The This is us star – whose wife, Jarah Marianois pregnant with the couple’s first baby – confirmed he was among those affected by the Los Angeles wildfires when he returned to his home to find it destroyed by the blaze.

“Oh man,” he said CBS News Jan. 9 while driving up to what was left of his Malibu estate. “Toast.”

The 47-year-old described the sight of the devastation of the Palisades fire as “heavy” as he fought back tears.

“You start thinking about all the memories and the different parts of the house and whatnot,” he continued, “and then you see your neighbors’ houses and everything around and your heart just breaks.”

Milo – who revealed he and his wife had prepared a nursery for their unborn child before the fire – said he watched the flames overtake his home on security cameras before snapping back to the reality of the situation.
