Some were eventually able to return home, but many others were not. Below, we've compiled a list of the celebrities who have lost homes to fire or otherwise been affected.

The actress, pictured here with her father Eugene and her son James, also lost her Pacific Palisades home. "Oh, my sweet home," she wrote on Instagram. "My heart so deeply aches. What I would give to hear the key slide in the front door one more time or the baby gate click behind me as I bring the laundry upstairs. To hear the garbage truck outside every Tuesday and watch James run to the window to watch. To smell the eucalyptus and the roses and the rosemary. To see the fog roll in in the early morning or the hawks soaring above the yard or the twinkling of lights from the houses across the canyon at night. To run into friends daily because it was that small a town. To search for baby strawberries next door. How blessed we were to raise our son in such an idyllic, magical place away from the hustle and bustle of LA. Our whole future ahead, planned in our little kitchen. Luckily we are all safe and if this has taught me nothing else, it’s to appreciate every last detail of your life. I know we’ll be back and the Palisades will be more vibrant and lush and full of life than ever. We’ll wait until then. ❤️"
