All the Details About Meadow Rain Walker's Mother Rebecca Soteros

The untold truth about Meadow Rain Walker's mother, Rebecca Soteros.   

Best known as a budding model and the surviving blood of late actor Paul Walker, Meadow Walker's mother has long been a closed chapter of Meadow's life. Unlike her popular father, whose untimely death from a car crash shook the world in 2013, Meadow's commoner mother, Rebecca Soteros, and her relationship with her is a lesser-known subject.  

A toddler, Meadow Rain Walker, was often spotted on Paul's movie set, the Fast & the Furious, but till she could reach adulthood under the guidance of her superstar father, a teenage Meadow was instead bereaving her father's death in November 2013. An established model and social media personality now, Meadow was practically raised by her mother and godfather. The model is happily married now.  

Who is Meadow Rain Walker's mother?  

Meadow Rain Walker was born on November 4, 1998, in Northern California, California, to the Fast & Furious actor Paul Walker and Rebecca Soteros. Paul and Soteros reportedly started dating in the late 90s and went on to have Meadow outside of the wedlock. Soteros is popularly described as Paul's one-time girlfriend, and Walker's past interviews ratify the pair's casual relationship.

In an interview right before his tragic death, the actor had admitted to being a commitment-fearing man when Rebecca bore his daughter. "I knew where I was at with chicks and having fun. I was sleeping with her friends, for crying out loud," the actor told WENN. Paul confesses he was there for Soteros and Meadow financially, "but emotionally I wasn't there," says the late actor.

Before Paul, Rebecca dated and was even married to Nicko McBrain, Iron Maiden drummer; even then, she had kept a pretty low profile. It was after Paul's death when Rebecca and Paul's mother piqued the interests of the world. Paul's mom, Cheryl, had the then-15 years old Meadow with her when Paul passed away. After which, Cheryl tried to gain guardianship of Meadow, who was set to inherit Paul's entire $25 million fortune.

Cheryl cited that Sorteros wasn't fit to raise Meadow because of alcoholic tendencies; Rebecca was reportedly arrested in 2003 and 2013 for drink driving. But before things and headlines on the Cheryl vs.Rebecca turned nastier, the two-party involved resolved their issues. "Meadow will live with her mother and they will be getting a place in California," an insider had reported. The agreement also entailed Rebecca enrolling in a rehabilitation program.    
 

Even though Meadow was happy with the result, the model has since kept a proper distance from her father's side of the family. She doesn't talk to Paul's brothers, Cody Walker and Caleb Walker, nor does Meadow keep a close bond with her grandmom. "The family is heartbroken about the whole thing," a source said.
