Ricki Lake lost her home.

On Wednesday, the actress and host shared a deeply emotional post revealing that she and her husband, Ross Burningham, have lost their ‘dream home’ in the devastating Pacific Palisades fire.

The wildfire, which started Tuesday morning, has already consumed 5,000 acres, as reported by Los Angeles Times. The Eaton fire, which ignited later that night in Pasadena, has burned 10,000 acres, while the Hurst fire near Sylmar has destroyed about 505 acres.

Reflecting on the loss of his home, Lake wrote, “This description ‘dream home’ is not sufficient. It was our heaven on earth. The place where we planned to grow old together.”

She added that the home, which sits on a bluff overlooking Malibu, was where they married three years ago and shared daily sunsets with their followers.

Lake also conveyed his solidarity with others affected by the disaster: “This loss is immeasurable. I grieve with all those suffering from this apocalyptic event. I pray for all my neighbors, my friends, my community, the animals, the firefighters , and first responders.”

She finished by mentioning that she and Ross escaped with their dog, Dolly, but little else. “For now I grieve,” she wrote, promising to share more in the future.

The series of photos Lake posted captured cherished memories of their home, underscoring the extent of their loss.
