Jeff Bridges and Mel Gibson are among the celebrities who have lost homes in the deadly wildfires raging in the Los Angeles area.
Bridges, who won an Oscar for Crazy Heart and stars in the TV series The Old Man, has lost his home in Malibu, which he and his siblings inherited from their parents.
Oscar-winning film star Gibson also revealed his Malibu home has been “completely toasted” while he was away recording Joe Rogan’s podcast.
Actor Sir Anthony Hopkins, winner of two Oscars for The Silence of the Lambs and The Father, and his wife lost two homes in the Pacific Palisades fire, sources confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter.
In a message posted on Instagram, he said “the only thing we take with us is the love we give”.
Paris Hilton, Billy Crystal, Adam Brody and Milo Ventimiglia are among other celebrities who have lost homes.
Ventimiglia, best known for his roles in Gilmore Girls and Heroes, was filmed on CBS Evening News returning to his burnt-out house.
The 47-year-old acknowledged that his character, Jack Pearson, in TV series This Is Us suffers from smoke inhalation after his home burns down in the hit series. “It’s not lost on me, life imitating art,” he said.
Hotel heiress Hilton confirmed earlier this week she had lost her home in Malibu.
In an Instagram post on Friday, Hilton uploaded a video of what was left of her home. “The heartbreak is truly indescribable,” she said, adding that her family was safe.
