Actor Chad Lowe and Producer Kim Painter Mourn Death of 13-Year-Old Daughter Fiona

Actor Chad Lowe and his wife, producer Kim Painter, announced that their 13-year-old daughter Fiona has died. They remembered her as loving, smart and creative, and passionate about dance, and said she was cherished by her parents and sisters, Mabel and Nixie. The family asked for privacy as they grieve and shared the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline for people experiencing mental-health difficulties. They have not disclosed the circumstances of Fiona’s death, and reports alleging suicide have not been confirmed by the family. Fiona’s school and community are mourning her, with support being made available to students and staff, and her grandfather, Charles “Chuck” Lowe, paid tribute to her on social media.
A source described Fiona as sweet, quiet and kind, saying dance was her biggest passion and that she was consistently kind to other students. Many of her friends were absent from school to grieve.
The family had also been coping with the loss of their Los Angeles home in the Palisades wildfire. Chad Lowe previously praised how his daughters handled visiting the wreckage, saying he was in awe of their spirit and resilience.
Fiona’s full name was Fiona Hepler Lowe. She was born in November 2012 and had recently turned 13.
