Cara Delevingne's $7M LA Mansion Ravaged by Fire; Desperate Search for Beloved Cats Ensues
In 2019, Cara Delevingne paid $7 million for an 8,000-square-foot mega mansion with a 1970s flair. According to Architectural Digest, Nicolò Bini of Line Architecture created the supermodel's home based on several moods and themes. “My work requires me to put on many different hats and costumes. I love slipping into these various characters, so I wanted my home to reflect lots of different themes and moods,” Delevingne said then. However, a devastating fire destroyed the posh LA residence, her two cherished kitties were saved after an army of forty firefighters fought for two hours to put out the fire at her luxurious mansion in Studio City, California.
As per The US Sun, Delevingne was in London when the freak incident occurred. For the first time since the fire destroyed her home, she came out of hiding. After appearing in her West End production of Cabaret, the actress from Only Murders in the Building was spotted exiting London's Kit Kat Club venue. She talked about the fire that destroyed her £5.5 million ($7 million) home early on Friday on Instagram.
She composed: "My heart is broken today. I cannot believe it. Life can change in a blink of an eye. So cherish what you have. "Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all the firefighters and people who have shown up to help." Before sharing a cute photo of the two with her followers, she had no idea what had happened to her two darling kittens: "They are alive!! Thank You To The Firefighters."

Although the cause of the fire is still unknown, it is believed to have started in the property's backroom and quickly spread to the attic, resulting in the collapse of a portion of the roof. At 3:57 a.m. local time, a call for assistance was placed. The fire was reportedly brought under control in two hours by a sizable squad of firemen riding about in thirteen fire trucks. A post to the LAFD website said: "Firefighters arrived to find a four-story building with fire showing from the second floor. It took 40 firefighters 21 minutes to extinguish the fire. After firefighters entered the structure to eliminate the remainder of the flames, crews ventilated the building to remove any lingering smoke and searched for any victims. No reported injuries to civilians or firefighters. The cause of the fire is under investigation."
