Paul Walker's daughter shares heartbreaking tribute on anniversary of his tragic death

Meadow Walker, the daughter of Fast & Furious star Paul Walker, has paid tribute to her dad on the anniversary of his death after he died in a car accident nine years ago

Meadow Walker has shared a touching tribute to her late dad Paul Walker on the ninth anniversary of his tragic death.

The Fast and Furious star was just 40 years old when he was involved in a fatal car accident on November 30, 2013. The incident also claimed the life of the driver and Paul's friend Roger Rodas.

Paul's 24-year-old daughter took to Instagram on Wednesday to mark the anniversary, as she shared a throwback photo taken when she was a child.

In the sweet black-and-white snap, Paul was seen teaching a young Meadow how to bowl as the father-daughter duo smiled for the camera.

In the caption, Meadow - who was 15 when her father died - wrote: "9 years without you. I love you so much my angel."
