Actor Chad Lowe, 42, and his film producer girlfriend Kim Painter wed Saturday, PEOPLE reports. The small seaside ceremony took place at Terranea Resort in LA in front of a handful of family and friends.

Rob Lowe, Chad’s brother, served as the best man. Chad, who was married to Oscar-winner Hillary Swank from 1997 to 2006, has a 15-month-old daughter, Mabel, with his new wife. The little lady served as ring bearer at the wedding. PEOPLE notes that Mabel is “the first girl born into the Lowe family in nearly four generations.”

Lowe and Painter have been together since January 2007.

Hilary Swank divorced Chad Lowe back in 2006 after being married to him for nine years. But, she doesn’t feel that she failed in her marriage, it’s just the opposite. She says it was successful and that she can continue to have monogamous relationships.

She explained: “A lot of people look at divorce as a failure. I really look at my relationship with Chad as 14 years of success. I will carry him in my heart forever. He’s a part of me. Friends of mine and I talk about this. Does someone come into your life for a certain time, and then you are supposed to go your separate ways? There’s a part of me that thinks that’s true.

“There are friendships that we grow out of. But I believe in the long haul. I believe in having a monogamous relationship.”

That’s a definite adult approach to divorce. Good for her, it sounds like she’s got a good head on her shoulders.
