Mabel Lowe, the 17-year-old daughter of actor Chad Lowe, posted her first public tribute Saturday to her younger sister Fiona, who died by suicide at 13. Mabel shared throwback family photos on Instagram, writing that she wishes her sister’s short time here had been easier and that she hopes Fiona’s mind is now at ease. Her caption ended with six simple words:“I love you so much, Fiona.”
Chad Lowe and his wife Kim Painter announced Fiona’s death on September 29, describing her as smart, creative, and a girl who was adored by her sisters. The couple also share daughter Nixie, 10. Chad’s father, Chuck Lowe, also mourned his granddaughter in a social media post, and the family has asked for prayers and privacy during this time.
Along with their statement, the family encouraged anyone struggling with mental health to reach out for help. The 988 Suicide&Crisis Lifeline is available by call or text, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, at no cost. Have you ever checked in on someone who seemed okay but wasn’t?
