Rob Lowe opened up about how he is supporting his brother, Chad Lowe, after his home was destroyed in the ongoing Los Angeles wildfires.
“My brother Chad, unfortunately, lost his home [and] everything in it,” Rob, 60, told Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday, January 22. “Entire neighborhood [is] gone. He has three little girls and all their friends [also] lost everything.”
Rob, who is the older Lowe brother, further told the outlet that Chad, 57, got “a lot of big brother hand-me-downs” in light of the fire destruction.
From our partners:
“He’s back to being 15 again,” the 9-1-1: Lone Star actor quipped. “He loves to dress like a dad [and] I give him a lot of crap. So, I took my most dad Hokas [shoes and passed them on].”

A string of wildfires broke out in Los Angeles earlier this month, devastating thousands of acres of property and killing over 25 individuals. Chad was among the residents who lost property in the blaze.
“This is what remains of 10 years of building our lives. Our hearts are broken, but we are comforted by all the well wishes, and offers of assistance,” Chad previously wrote in a January 11 Instagram upload, sharing photos of the rubble. “We are OK and will be OK. We have each other. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers.”
He added, “Our thoughts and prayers are with all the other people who are suffering from this unimaginable disaster. We are incredibly grateful to all the first responders, police, and firefighters, who put their lives on the line to protect all of us. They are truly heroes. Home really is where the heart is. Hold those you love close. Take care of each other. This crazy thing called ‘life’ is so damn precious.”
The note was signed by Chad and his wife, Kim, as well as their daughters, Mabel, Fiona and Nixie.
