Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti Forced to Evacuate $13.5 Million Malibu Mansion as Los Angeles Wildfires Rage Out of Control
As wildfires continue to wreak havoc across California, Leonardo DiCaprio and his girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, were forced to evacuate their luxurious $13.5 million Malibu mansion late last night. The couple, who had been residing in the stunning beachfront property, fled as flames from the Pacific Palisades wildfire advanced dangerously close to the coastal enclave.
The fire, fueled by strong winds and dry conditions, has rapidly spread across the Los Angeles region, engulfing thousands of acres and threatening high-profile neighborhoods. Malibu, a haven for Hollywood’s elite, is now a battleground as emergency crews work tirelessly to contain the blaze.
Sources close to the couple reported that DiCaprio and Ceretti left the property in a hurry, taking only essential belongings as the evacuation orders were issued. Witnesses described the scene as “chaotic,” with neighbors scrambling to secure their homes and find safety.
“The fire spread so fast, no one could have anticipated it. One minute it seemed under control, and the next, it was roaring toward the houses,” said a local resident.
The $13.5 million estate, perched on a prime stretch of Malibu coastline, is one of DiCaprio’s many properties. Known for its breathtaking ocean views and eco-friendly design, the home is now under threat as firefighters battle to protect the area.
The Pacific Palisades wildfire is one of several currently ravaging California, where ongoing drought conditions have created a perfect storm for destructive blazes. The state is under a state of emergency as thousands of residents are evacuated, and authorities warn that the situation could worsen with the forecasted winds.
DiCaprio, known for his advocacy on climate change and environmental issues, has not yet released a public statement about the evacuation. However, many have pointed out the irony of the situation, as the very conditions he has long warned about are now threatening his own home.
The actor and his girlfriend, Vittoria Ceretti, are reportedly safe and staying at an undisclosed location while they monitor the situation. Meanwhile, the Pacific Palisades blaze shows no signs of slowing, leaving residents and emergency crews bracing for what could be days of destruction ahead.
As the flames continue to rage, the question remains: how much more will California lose before the fires are brought under control? For DiCaprio, Ceretti, and countless others, the devastation serves as a stark reminder of the power of nature and the urgency of addressing the climate crisis.
