The couple were forced to evacuate their $23 million, four bedroom home on Monday when the wildfires threatened their Carpinteria, California property.
DeGeneres spoke about the situation on Tuesday, telling reporters that she and De Rossi “just had to get out.”
“Our house… it’s there right now, but no one can get in to check on it. We basically just had to get out and leave the gates open for the fire trucks and we’re right in it… we’re right there,” she said.
“We’ll just lay low and just, you know, be grateful for having our pets with us and Portia’s horses are evacuated and we’re hoping to get them someplace soon and it’s, you know, it takes something like this to just remember, you know, just how fragile life is, and how you should never take anything for granted,” DeGeneres concluded.
