For years, Chad Lowe’s social media offered glimpses into a family life filled with birthdays, outings, sunsets and everyday moments shared with his three daughters.
Fiona, the middle daughter of Chad and Kim Painter, was just 13 when she died on September 29, 2026.
The family announced her death in a heartbreaking statement, describing Fiona as “smart, creative and loved to dance.”
Authorities were called to the family’s home at 12:10 a.m., according to details not included in the initial statement.
The medical examiner’s report later confirmed her cause of death as suicide.

The family said Fiona was deeply loved by her sisters and parents, describing her as “the light of their lives.” They asked for prayers and privacy during this difficult time.
They also shared information about the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline.
