Hollywood veteran Rob Lowe, once the quintessential teen heartthrob, turned the spotlight away from his acting career to celebrate a deeply personal milestone — his youngest son John’s 30th birthday. The 61-year-old actor shared a touching message on social media that instantly went viral, leaving fans marveling at how closely father and son resemble one another.
The “St. Elmo’s Fire” and “Parks and Recreation” star took to Instagram on November 9, 2025, to post a heartfelt tribute that read, “Happy 30th birthday to you, my beloved JohnOwen! So very proud of you on so many levels. And love you more than I’m able to say. May your official entry into adulthood bring you the perspective to be nice to me on social media!”
Accompanying the sweet note was a relaxed photo of John, shirtless on a couch and surrounded by two dogs, which quickly drew waves of admiration from fans. The comments section flooded with praise, with one user writing, “Happy Birthday to your Son who def has a little of The Rob Lowe Alain Delon looks!” Another added, “He’s got Dad’s good looks,” while a third exclaimed, “Happy 30th Birthday to your clone!”
John, who frequently appears alongside his father at red carpet events, has long been recognized for his uncanny resemblance to Rob. Whether attending premieres or industry galas, the duo often turns heads for looking nearly identical — a fact fans eagerly point out with every appearance.
Behind the glamour, the Lowes share a deep, supportive bond. Rob and his wife of 34 years, Sheryl Berkoff, have built a strong family foundation centered around love and resilience. Their enduring marriage has weathered fame, recovery, and personal growth, standing as one of Hollywood’s rare long-term success stories.
