Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Lose $14M Montecito Mansion in Devastating LA Wildfires

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have spoken out for the first time following the destruction of their $14 million Montecito mansion, which was reduced to ashes by the raging LA wildfires that have devastated parts of Southern California. The couple, who had to evacuate their home in the early hours, described the experience as “harrowing” and shared their heartbreak over the loss of their dream home.
In a joint statement released on Thursday, Harry and Meghan expressed gratitude for their safety while mourning the loss of their home and community. “We are deeply saddened by the devastation caused by these fires. Our home, which held so many beautiful memories, is gone. But we are grateful to be safe, and our hearts go out to all those who have also suffered losses during this tragedy,” they wrote.

The Montecito mansion, which the couple purchased in 2020 after stepping back from royal duties, was known for its stunning architecture, sprawling gardens, and breathtaking views. It served as a haven for their young family, including their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. The property, now reduced to rubble, was reportedly engulfed by flames as high winds spread the fire at an alarming rate.
Neighbors and local residents have also suffered extensive damage, with several homes in the area completely destroyed. The Montecito community has faced wildfires and mudslides in recent years, but this latest disaster has left many reeling.

Prince Harry and Meghan were among the first to be evacuated, with reports suggesting they left with their children and essentials just minutes before the flames reached their property. “We barely had time to grab anything, but we are thankful to the first responders who risked their lives to help,” the couple shared.

The Sussexes have also called for immediate action to support those affected by the disaster. “This tragedy is a stark reminder of the urgent need to address climate change and invest in protecting our communities from its devastating impacts,” they said, encouraging donations to local relief organizations aiding displaced families.
