Meeting Rob Lowe: Marriage and Two Sons

Sheryl Berkoff first met her future husband, actor Rob Lowe, when they went out on a blind date in 1983. They began dating much later, when Sheryl began working as a key makeup artist for Rob’s movie ‘Bad Influences’ in 1990.

Incidentally, Sheryl had previously dated Emilio Estevez, who was Lowe’s friend and co-actor. According to some sources, it was Emilio who had introduced Sheryl to Lowe.

Sheryl Berkoff and Rob Lowe got married on July 22, 1991. In an interview later, Rob agreed that Sheryl was his first experiment with monogamy. He also gave her the credit of putting him on the right path by helping him get over his alcohol addiction.

In fact, just before their marriage, Rob had been to rehabilitation centers but could not get over his addiction. However, with Sheryl’s motivation, Rob finally became sober. Some sources believe Sheryl refused to marry him until he got over his alcoholism.

They had their first child, son Matthew Edward Lowe, on September 24, 1993. They then had their second son, John Owen Lowe, on November 6, 1995. While John made it to ‘Stanford University’ and is now an actor and writer, Matthew graduated from ‘Duke University’ in 2016.

Though Sheryl is 3 years older than Rob, the age difference did not affect their relationship in any way. The couple has had their rough patches. For instance, in 1988, Rob was dragged into a sex scandal when a videotape emerged showing him having sex with a 16-year-old girl. However, they have sought the help of therapists and have communicated effectively to continue with their marriage.
