Cameron Mathison is one of the many A-listers to have their home destroyed by the raging Los Angeles wildfires.
The Canadian actor and television host joined the thousands of California locals who've been forced out of their homes since the 1,200 acre fire broke out earlier this week (7 January).
Though the cause of the fire has not yet been established by investigating officers, a spokesperson from the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection told press there is 'no possibility' of yet controlling the flames.

David Acuna told CNN: "[We are] mostly concerned with ensuring that all people get out of the area because life safety is the most important part, and we're helping plan to that their pets and livestock also have a safe shelter."
It is believed the fire started in the inland foothills of north-east LA, with the dry conditions and abnormally high temperatures of this region prompting rapid spreading.
As such, many homes - the majority of which are based in the Pacific Palisades area - have been destroyed, including those owned by huge-name stars.
According to the Mirror US, properties owned by the likes of Tom Hanks and wife Rita Wilson, Reese Witherspoon and her family, Miles Teller and wife Keleigh, and Adam Sandler, his wife and their two children, have been declared at risk.
The Hills stars Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt's were among those to have seen their family home destroyed in the disaster.
Sadly, Cameron Mathison has also lost his home to the fire, telling Entertainment Tonight that between 20 and 30 homes on his street alone have been engulfed by flames.
In his latest interview, the father-of-two - who shares 21-year-old son Lucas and daughter Leila, 18, with recently divorced ex-wife Vanessa - also recalled being forced to flee from the fire, admitting he wishes he'd grabbed more belongings.
"We grabbed passports and birth certificates," he explained. "I got all the photo albums that I could get out of there.
"I unfortunately left some really valuable ones where the kids were very, very young, and film that you can't replace."
"I grabbed my dog's ashes. I grabbed a stuffed animal of my daughter's," the actor said. "And that was it. That was it.
"If I really thought that the house was going down, I would have grabbed so much more."
Speaking about his children's struggle to process the fate of their family home, Mathison added: "They're both having a a really, really tough time.
"This is their house, everything we did in this house was for them.
"Leila said ironically four days ago that she wanted to raise her kids in that house."
The 55-year-old All My Children star also shared a video from his home on Wednesday morning (8 January), tearily telling his followers: "It was all gone, it was really, really decimated. It’s all just burnt to just ashes."
