15 year-old Meadow Walker on Paul Walker's death; the "Fast and Furious" star's daughter is holding up well, and she wants fans to know it in a recent post on her Instagram account.
Paul Walker's death in November last year was a shock to fans, and reports of his legacy in charity and as a father overwhelmed his popularity as an actor. The family was relatively silent in the wake of the tragedy, though, especially Meadow.
Alleged Instagram posts from Meadow circulated in recent months, eventually proven faked, unofficial, or fan-made. Meadow breaks her silence today, though, sharing a post which revealed she's recovering and moving on.
Meadow opened social media accounts in April to debunk impostors; she had three posts on her Instagram account, dated May 4, June 9, and July 7. She's all smiles in her recent post, wearing a patterned bikini at the beach, with caption "glad to be back."
The post hinted recovery for Meadow Walker on Paul Walker's death, and fans reacted positively in the comments. @boostedwolfe said "you are amazing. You have your dad's beautiful gaze and smile. His legacy will love on through you :)," and @michibissette echoed the same sentiment: "Never forget to smile even in the bad moments , all the people who loved you father always gonna be here for you <3"
One of Meadow Walker's first Instagram photos was in black and white, sitting beside and looking into his father's eyes. The touching photo hinted at their close relationship, unrevealed during the actor's career (hellomagazine.com).
Meadow's gone through tough times since her father's death, though, caught in a custody battle between her mother Rebecca Soteros and Paul's mother Cheryl Walker.
Paul indicated in his will that Meadow's grandmother becomes her guardian in case anything happens to him, which is being disputed by Rebecca Soteros, whom Meadow grew up with.
The family rarely made any public comments on the affair, especially Meadow Walker on Paul Walker's death. She currently lives with her mom and nanny in Hawaii (yahoo.com).
