Kim Kardashian And Her Family Flee Their Hidden Hills Homes As Fire Breaks Out Near Neighborhood

Reality TV star Kim Kardashian and her famous family have reportedly fled their homes in the Hidden Hills after a wildfire broke out nearby.

The Kardashian family's matriarch, Kris, and her children, Kourtney, Kim, Khloé, Kendall, Kylie, and Rob, all left their homes due to a mandatory evacuation order issued after the Kenneth Fire.

This revelation comes after Kim Kardashian was criticized for not speaking out about the wildfires but instead promoting her brand, SKIMS.

TMZ reports that the Kardashian clan left their Hidden Hills homes on Thursday night after being issued an evacuation notice due to the Kenneth Fire, rapidly spreading across 1,000 acres of land.

Although the notice has since been lifted, it is unclear whether the reality TV family has returned to their homes.

However, while evacuating, they reportedly ensured they supported the firefighting efforts around them by sending out food and other items.

A source told the news outlet that Carousel Restaurant, an eatery specializing in Lebanese-Armenian cuisine, thanked the Kardashians for paying for meals sent to several fire stations.

The family specifically treated first responders with a meal comprising meat, rice, hummus, and pita.

According to reports, the Kardashians and their businesses are also donating to organizations that are helping support Los Angeles's recovery from the devastating wildfires.

Kim Kardashian Came Under Fire For Her SKIMS Sale Amid The Wildfires

Prior to the news of the Kardashian family's evacuation, SKIMS founder Kim had come under scrutiny for posting about a sale of her underwear brand while the wildfires tore through Los Angeles.

LA writer Meredith Lynch called out the billionaire on social media, accusing her of prioritizing her brand over the wildfire crisis that has displaced thousands of people.

In an Instagram video, Lynch expressed frustration, saying, "LA is literally burning down, and Kimberly Noel is literally posting, telling us to buy SKIMS."

Lynch shared a screenshot of the countdown post and criticized the lack of any message addressing the fires.

"Not one thoughts or prayers on her Instagram, but she is posting you a countdown to her winter sale," Lynch noted. "Kim Kardashian, who has these huge reaches, who has such a base in Los Angeles, it is wild to me that they're not like, 'hey, let me use my platform to put out as much resources as possible.'"

The writer continued, "No, instead, she's like 'buy SKIMS.'"

Kim Kardashian Was Called 'Soulless' For Not Speaking Out

In Lynch's video rant, she pointed out the timing of Kim's SKIMS post, branding it insensitive and implying that her teams should take it down.

"She has a whole f-cking social media team that should be intervening right now," Lynch said, suggesting the team should prioritize sharing resources for those affected by the fires.

"It is wild to me, we are living the end of days right now, that is what's happening. Because of these billionaires, they're so unaffected that they don't care," she added.

Kim was also criticized by her fans, many of whom commented that they were too busy with the LA fires to purchase SKIMS products.

One person wrote, "Wow, I wish I could think about buying new skims, but I've been evacuated from fires." Another said, "They are soulless."

Khloé Kardashian Called For Donations

Unlike Kim, her sister Khloé has since spoken out about the wildfires with her 304 million Instagram followers.

The Good American founder shared that a neighbor in direct contact with fire department officials described the firefighters as "desperate, hungry, and exhausted."

According to the Daily Mail, the TV personality offered practical ways to help. She encouraged her audience to support their local fire stations by dropping off supplies like protein-packed meals, Gatorade, and coffee.

Khloé also shared details for those wanting to contribute financially, writing, "If you're interested in donating to my neighbor, who is going to Costco tomorrow to pick up rotisserie chickens and sides to deliver to several stations, you can Venmo: @sean-whitley."

Several Stars Have Lost Their Homes In The LA Wildfires

While Kim and her family's homes seem to have survived the blaze, several other Hollywood stars have been greatly impacted, losing million-dollar homes in the fire.

Academy Award winner Anthony Hopkins lost his four-bedroom, five-bathroom home, which he purchased for $6 million in 2021.

Actors Adam Brody and Leighton Meester were also not so lucky, as they lost their $7 million mansion where they lived with their two young daughters.

Similarly, the blaze destroyed actress Anna Faris's $5 million eco-friendly home and the homes of reality stars Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag.

The wildfires are said to have been prompted by a combination of drought-like conditions and powerful offshore winds that have hit the Los Angeles area since Tuesday.

The Pacific Palisades fire appears to be the most destructive, having consumed over 17,234 acres since its beginning. It is now also being regarded as the most destructive fire in Los Angeles history.
