Milo Ventimiglia is sharing his unfathomable loss.
The This Is Us star—whose wife, Jarah Mariano, is pregnant with the couple’s first baby—confirmed he was among those affected by the Los Angeles wildfires as he returned to his home to find it destroyed by the blaze.
“Oh man,” he told CBS News Jan. 9 while driving up to what remained of his Malibu property. “Toast.”
The 47-year-old described the sight of the destruction of the Palisades Fire as “heavy” while fighting back tears.
“You start thinking about all the memories and the different parts of the house and whatnot,” he continued, “and then you see your neighbors’ houses and everything around and your heart just breaks.”
Milo—who revealed that he and his wife had prepared a nursery for their unborn child before the fire—said he watched the flames overtake his home on security cameras before resigning to the reality of the situation.
