Family remembers Chad Lowe's daughter Fiona, 13, after her death
Fiona Hepler Lowe, the 13-year-old daughter of actor Chad Lowe and Kim Painter, died on Sept. 29 at a hospital, according to Los Angeles County Medical Examiner records, with the case remaining open and no cause of death publicly disclosed. The family confirmed Fiona's death in a statement, remembering her as a "loving young girl" who was smart, creative, and loved to dance, and noting she was adored by her sisters and deeply loved by her parents. Her school community was informed of a student's death, with counselors made available to students and staff. Fiona was the middle child of three daughters, and her grandfather Charles "Chuck" Lowe also shared a public tribute. The family's Pacific Palisades home was destroyed in a wildfire in early 2025, with Chad previously praising his daughters' resilience and calling fatherhood his greatest joy.
