As a result of the catastrophic fires in Los Angeles, Ricki Lake’s house has now been destroyed.
The former talk show host, who is 56 years old, made the announcement on Instagram, “It’s all gone. 💔.”
After mentioning that one of her friends had made “a valiant and brave effort” to rescue the Malibu property, she proceeded by saying, “I can’t believe I am typing these words.”
“Ross and I were bereft of our ideal domicile. The phrase “dream home” does not adequately describe this property.
In her letter, the actress from Hairspray described the location as their “heaven on earth” and “the place where we planned to grow old all together.” “We never took our heavenly spot on the bluff overlooking our beloved malibu for granted, not even for one second,” she said in her statement.
In a statement that described the loss as “immeasurable,” Lake said that the location in question was the location where she and her husband Ross Burningham had tied the knot in January of 2022.
During the month of August 2019, the presenter of the Raised by Ricki podcast announced on her Facebook page that she was “finally” beginning construction on the housing of her dreams.
She said on her Instagram account at the time, “My new #malibu home is happening!” Although I purchased this holy land five and a half years ago, it is just now beginning to take form. Love, patience, surrender, and gratitude I am really ecstatic. In all seriousness. Excited to be in Malibu, California!
There were fires that broke out all throughout Southern California on Tuesday, January 7, particularly in the Pacific Palisades and Eaton Canyon districts. At the time of Wednesday, January 8, the Palisades fire had spread to 11,802 acres, making it the most damaging fire in the history of Los Angeles County. According to the Associated Press, the number of fatalities has now increased to five.
There are a number of famous people who live in the region who were compelled to leave their houses, and some of them, like Lake, even became homeless.
“I grieve along with all of those suffering during this apocalyptic event,” the former participant on The Masked Singer remarked. “I am completely heartbroken.” “I am praying for all of my neighbors, my friends, my community, the animals, the firefighters, and the first responders,” she said. Other than that, I don’t have much more to say about how we managed to get away with Dolly.
“For the time being, I am lamenting. 💔💔💔,” she ended.
