Mark Sinclair, famously known as Vin Diesel, is one of those celebrities that you just can’t help but like. Despite usually playing a tough guy in movies, there’s so much more to him. In fact, there’s a whole different side of him that we don’t get to see too often. He’s a great father and partner to his girlfriend; he loves his family and his fans, who he also considers family; and his social media is filled with positivity. Oh, and he’s also a Dungeons & Dragons nerd.
Bright Side absolutely loves Vin Diesel, and we’re happy to give you a little sneak peek of the other side of him that’s not always shown on the big screen.
1. He’s a great father.
Vin Diesel doesn’t showcase his personal life too much on social media, but when he does, his posts are always full of love and smiles, and everyone can tell that he’s a family man! He and his partner, Paloma Jimenez, have 3 children: Hania, Vincent, and Pauline, and they’re his world. He says that his pride in his kids is through the roof and that he is proud of them all the time.
2. He’s a loving partner.
The 53-year-old actor met his partner in 2007 and they’re still together. This shows how special their bond is and that they make a great pair. In an interview, the movie star didn’t hold back when talking about his admiration for his partner: “I’m speechless, she’s so stunningly beautiful. She’s my rock, she’s so stunningly beautiful on the inside. She’s everything, she’s the perfect mother,” said Vin Diesel.
3. His looks may be deceiving — he’s actually a big softie.
Aside from being a family man, he’s an all-around good guy that’s always smiling and loving on his fans who love him back. He often reposts fan-made art on his Instagram profile and never misses an opportunity to thank his fans and call them his family. His humbleness is one of the many things that has earned him such a big and loyal fan base.
4. At the end of the day, he’s still one of Hollywood’s bad boys.
He might be a sweet, family-loving guy, but we can’t forget that he was made for the bad boy roles he plays. Most famous for his role as Dominick Toretto in the Fast and Furious franchise, he plays the typical strong, alpha male type that everyone loves in movies, with a soft spot for his family and friends.
5. He often donates to charity.
Vin Diesel does a lot of charity work, and just a few years ago, he teamed up with Cody Walker and they raised over $100,000 dollars for the late Paul Walker’s Reach Out WorldWide charity. ROWW is a disaster relief nonprofit that aims to help people all over the world when a natural disaster strikes.
6. He’s not just a talented actor.
Vin Diesel is not just a great actor — he was quite the versatile entertainer when he was younger. You might be surprised to know that he used to be a breakdancer as a teenager. Yes, you read that correctly, but don’t take our word for it — check his moves out for yourself! But his talents don’t stop there. The actor is also a singer with quite a voice!
