Chad Lowe was pictured alongside his wife and daughters at a poignant family gathering on Saturday, less than two weeks after announcing the heartbreaking loss of his daughter Fiona, aged 13.
The 58-year-old actor joined wife Kim Painter and their daughters Mabel, 17, and Nixie, 10, to watch his nephew Matthew Lowe marry Emily Markus in Santa Barbara, California, on 10 October.
The photographs show the family seated together among the wedding guests, with Chad's older brother, father-of-the-groom Rob Lowe, just a few rows ahead.

Chad Lowe remembers daughter Fiona
The family gathering came days after Chad returned to Instagram Stories on 8 October, sharing a reflective clip from Olivia Hunt's On Healing podcast.
The post featured author Gerry Hussey discussing spirituality and connection. Chad reposted the footage without adding a message of his own.
Fiona was the middle of Chad and Kim's three daughters, between older sister Mabel and younger sister Nixie.
When announcing her death, the family remembered a creative young girl who loved to dance and was cherished by her parents and sisters. Their statement also asked for privacy as they faced their loss.

Their tribute ended with a simple expression of how much she meant to them: "In fact, she was the light of our lives."
