Mexican actress Kate del Castillo recently opened up to her followers on social media about a troubling experience. The La Reina del Sur star shared that she had to evacuate her Los Angeles home due to the devastating wildfires sweeping through the area. "Fortunately, the property did not suffer significant damage." Kate shared that her home did not sustain major harm.
In a heartfelt video on Instagram, Kate expressed her distress about the situation, visibly shaken by the chaos around her. "This is terrible," she said, while thanking her friends who helped during this crisis by rescuing important documents and her vehicles, which meant she wouldn’t lose anything irreplaceable in the midst of the emergency.
She also explained that, although she wanted to go to her home in person, the authorities wouldn't allow her to enter because the area is already secured.
In the video, the actress comments, "I just got off work and found out that I need to evacuate my house in Los Angeles. Well, I actually already did. I have friends there who are helping me gather some things, rescue my cars, and take them to a safe place, as well as getting my stuff out of the safe," she explained.
Her situation is just one among many, as several celebrities have also been impacted by the ongoing fires in California, which officials have described as "apocalyptic." These wildfires have wreaked havoc, forcing thousands, including prominent public figures like Kate, to flee their homes.
In the midst of chaos, Kate remains focused on the bigger picture, actively lending her support to those impacted by the disaster. Her involvement underscores the extensive devastation brought on by the wildfires and serves as a powerful reminder that no one, not even public figures, is immune to nature's wrath.
A few weeks ago, Kate del Castillo hosted Christmas for her Mexican family. Her sister Verónica shared videos during the gift exchange, where Don Eric del Castillo and his wife Kate Trillo were also present.
