Paul Walker\u2019s brother Cody Walker dissolved into tears remembering the late Fast and Furious star close to the 10-year anniversary of his death.<\/p>\n
The beloved actor was just 40 when he died in November 2013, after the car he was travelling in crashed into a lamp post in California.<\/p>\n
Since his death, The Lazarus Project star has been remembered in all sort of ways by his fans, family and friends, with even the Fast and Furious franchise giving him an emotional farewell.<\/p>\n
Now his bereaved brother Cody has shared how the family pay tribute to him each year, as he admits it\u2019s \u2018hard to believe\u2019 he\u2019s been gone 10 years.<\/p>\n
\u2018Usually \u2026 member of the family will take pictures of the sunrise of the sunset on his birthday,\u2019 Cody began.<\/p>\n
However he became overtaken by emotion and was forced to stop to wipe away tears during the interview with Mail Online, while Fast and Furious star Tyrese Gibson, sitting alongside him, quickly leapt up to give him a hug.<\/p>\n

Through tears, Cody regained his composure and lovingly recalled his brother playing \u2018such a big role in my life\u2019 as he was 15 years older than him and took him under his wing when their parents divorced, with Cody still in middle school at the time.<\/p>\n
\u2018I got to travel a lot with him, he\u2019d take me away. My mom would say, \u201cHe\u2019s got to come back for school,\u201d and [Walker] would just say, \u201cOh, he\u2019s learning everything he needs to learn with me.\u201d\u2018<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u2018He meant a lot of a lot of things to a lot of people. And we miss him a lot.\u2019<\/p>\n
And amid reports that Walker\u2019s daughter Meadow, 24, has become estranged from the family, Cody said they were \u2018very proud\u2019 of what she\u2019s achieved.<\/p>\n
\u201dShe\u2019s doing her own thing. She\u2019s pursuing that career. She\u2019s finding her success. Very proud of her right now.\u2019<\/p>\n
Meadow, who was 14 when her father died, appeared in Fast X and works as a supermodel, and married in 2021.<\/p>\n
Her appearance in the franchise followed in the footsteps of her famous father, who played Brian O\u2019Conner in five Fast movies and featured posthumously in Furious 7 in 2015, two years after his death.<\/p>\n
