Paris Hilton shares devastating aftermath of LA wildfire as she returns to home she watched burn down on live TV

Paris Hilton has said she is 'devastating beyond words' as she shared the heartbreaking aftermath of the Los Angeles wildfires which reduced her home to ash.

The star took to Instagram earlier this week to reveal she had watched her Malibu place ‘burn to the ground’ on the television.

Hilton is one of the many stars and thousands of people who have been affected by the fires currently raging across the Californian county.

Five fires are still burning in the area with at least 10 people dead, thousands of structures dead and one man detained on suspicion of starting the latest blaze.

Hilton shared a video of the utter destruction of her place, giving an idea of the total devastation being experienced by residents across LA regardless of status or name.

With very little of the structure remaining in place, the clip shows the fallen walls and ashen remains of the star’s coastal house.

“I’m standing here in what used to be our home, and the heartbreak is truly indescribable. When I first saw the news, I was in complete shock—I couldn’t process it. But now, standing here and seeing it with my own eyes, it feels like my heart has shattered into a million pieces,” she wrote.

“This house wasn’t just a place to live— It was where we dreamed, laughed, and created the most beautiful memories as a family. It was where Phoenix’s little hands made art that I’ll cherish forever, where love and life filled every corner. To see it reduced to ashes… it’s devastating beyond words.

“What breaks my heart even more is knowing that this isn’t just my story. So many people have lost everything. It’s not just walls and roofs—it’s the memories that made those houses homes. It’s the photos, the keepsakes, the irreplaceable pieces of our lives.”

Hilton went on to acknowledge how she is ‘incredibly lucky’ as her ‘loved ones, babies and pets’ are safe.

“And beyond grateful to all the fire fighters, first responders and volunteers risking their lives to fight these fires,” she continued.

“To everyone who has sent love, prayers, and kindness—you’ve reminded me that even in the ashes, there is still beauty in this world. Thank you from the deepest part of my heart. And to everyone going through this pain, please know you’re not alone. We’re in this together. We will rebuild, we will heal, and we will rise stronger than before.

“Let this be a reminder to hold your loved ones close. Cherish the moments. Life can change in an instant, and it’s the love we share that truly matters. I’m sending all my love to everyone who is hurting right now.”
