As part of the divorce condition, Cheryl is asking her estranged husband of 30 years for spousal support.
Paul Walker, "The Fast and the Furious" star, died in a car crash last year on a Thanksgiving weekend in California. He was a passenger on a 2005 Porsche Carrera GT which was driven by his friend Roger Rodas. The vehicle was reported to have run between 80 and 93 mph when it impacted a power pole and several trees along the road.
Coroner's report indicated that the accident was caused by speeding.
"Investigators determined the cause of the fatal solo-vehicle collision was unsafe speed for the roadway conditions," Los Angeles County Sherriff's Commander Mike Parker told CNN.
The movie actor's estate was estimated to value between $16 million and $25 million, which is to be inherited solely by his 15-year-old daughter Meadow Walker.
