Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag lose their home to wildfire in Los Angeles
Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag witnessed their house engulfed in flames amid the ongoing wildfires in Pacific Palisades, California, and both took to social media to share the shocking experience.
Pratt posted videos on Snapchat showing his evacuation as destructive wildfires, fueled by strong winds, forced over 30,000 residents to leave their homes. He also shared footage from his security cameras capturing the moment his house was consumed by fire.
“I’m watching our house burn down on the security cameras,” Pratt, 41, expressed in a Snapchat clip recorded from his car.
Later that same day, Montag, 38, shared an emotional video on Snapchat, tearfully stating how heartbroken she was that their home was gone.
Earlier, while grocery shopping, Montag confirmed that “our house did burn down,” but reassured fans that “we’re out safe, and that’s what matters most.” The couple has two children.
Stephanie Pratt, Spencer’s sister, shared on Instagram that their father “did his best to save my brother’s house, but the wind was too strong, and he couldn’t do anything.”
YSL News has contacted representatives for both Pratt and Montag.
