Meadow broke the heartbreaking news on her social media page, sharing an image of a joint statement housing the former couple's desire for privacy amid their separation.

Meadow was not open to further discussion about her dissolved union, as she limited the comments on the Instagram post. Nonetheless, a few fans slid into the section to show their support and even received sweet responses from the entertainer.

"Nothing but love and respect for you!! You are amazing, love you!" Someone chimed, with another writing: "Sending you a big hug and kiss sweetie." More fans penned their love and dropped red heart emojis for Meadow, who responded with similar sentiments like "Love you angel" and "ily."

The model first made waves with her relationship when Thornton-Allan popped the big question in August 2021. The duo wasted no time heading down the aisle a few months later in October, and their private ceremony caused a stir thanks to Vin Diesel.

The Hollywood veteran — best known for starring in the "Fast and Furious" franchise with Meadow's late father — took up his longtime pal's role for the occasion. Diesel walked the bride down the aisle in a clip shared on her Instagram page.

The "Riddick" star and Meadow flaunted a close relationship as they held hands while walking down the oceanside ceremony. Their bond was similarly captured when they posed for the camera and interacted with Diesel's two daughters, who were dressed up as part of the bridal train.

The intimate ceremony featured other "Fast and Furious" cast members, with Diesel's on-screen sister Jordana Brewster in attendance. The black-and-white clip showed the actress showering Meadow in love, wrapping the blushing bride in a warm hug.

These sweet moments, amongst others, took place in the Dominican Republic with mostly family and a few friends in attendance due to the pandemic. Unfortunately, the groom's loved ones couldn't attend the ceremony because of the traveling restrictions.

"We couldn't have imagined it to be any more perfect and personal—and honestly, it was easy and simple. Louis and I knew exactly what we wanted from the start. It was a very intimate celebration."
