Los Angeles wildfires have claimed yet another casualty: the palatial (probably overly crystal-adorned) home of reality TV’s infamous duo, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt. Yes, the universe just served up a fiery plot twist that not even The Hills writers could dream up.
Stephanie Pratt, aka Spencer’s sister and self-proclaimed crisis commentator, broke the news via Instagram. Because when your brother’s house burns down, the first thing you do is turn to Stories, obviously. “I don’t know if it’s good that I’m in London or if I need to fly back to LA,” she posted, frozen in shock. Steph, honey, first step: maybe get a plane ticket? Second step: chill with the Instagram updates.
The Great Evacuation
TMZ, always on the frontlines of celebrity chaos, reported that the Pratt family—including sons Gunner (age 6 and likely confused) and Ryker (13 months and blissfully unaware)—escaped unscathed. Cue the cinematic image of Spencer loading crystals into a suitcase while Heidi grabs, I don’t know, matching tracksuits for the kids?
Spencer even hopped on his own Instagram to share a video of a heroic plane dumping water over smoke-filled mountains. A real-life action sequence starring everyone but Spencer Pratt.
Stephanie Pratt: Disaster Narrator Extraordinaire
Stephanie’s Instagram updates are the comedic relief none of us asked for but deeply needed. “How horrible for my sweet little nephews to watch their house disappear like this,” she wrote, undoubtedly from a cozy London flat. As for her own potential losses? She kindly reminded us, “If my house goes, it’s only my stuff, not years of family memories.” Translation: Thank goodness no one’s burning down my designer handbag collection.
She continued with more heartfelt commentary: “Even the fire station in the Palisades has burned down.” Yikes. A community tragedy? Yes. A moment to call your dad? Sure. But Steph chose instead to let us know her parents are monitoring the raging inferno via security cameras like it’s some apocalyptic Netflix binge.
Spencer Pratt: The Instagram Hero
Meanwhile, Spencer, ever the multitasker, used the evacuation as an opportunity for content. “This fire is no joke,” he posted, presumably while considering the resale value of his hummingbird crystals. And let’s not forget the unseen footage of Heidi probably carrying three dogs, two kids, and a jar of collagen supplements to safety.
A Community Burns, But the Drama Stays Hot
Stephanie ended her updates with a dramatic flourish: “I’m thinking about flying home so I can hug my family.” Thinking, not doing, of course. Because why hug your family when you can craft an emotional Instagram narrative for likes?
While the loss of their home is genuinely tragic, you’ve got to hand it to the Pratt-Montag-Pratt clan: even in disaster, they bring the drama. Here’s hoping the family finds a safe (and less flammable) place to rebuild—and that Stephanie keeps us posted on her journey, one chaotic Story at a time.
