This Is Us star Milo Ventimiglia faced his own heartbreaking loss as his Malibu home was destroyed in the devastating Los Angeles fires.
The 47-year-old star paid a visit to his neighbourhood along with a CBS Evening News reporter for the first time to see what was left after the fires destroyed his and his neighbours' homes.
Notably, on Tuesday, January 7, he left his residence with his pregnant wife, Jarah Mariano, who is due any day now, and their dog.
When the reporter asked what it was like to stand in his burnt home, Milo expressed his feeling by saying, "Heavy."
The Land of Bad actor continued, “You start thinking about the memories and then you see your neighbours’ houses and everything around—your heart just breaks.”
“It’s not lost on me, life imitating art. We’ll make due,” he said.
For the unversed, Milo Ventimiglia played Jack Pearson in This Is Us, where his character’s home burns down in a fire.
It is pertinent to mention that other luminaries who lost their homes in the Los Angeles wildfire are Anna Faris, Heidi Montag, Leighton Meester, Jeff Bridges, Paris Hilton, and Anthony Hopkins, per TMZ.
