Vin Diesel on Paul Walker death: 'I lost my other half'

Diesel has since written a message to his fans on Facebook, in which he honoured his bond with Walker.

The actor wrote: "When I heard, I immediately flew back to California, and went directly from the plane to his mother's house...

"I thought they needed my strength, but realised when I got there and broke down before his family, that it was I who needed theirs.

"His mother hugged me and said, 'I am so sorry'... I said, 'Sorry? You're the mother who lost a son?'... She said, 'Yes, but you lost your other half'."
