Jennie Garth broke down in tears after evacuating her home and crashing with her ex-husband Peter Facinelli as the Los Angeles wildfires consumed the area north of Pasadena, Calif.
“peter and his family took us in and have been so kind,” the “Beverly Hills, 90210” alum posted on Instagram as she shared an emotional video letting fans know she and her family, plus their home, are safe.
She and the “Twilight” star were married for 11 years before their 2012 divorce. They share three daughters: Luca, 27, Lola, 22, and Fiona, 18.
Facinelli is engaged to Lily Anne Harrison, with whom he welcomed a child in 2022.
“i am deeply saddened for our city. and just feel numb,” Garth added. “our home was spared but so much to clean up and ready to get active to help our neighbors and friends and fellow Angelinos [sic].”
Garth, 52, also shouted out her husband, Dave Abrams, for helping transport all their belongings as they prepared for the possibility of losing their home.
She and Abrams tied the knot in 2015 and have no kids together after suffering two miscarriages.
“this will effect people differently, so reach out, and offer to help, it really does mean so much,” the “What I Like About You” star continued. “thank you for all the love that is being sent this way🩵.”
In her video, Garth thanked firefighters, volunteers and all who have been helping protect the community during the “unimaginable” tragedy.
The actress bought her $3.3 million home in 2019 after selling her Los Olivos, Calif., residence.
The 3,360-square-foot abode reportedly has four bedrooms and four bathrooms and sits on slightly more than an acre of land.
The home, a 1950s mid-century ranch, boasts a pool and reportedly has a spa-like bathroom attached to the master suite.
The Eaton Fire in the San Gabriel Valley — just north of Pasadena — erupted on Tuesday and has burned approximately 14,000 acres. Five deaths have been reported.
While Garth’s residence is safe, the same can’t be said for many of her peers.
Paris Hilton, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, Tina Knowles, Leighton Meester and Adam Brody and many more lost homes in the fires across Los Angeles.
