A parade of famous faces graced the graduation ceremony this past Wednesday at a prestigious Los Angeles school. Among the attendees were Vin Diesel, Seal, Joel McHale, and Kevin Garnett, all gathered to celebrate the accomplishments of the students.
This event took place at Campbell Hall, a lavish Episcopal school nestled in Studio City. Known for its impressive roster of alumni, including Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen, the school charges a hefty $57,080 annual tuition for students in grades seven through twelve.
Vin Diesel, known for his tough-guy roles, was seen in a dazzling pair of sparkly trousers, attending to witness his daughter, Hania ‘Similce’ Sinclair, receive her diploma. At 18, Hania is the eldest of Diesel’s three children with his partner, Mexican model Paloma Jimenez. The couple, together since 2007, also shares two younger children: Vincent, 16, and Pauline, 10.
In a departure from his usual action-packed persona, Diesel exuded fatherly pride, embracing Hania warmly for a photograph—capturing a moment of familial joy amidst the glamour of Hollywood’s elite.
He welcomed Hania as well as two other children called Vincent, 16, and Pauline, 10, with Mexican model Paloma Jimenez, whom he has been involved with since 2007.
Trading in his steely action star exterior for an image of paternal gentleness, Diesel glowed with pride as he wrapped an arm around Hania for a photo.

Hania has already broken into acting, having held a voice role on Fast & Furious Spy Racers, an animated spin-off of her father’s best-known film franchise.
Meanwhile Richards, 57, and Umansky, 55, presented a unified front to celebrate the graduation of their youngest daughter Portia, 18.
Although the former couple separated in 2023, they have retained an amicable co-parenting relationship for their four daughters, with whom they still take joint holidays.
Portia’s graduation comes nine months after her parents attended her elder sister Alexia’s wedding, projecting an image of gracious bonhomie.
Their diplomatic approach to the collapse of their marriage remained in force this Wednesday, when Richards and Umansky took photos with their daughters.
Portia, clad in the traditional cap and gown, beamed in the group shots with her mother at her side and her father standing just behind them.
She has already spent years in the public eye, featuring on several episodes of her mother’s reality show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
Seal, meanwhile, could be seen walking into the ceremony hand in hand with his girlfriend of five years Laura Strayer, who was previously his assistant.

Among the past ‘nepo babies’ who graduated from prestige institution is Denzel Washington’s son John David Washington, who achieved Hollywood success in his own right in 2018 with the Spike Lee picture BlacKkKlansman.
Several notable alumni attended the school before their stardom, such as director Paul Thomas Anderson, NFL player Josh Cuevas and the NBA’s Jrue Holiday.
