Kids say the darndest things! Especially via text.
Vin Diesel revealed on NBC's The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Wednesday an adorable SMS message he received from his and girlfriend Paloma Jimenez's eldest child.
"My 7-year-old daughter has an iPhone now," the 48-year-old actor said, holding his own device. "And she just texted me this, if I can read this to you. 'Hi Daddy, I love you so much. I am so proud of you. I miss you so much. I believe in you, that you will make an awesome movie. I love you so much, I miss you so much. Love, Similche."
Vin Diesel, who was born Mark Sinclair, had said on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno in 2009 that their daughter, who also goes by Hania Riley Sinclair, is named after an Iberian princess.
Vin Diesel and Jimenez also share son Vincent Sinclair, 5, and baby daughter Pauline, who was named after his late friend and Fast & Furious co-star, Paul Walker. The two announced her birth in March and the actor shared an adorable photo of her on Instagram. He also posted another cute pic of baby Pauline in August.
On The Tonight Show, Vin Diesel also talked about the upcoming eighth Fast & Furious movie, Furious 8, reiterating it will be set in "New York, baby!"
"Something that people don't know is the first movie came from a Vibe article that was about street races in New York, and the director and producer at the time reset the whole movie in L.A.," the actor said. "But the Vibe article that the whole franchise was started from actually originated in New York. So, we're finally bringing it back home, baby!"
He also confirmed Furious 8 will be the start of a trilogy. The eighth film is set for release on April 14, 2017 and will be directed by F. Gary Gray, who helmed this past summer's hit biopic Straight Outta Compton.
Vin Diesel can be seen next in the new film The Last Witch Hunter, which is set for release on Oct. 23.
