Is Vin Diesel Gay? Everything You Need to Know About His Personal Life
By Robert Thorne
The foundation of Diesel's personal life is his relationship with Karla Paloma Jiménez Denagustin. Born in Acapulco, Mexico, Jiménez established a successful international modeling career, appearing in campaigns for brands like Coca-Cola, Pantene, and Honda before meeting Diesel in the mid-2000s. The couple began dating around 2007.
Despite remaining unmarried, the two have established one of the longest-lasting unions in modern Hollywood. They share three children: daughter Hania Riley (born April 2008), son Vincent (born 2010), and daughter Pauline (born March 2015). Pauline was named in honor of Diesel's late co-star and close friend, Paul Walker. Jiménez occasionally accompanies Diesel to major international premieres, such as the worldwide launches of the Fast Saga, but she maintains no public social media presence and gives no tell-all interviews. This low profile has preserved normalcy for their family while confounding industry watchers accustomed to overexposed celebrity marriages.
