Jordana has become synonymous with the Fast & Furious brand, and like co-star Vin Diesel, she was left devastated by the death of her on-screen husband Paul Walker.

Speaking about the loss of Paul - who tragically in 2013 - she told Cosmopolitan: 'It's the most difficult, intense thing I've ever been through.

'We shared so many years of friendship, and he embraced life so much.'

And while the Paul's death clearly had a profound effect on Jordana, the leggy Latina has just started filming a brand-new series, American Crime Story.

The show is an anthology series that is centered around some of history's most famous criminals - including the now infamous OJ Simpson trial.

The project has attracted a whole host of names including David Schwimmer, John Travolta and Cuba Gooding Jr..
