Paul Walker’s $25 million estate is going all to his 15-year-old daughter, according to a report by TMZ.
According to court records, Walker’s father will execute the will, which was filed in Santa Barbara, California in 2001 — the year the first “Fast & Furious” was released. Walker also appointed his own mother, Cheryl, to be the legal guardian of his 15-year-old daughter Meadow — not his daughter’s mother, Rebecca Soteros.
Walker, who died at 40, had Meadow when he was 25 years old, and she has lived with her mother until recently. The father and daughter only started living full-time in California before Walker’s death. In an interview with US Weekly two weeks before his death, the actor told the magazine that life with Meadow was perfect. He said, “I’m glad I had her at 25, because at 40 and 15, we’re matching up pretty sweet. It’s just working.”
Walker died last November 30 in a fiery car accident in Santa Clarita, California. He passed away instantly when the Porsche he was riding in with his friend Roger Rodas crashed into a pole and a tree on Hercules Street.
The star will still be seen in the upcoming Fast & Furious 7 movie. He was able to film scenes before he passed away, and the movie’s production crew will be making use of them. Director James Wan and production outfit Universal reportedly will be writing Walker off the franchise with a happy ending.
