- Chad Lowe and his wife, producer Kim Painter, said they are "deeply heartbroken" over the death of their 13-year-old daughter Fiona
- The family described Fiona as "a loving young girl who was smart, creative and loved to dance" and "the light of our lives," adored by her sisters
- The family's statement to Page Six and People ended with a reference to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, urging those struggling with mental health to call or text 988
- Chad Lowe won an Emmy in 1993 for the TV show Life Goes On and has also appeared in Pretty Little Liars and Supergirl; he is the brother of actor Rob Lowe
- The couple are also parents to daughters Mabel, 17, and Nixie, 10
Why it matters: The family's statement closes with a reference to the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline — a line easy to miss in the celebrity grief coverage but one that frames the 13-year-old's death in a specific context. With two surviving daughters, Mabel and Nixie, the family's explicit request for privacy underscores that they are navigating a very public loss with younger siblings still in the home.
