Taking to her Instagram Stories, Alanna shared a note informing her followers about how she had to leave her ski trip in between to return home after finding out about the fires. She wrote, "We left our ski trip early after finding out about the fires. We drove into LA through clouds of smoke rushing home to pack our lives into a few suitcases or whatever fit into the back of our car. The thought about evacuating with our entire life back in this house and potentially coming back to a pile of dust was gut wrenching.”

"I couldn't even imagine what people who have already lost their homes are feeling right now. We're currently really close to 2 fires but don't have a level 3 evacuation warning yet. As of now we're safe and thank you to everyone that's reached out," she concluded.
