Chrissy Teigen and John Legend, along with their four children and pets, recently had to evacuate their home as wildfires wreak havoc across Los Angeles County. Teigen shared an emotional update on social media about the challenges they faced during this intense period. In a series of posts on her Instagram Story, she expressed her fear, telling her 41.9 million followers that she was feeling quite scared.
The model, dressed in all black with her face partially covered, documented her surreal experience of packing her belongings. Shortly after Teigen informed her followers that the family, consisting of Luna, 8, Miles, 6, and the one-year-old twins Esti and Wren, were “OK as of right now,” she candidly described the scene around her as a hellscape, sharing her gratitude for the outreach she received while also seeking ways to assist others in their community amid the crisis.
After leaving their Beverly Hills residence, they found refuge in a hotel, and Teigen humorously shared a moment featuring their four dogs and a bearded dragon named Sebastian. She ensured her followers that they had not forgotten their beloved pet while capturing the lighter moments during such a stressful time.
As wildfires continued to rampage through the region, displacing over 100,000 residents and resulting in multiple fatalities, other celebrities also faced devastating losses. The situation prompted California Governor Gavin Newsom to declare a state of emergency for the area. Many stars, including Leighton Meester and Adam Brody, have reported damage to their homes, with emotional updates surfacing online from those affected.
Teigen’s social media updates reflect a family grappling with chaos while also attempting to inject levity into a dire situation. Through it all, she and John Legend demonstrated resilience as they navigated through yet another difficult chapter brought on by the relentless wildfires plaguing Los Angeles.
