Bella Hadid shared a heartbreaking photo of her childhood home burning down amid the ongoing fires tearing through Los Angeles.
The Vogue cover girl, 28, took to her Instagram Stories with a photo of her mom Yolanda Hadid’s, 60, iconic former Malibu mansion engulfed in flames.
The luxurious property — where Yolanda once lived and raised her kids including Bella and her sister Gigi — would frequently make appearances on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
‘Childhood bedroom,’ Bella wrote on the snap with a sad face emoji.
She also shared another decimated photo of the home in the daytime. Once a backdrop to the reality TV series and drama-filled dinner parties in the earliest seasons, now just the wooden frames of the home remain.
The Malibu mansion, known as the Carbon Canyon Estate, was also once rented by Kylie Jenner for nearly half a million dollars a month, but now no longer exists after heroic firefighters put out the blaze.

Only the ruins of the sprawling manse can be seen after the devastating wildfires ravaged the Pacific Palisades, and all throughout Los Angeles, burning down many other homes of the rich and famous in the process.
The last owner had just put the Los Angeles mansion up for sale in July 2024 for $35 million.
Now, the once abundant green hedges and foliage all burned down just like nearby homes in the area.
The massive six-bedroom, 11-bathroom mansion was known for being the home of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Yolanda.
Hadid previously purchased the home for $4.5 million in 2007 and renovated the mansion for two years to suit her and her now-ex, composter David Foster.
During the time Hadid owned and lived there, the house had seen iconic scenes starring the old, beloved cast: Taylor Armstrong, Kim Richards, Lisa Vanderpump, Adrienne Maloof, Brandi Glanville and Kyle Richards.
The home was featured on multiple seasons of RHOBH and was known for being the location of the infamous Don’t Sing For Your Supper episode in season three.
Hadid and Foster were married for four years before she announced their divorce filing in 2015 and finalized their legal separation in 2017.

She sold her Malibu, Mediterranean-inspired mansion, the childhood home of her kids Gigi, Bella and Anwar Hadid, in 2015 after eight years of living there.
The once colorful and lively home surrounded by an abundance of greenery now appears sepia-toned with rubble and ruins and a few surviving palm trees left behind.
Both Bella and Yolanda have since relocated to Fort Worth, Texas. Bella bought a property in The Lone Star State to be closer to her boyfriend, Adan Banuelos, who also owns a home in the area.
Meanwhile Yolanda and her fiancé, Joseph Jingoli, built a cowboy-inspired home in the Fort Worth area.
The Pacific Palisades fire broke out on Tuesday morning amid high winds in a region that hasn’t seen significant rainfall in more than six months.
Apocalyptic fires tore through the ritzy enclave of Pacific Palisades on Tuesday, rapidly spreading to surrounding suburbs as a windstorm carried embers and debris in all directions.
Residents fled and then waited with bated breath to learn more about their homes, as news began trickling out that entire streets had been wiped off the map, firefighters were running out of water, and resources were being diverted to fight the fire on multiple fronts.
Over 30,000 residents in Pacific Palisades and surrounding areas are under mandatory evacuation orders amid warnings there is an immediate threat to their lives.
At least six separate blazes are burning in the metropolitan area from the Pacific Coast inland to Pasadena.

California Governor Gavin Newsom declared a state of emergency amid warnings the situation could worsen.
The National Guard were called in to help exhausted firefighters battling six separate fires as the apocalyptic skies of Los Angeles continue to fill with smoke.
Two new blazes broke out on Wednesday night in the Hollywood Hills and Studio City, forcing first responders to redeploy their already scarce resources.
The latest fires mean huge swathes of iconic southern California real estate from Malibu to Santa Monica, Pacific Palisades and Runyon Canyon are ablaze, impacting millions of locals and holidaymakers who were caught off guard by the unprecedented spread and carnage.
At least five people have lost their lives in the devastating natural disaster so far – with 2,000 structures completely obliterated and thousands of people left with nothing but ash across the City of Angels.
