Former teen heartthrob Rob Lowe melted hearts with an Instagram tribute to his youngest son,

John Owen, who turned 30 on November 9, 2025. Sharing a playful photo of John lounging shirtless with two dogs, Lowe wrote, “Happy 30th birthday to you, my beloved JohnOwen! So very proud of you… May your official entry into adulthood bring you the perspective to be nice to me on social media!” Fans flooded the post, amazed by how much John resembles his famous dad. “He’s got Dad’s good looks. Happy Birthday to your clone!” one user wrote, while another joked that he looked like “a little Rob Lowe with Alain Delon looks.”

Rob shares John Owen and his older son, David, 32, with his wife of 34 years, Sheryl Lowe. The couple met in the 1980s and reconnected while filming Bad Influence in 1990. Sheryl, a former makeup artist and now jewelry designer, stood by Rob through his struggles with addiction, helping him achieve lasting sobriety.

Now, Rob credits family life as his greatest achievement. “I was super ready to coach Little League, carve pumpkins, and read books. I loved every minute,” he said. In 2022, Rob and John Owen co-created the Netflix comedy Unstable, inspired by their real-life dynamic.

Beyond the laughs, both men have been open about overcoming addiction and supporting each other’s recovery. From fame to family, the Lowes’ journey shows that true success lies not in Hollywood stardom—but in love, resilience, and connection.
