is 11. The star named her in honor of his late close friend and Fast & Furious co-star, Paul Walker.
Diesel got the spotlight in the late 1990s and first became known for appearing in Steven Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan in 1998.
He was then seen in Boiler Room, The Pacifier XXX, and The Chronicles of Riddick. Diesel’s voice acting work includes The Iron Giant, the video games The Chronicles of Riddick: Escape from Butcher Bay and The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, and the voices of Groot I and Groot II.
