"I could not believe my eyes to be one of 10 in my neighbor of homes still there. I do not know how."
She went on to say firefighters must have saved her home and she praised their efforts, adding she feels a little ''guilty'' that her home survived.

"There are no words to express my emotion as these fires still burn out of control."

She then asked fans and followers to "say a prayer for LA," and added: "For me, I will thank God every day."
Last week, as the fires raged, she shared a video of herself holding back tears as she said she lost her house in the fires.
"I am truly grateful we are all safe. My house is gone-I cried all night and thought about every room, nook, and cranny. It was perfection and now it's just ash," she wrote in her post.
There are a number of stars who have devastatingly lost their homes in the wild fires, including Paris Hilton, Anna Faris, Mel Gibson, and Billy Crystal.
Actor James Woods thought he lost his home as well, but soon shared on X that his home was still standing.
He described it as a "miracle" and said: "We managed to get to our property and our home, that we were told is gone forever, is still standing."
