Paris Hilton saw her Malibu home ‘Burn to the ground’ amid wildfires in LA

Paris Hilton shared her reaction to seeing her Malibu home burn to the ground live on TV news.

Hilton is one of many celebrities who have lost their homes as a result of the fires that have wreaked havoc in the Los Angeles area and caused the evacuation of at least 70,000 people. Five people have been killed in the wildfires have been considered the most destructive in Los Angeles history.

Hilton shared a long message about how hard it was to see her lose her family home where her son took his first steps.

“Sitting with my family watching the news and watching our home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV is something no one should ever have to experience,” the reality TV star, 43, wrote on X, formerly Twitter, along with a clip from news station KABC showing her destroyed home.

Hilton said she was “heartbroken beyond words” by the damage to the home she shares with Carter Reum and children Phoenix and London, both 2 years old.

“This home was where we built so many precious memories,” Hilton said. “This is where Phoenix took its first steps and where we dreamed of building a lifetime of memories with London.”

She described the loss as “overwhelming” but she “held onto the gratitude that my family is safe.”

“My heart and prayers go out to every family affected by these fires. To all the people who have lost their homes, their memories and their beloved pets,” Hilton added. “My heart goes out to those still in danger or grieving greater loss. The devastation is unimaginable. To know so many are waking up today without the place they called home is truly heartbreaking.”

The socialite then explained how her advocacy group, 11:11 Media Impact, reached out to nonprofits “to figure out how we can best support the communities affected by these fires” to make “a meaningful difference for them, who needs it “most.”

Newsweek contacted 11:11 Media Impact via email for comment.

Hilton also labeled the “brave firefighters and first responders” as “true heroes” and said she was grateful for the sacrifices they made.

She also urged people in the affected areas to follow evacuation orders.

“Let’s protect each other and hold on to hope that these fires will soon be put out. Sending you all so much love and strength. We’re in this together, LA. Hug your loved ones a little tighter tonight. You never know when everything could change,” Hilton wrote.
