Chad Lowe's family loses Palisades home before daughter Fiona's death

Actor and director Chad Lowe announced Tuesday that his 13-year-old daughter, Fiona Hepler Lowe, has died, describing her as "the light of our eyes" in a statement to People magazine. The couple urged anyone struggling with mental health to contact the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline. Fiona's death comes after the family lost their Pacific Palisades home in the January 2025 Palisades Fire, which destroyed over 6,800 structures and forced tens of thousands to evacuate. Lowe had documented the devastation and their recovery, praising his daughters' resilience and calling the experience "terrible" and life-turning "upside down." Lowe, executive producer of "9-1-1: Nashville," had recently marked 23 years of sobriety and his 16th wedding anniversary. He is survived by his wife Kim Painter and daughters Mabel, 17, and Nixie, 10.
