For nearly as long as the moviegoing public has been aware of Vin Diesel, he’s had a special woman by his side. The Fast & Furious star, who’s remained with the franchise playing Dominic Toretto, patriarch of the unofficial “family,” since the 2001 debut film, has been romantically linked with Paloma Jiménez since 2007.
But through almost two decades together, they've decided to keep things very low-key by Hollywood terms. Yes, they make the occasional red carpet appearance. And unlike Post Malone’s fiancée, we know her actual name. We also know that she once worked as a model. Still, the two tend to keep their private life just that. (She’s not on social media.)
Here, we break down everything to know about the Guardians of the Galaxy and Chronicles of Riddick star’s longtime relationship with Jiménez, from her background to marriage rumors, their kids, and more.

Who Is Paloma Jiménez?
A Mexican native, Jiménez, 41, was born in coastal Acapulco. She worked as a model before her relationship with Diesel revved up. Jiménez appeared as the cover girl of Maxim Mexico in January 2005 and Max Mexico in August 2006. Additionally, she’s walked runways for several designers including Alberto Rodriguez and Carlo Demichelis, according to People.
What’s more, despite being tied to one of the main faces of Fast & Furious, Jiménez decides to stay out of the limelight. She’s reportedly not on social media, at least not with a public-facing account, and has been quiet about her partnership with Diesel. Now, Diesel is very much on social media, but shies away from talking about his personal life, keeping his posts mainly to promoting work like his seemingly endless Fast & Furious output.
However, the couple has been photographed on the red carpet, notably for movie premieres including Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 and Riddick.

So, Are They Married?
As far as the media knows, Diesel and Jiménez are longtime partners who have chosen not to dip into matrimony. Again, that’s as far as we know, as the two like to keep details of their love life locked down.
Parade reports that Diesel is domestic partners with Jimenez. The rest gets murkier. We don’t even know how they met.
"I’m not gonna put it out there on a magazine cover like some other actors,” Diesel said of this area of his life. “I come from the Harrison Ford, Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro, Al Pacino code of silence.”
What About Kids?
In addition to 18 years of staying together, Diesel and Jiménez have expanded their family, and we’re not just talking about Fast & Furious costars. Diesel, born Mark Sinclair, and his partner share three children together: daughter Hania "Similce" Riley Sinclair, born in 2008; son Vincent Sinclair, born in 2010; and Pauline, born in 2015. The youngest, Pauline, was named in tribute to her father’s Fast & Furious pal, the late Paul Walker, following the sorely missed star’s death in a car crash in 2013.
If you want insight into the couple's tight-lipped intimacy, look no further than Diesel’s comment to Parade years ago talking about how he was slow to find the woman for him.
“While I was doing Pacifier, it really started to bring out this desire to have a child,” he said. “It took a couple years after that to find the right person and to hopefully be mature enough to be a great father which is really all you want to do.”
