Jennie Garth celebrates major milestone with her and ex-husband Peter Facinelli's mini-me daughter Fiona
Jennie Garth enjoyed a special day recently with her youngest daughter Fiona Eve Facinelli to celebrate a milestone for the teen.
Jennie was overjoyed to celebrate her mini-me daughter's graduation from Notre Dame High School in Los Angeles ' tony Sherman Oaks neighborhood.
The proud mom — who tried to make amends with a fired costar recently — shared a group of photos of the sunny, beautiful day in the San Fernando Valley.
Fiona is the youngest of the daughters she shares with her ex-husband Peter Facinelli. In addition to Fiona, she shares Luca, 28, and Lola, 22, with the Twilight series actor.
'She did it!! My baby girl graduated high school!,' the Beverly Hills 90210 star's caption began.
'I am so beyond proud of her!! My heart is filled with so much excitement to see her fly! I love you so much.'
She then echoed one of her most famous lines from 90210, 'She chose herself!'
Jennie shared photos from the graduation ceremony and the party at home afterwards.
She also shared a shot of Fiona with a sign behind her that said: 'We are so proud of you.'
Luca and Lola both attended New York University for undergrad, but there's no news yet as to where Fiona may be going to college.
In January, Jennie and her girls had quite a scare when they had to evacuate their home.
Her ex-husband Peter and his family took her in and luckily her home was spared in the fires.
Jennie shared a tearful video afterwards in which she was thankful for her family, including her ex and his family.
She expressed how grief stricken she was. 'I am deeply saddened for our city and just feel numb,' Jennie said.
'Our home was spared but so much to clean up and ready to get active to help our neighbors and friends and fellow Angelenos.'
She then said her husband Dave Abrams had been 'amazing transporting all our bags and boxes, loading and unloading.'
Jennie ended with: 'Just keep everyone here who is suffering in your heart and prayers. I am grateful we are all ok and have a home to return to. This will effect people differently, so reach out, and offer to help, it really does mean so much.
'Thank you for all the love that is being sent this way.'
Facinelli and Jennie met on the set of their 1995 movie An Unfinished Affair and tied the knot in January 2001.
Facinelli filed for divorce in March 2012, which was finalized in June 2013, after 11 years of marriage and three daughters.
Garth shares three daughters Luca, 27, Lola, 21, and Fiona, 18 with Facinelli, 50.
In October Jennie shared she suffered two miscarriages with her husband Dave Abrams shortly after they got married.
She and the 43-year-old actor — who wed in 2015 — opened up about the difficult time they went through on an episode of her iHeartPodcast, I Choose Me with Jennie Garth.
The star remembered feeling 'ashamed' after not being able to give Abrams 'a baby boy.'
'I think at that time, I was feeling really down on myself, really ashamed, feeling like I was disappointing you, like I wasn't able to carry a pregnancy with you, who I loved,' she remembered.
'And I had had these three beautiful daughters with Peter, and you had stepped in and become such a wonderful stepdad to them. And so I remember I so, so, so wanted to give you a baby boy,' she said.
Jennie admitted that she doesn't remember a lot from that time, as she's blocked it out.
'What point in our relationship did we start talking about maybe wanting to have kids together?, Jennie asked her husband.
'Well, if you remember, we got married on July 11,' Abrams replied. 'And then we got pregnant that same month.
'We got back from Carmel. We went to a little mini honeymoon to Carmel up in Monterey. And like two weeks later, you were pregnant, and then that lasted almost four months. And then, you know, we found out,' Abrams said.
'What do you mean?' Garth asked her husband. 'We found out that there was no heartbeat,' he said. Garth asked, 'Did you feel upset with me?'
'No,' he replied. 'I wasn't upset, I was just down.'
