Cara Delevingne’s multi-million dollar Los Angeles home was destroyed after it caught fire Friday (15 March) morning.
The fire is reported to have erupted around 4am. It took nearly 100 firefighters from the Los Angeles Fire Department to put out the blaze.
“There was a very long driveway, where they found a large two-story, single-family home that had fire and smoke showing from the rear,” LAFD’s Capt Adam VanGerpen said in a statement. “This got up into the attic and spread throughout the majority of the home. So the home has a lot of excessive damage.”
Hours later, Delevinge – who was in London the day before, where she’s been starring as Sally Bowles in the Playhouse Theatre’s production of Cabaret – posted about the incident on her Instagram Story.
“My heart is broken today… I cannot believe it. Life can change in a blink of an eye. So cherish what you have,” the 31-year-old Paper Towns actor wrote, alongside a picture of her two cats.
In a follow-up post, she shared a video of several fire trucks outside of her home.
“Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all the firefighters and people that have showed up to help,” she captioned another post.
