Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Bozoma Saint John has revealed that she has lost her Los Angeles home in the sweeping wildfries which rocked the city.
“This is the house I wanted. The house I prayed for. The house I worked in blood, sweat and tears for. The house that I put a key pad instead of a key hole in the front door because I wanted all my family and friends to have a code and use the house whenever they wanted,” the reality star said on Instagram.
Bozoma says she found peace in the home after battling with racist neighbors and that she was forced to buy it in a trust so that nobody would know that she was a widow with a teenager to raise on her own.
“The house that I built a movie room dedicated to my sister so she could see her films in her own sanctuary. This is the house where I finally felt like I could choose to spend time… when I wanted to and how I wanted to. It is gone.”
Several celebrities, including Billy Crystal, Jeff Bridges, Paris Hilton, and R&B star Jhené Aiko, all lost their homes in the fires, and almost 200,000 people are on evacuation orders and cannot return to their homes.
