Life & Style has exclusively learned that Vin Diesel cheated on his girlfriend of seven years, Paloma Jiménez, who is also the mother of his three children.

“Vin has a double life,” a source claims. “About a year ago, he met this girl at a party in NYC. They hit if off, one thing led to another and before you knew it, they were making out.”

Vin, Paloma and their three children last month.

The source adds, “That little fling turned into something more, which lasted for a couple of months. Vin and the woman had a whirlwind romance, based on sex.

“Vin’s secret was safe (until now),” the source explains to Life & Style, “because the woman was also in a long-term relationship.”
