Spencer Pratt Captures Photos As Pacific Palisades Wildfire Cause Mass Evacuations In Los Angeles
"The Hills" star Spencer Pratt captured pictures of the raging wildfires in Los Angeles on Tuesday.
The wildfires forced thousands to evacuate their homes in the Pacific Palisades after high wind gusts of 80 mph caused a brush fire to quickly spread more than 1,200 acres.
Residents living in the Pacific Palisades were warned to evacuate by the City of Los Angeles in the early afternoon after a fire spotted in the morning had quadrupled by the afternoon. Several celebrities live in the area and were also forced to evacuate.
According to KABC, a brush fire that began near West Sunset Boulevard has spread more than 1,200 acres. The fire quadrupled in size in four hours, and Pacific Palisades residents were ordered to evacuate by the City of Los Angeles.
More than 25,000 people live in the area, including reality television star Spencer Pratt.
Pratt shared pictures of the wildfires from his backyard on Tuesday, and several fires could be seen burning in the distance as he looked on.
"Against All Odds" star James Woods also shared footage from the deck of his home in the Pacific Palisades. The 77-year-old actor posted a video of the wildfires raging near his home on X with the caption, "Our deck three minutes ago."
"I’m standing in my driveway getting ready to evacuate,” he said, per USA Today. Woods added that planes were dropping water on the homes to fight the wildfires.
Woods also shared footage of the house burning two doors down from his on X. "Two houses from us…," he captioned the post.
The actor also thanked his well-wishers.
"To all the wonderful people who’ve reached out to us, thank you for being so concerned. Just letting you know that we were able to evacuate successfully," he wrote on X. "I do not know at this moment if our home is still standing, but sadly houses on our little street are not."
Woods later noted that he just learned his next-door neighbor's house was on fire but they had been "safely evacuated."
Actor Steve Guttenberg warned that people living in the area should not delay and "just get out." The 66-year-old "Cocoon" star spoke with KTLA on the scene.
“Don’t worry about your personal property," he said. "Just get out. Get your loved ones and get out.”
Guttenberg added that people leaving their cars should also leave their keys so that someone could move the cars out of the way in an effort to unblock intersections for the fire trucks.
“What’s happening is people take their keys with them as if they’re in a parking lot," he said. "This is not a parking lot. We really need people to move their cars... If you leave your car behind, leave the key in there so a guy like me can move your car so that these fire trucks can get up there."
"There are people stuck up there," added Guttenberg. "So we’re trying to clear Palisades Drive and I’m walking up there as far as I can moving cars... There are families up there, there are pets up there. There are people who really need help."
"It's really important for people to band together," he added.
Actor Eugene Levy was also safely evacuated from his Pacific Palisades home on Tuesday.
The "Schitt's Creek" star told The Los Angeles Times that he saw "black and intense" smoke as he fled the area.
"The smoke looked pretty black and intense over Temescal Canyon,” said Levy. “I couldn't see any flames, but the smoke was very dark.”
Red flag warnings will remain in effect until Thursday evening for Malibu and the Santa Monica Mountains Recreational Area.
Calabasas, the San Gabriel Valley, the San Fernando Valley, the Santa Clarita Valley, the San Gabriel Mountains, and the 5 Freeway and 14 Freeway corridors also have red flag warnings until Thursday.
Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag’s ‘Hills’ home featured in a 2019 episode has been destroyed by the California wildfires
The Pacific Palisades home famously featured in a 2019 episode of “The Hills: New Beginnings” has been reduced to ashes in a devastating wildfire, leaving Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag reeling from the loss, The Post has learned.
The home, where the couple gave viewers an intimate tour during the reboot of the hit reality series, became the latest casualty in the fast-moving California blaze that has forced more than 30,000 residents to evacuate.
During their 2019 episode, Pratt and Montag showcased their hillside retreat, perched on Chautauqua Boulevard with sweeping views of the Santa Monica Mountains.
The house became a symbol of their family life, from Pratt’s obsession with hummingbirds — sparked by Montag’s pregnancy — to their crystal collection and daily routines preparing meals in the kitchen.
The wildfire struck early Tuesday morning, engulfing the property in flames. Pratt, 41, shared a chilling video to his Instagram Story showing fire crews battling the blaze from above, but by mid-morning, the home was reported to have “burned to the ground,” according to TMZ.
Purchased in 2017 for $2.5 million with financial support from Pratt’s parents, the 2,300-square-foot property had been a cornerstone of the couple’s post-reality TV life.
It featured three bedrooms, two bathrooms, a chef’s kitchen, and an outdoor balcony that had become synonymous with their love for nature — particularly the hummingbirds they nurtured and often highlighted in their social media posts.
The couple, along with their two young sons, managed to escape unharmed, but sources say they are devastated.
Recent posts had shown their family enjoying the home during Christmas celebrations, feeding birds on the balcony and spending quiet moments in the living room.
The loss is especially poignant for fans of “The Hills,” who saw the house as more than just a residence. It was a centerpiece of their lives as parents, offering a glimpse into their attempt to balance reality TV fame with a peaceful family existence.
The blaze continues to rage, with thousands of homes at risk and the region grappling with the ongoing threat of destruction.
At least two have died from the fires so far, and at least 1,000 structures that have burned in the area.
Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag’s home burns down in devastating Los Angeles wildfire: report
Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag have reportedly lost their home to the wildfire tearing through Los Angeles.
The reality TV stars’ house burned down on Tuesday, according to TMZ.
Located in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood of Los Angeles, Pratt and Montag’s residence was at the epicenter of the blaze first reported on Tuesday at 10:30 a.m. PT.
Sources told TMZ that the house “burned to the ground” but that Pratt, 41, and Montag, 38, were able to evacuate with their entire family safely. An insider also told the outlet the couple are “devastated” by the loss.
Before being evacuated, Pratt posted a video on his Instagram Story showing fire planes dumping water onto a nearby hillside blaze.
The “Hills” alums aren’t the only celebrities affected by the fire, which has torn through the star-studded Pacific Palisades area. James Woods revealed in a post on X that he had evacuated his home in the upmarket community.
California Governor Gavin Newsom has declared a state of emergency as the fires have burned more than 2,900 acres, including several homes, and has zero containment as of Tuesday night, according to CalFire.
A red flag warning from the National Weather Service was issued on Monday and is in effect until Wednesday for much of Southern California.
Residents of Pacific Palisades have been told by local officials to “evacuate now.”
However, evacuees heeding the warning faced traffic jams on the roads out of the hillside community, leaving many to ditch their cars as they fled to safety.
The abandoned cars presented a problem for fire crews, who had to bulldoze them out of the way so fire trucks could drive up into the fire zone.
Actor and Pacific Palisades resident Steven Guttenberg made an impassioned plea on local news station KTLA around noon on Tuesday, begging people who dumped their vehicles on the road to leave their keys so he and others could move them.
“We really need people to move their cars,” he said on the live broadcast. “So if you leave your car behind, leave the key in there so a guy like me can move your car so that these fire trucks can get up there.”
“It’s really, really important,” he added.
Parts of Malibu were also under an evacuation order as of Tuesday evening.
The Post has reached out to Pratt and Montag’s rep for comment.
