Vin Diesel reportedly has another little guardian on the way!

A rep for the actor did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

The ultra-private “Furious 7� star, 47, and the model already have two children together: daughter Hania Riley, 6, and son Vincent Sinclair, 4.

The child is expected to arrive around the same time “Furious 7� hits theaters on April 3, the Hollywood Reporter said, and Universal reportedly canceled the flick’s flashy Abu Dhabi premiere because of the actor-producer’s impending daddy duties.

In November, on the first anniversary of his “Fast and Furious� costar Paul Walker’s death, the husky-voiced actor took to Facebook to share a photo of the late actor and daughter Hania, explaining how Walker had influenced his own fatherhood.

“He was a part of so much in my life ... long personal talks with my mother or babysitting the Alpha Angel ... he took a certain pride in being uncle Pablo ... after all, we were filming a scene in FF4 the day she was born, and he being the only one I told, encouraged me to go in and cut the umbilicle cord,� he wrote.

“He was an important part of my transition into fatherhood ... that healthy family member, with the most positive outlook on life ... A year ago today ... a year of mourning ... and his absence still leaves me speechless. We miss you Pablo...�
