Ben Affleck has escaped unharmed after his luxurious Pacific Palisades residence, valued at $20 million, was evacuated due to severe wildfires in California. The actor quickly went to collect their three children from his ex-wife Jennifer Garner’s house nearby and appeared to be in good spirits following the evacuation.
Reports confirmed that the family is safe, as stated by a trusted source to the Daily Mail.
Not long after their evacuation, Ben was spotted in Brentwood looking relaxed in a hoodie and his signature beard. He was seen smiling, checking on neighbors, hugging a friend, and then getting into his high-end SUV.
Wildfires devastate the area
As Ben approached his house, he was confronted by the sight of it consumed by flames. Even with the destruction surrounding him, he has maintained a positive presence, demonstrating his strength during this challenging situation.
Pacific Palisades is recognized for its expansive celebrity homes amidst hilly terrains filled with vegetation, which can intensify wildfire risks. This characteristic makes the area particularly susceptible to such devastating events.
Jennifer Garner, currently renting a $53,271-per-month place while her $8 million Brentwood farmhouse is being renovated, lives not far from Ben’s property. During this emergency, she has prioritized staying close to their children for their safety and well-being.
This neighborhood, also home to stars like Tom Hanks, Reese Witherspoon, Miles Teller, Adam Sandler, and Jhene Aiko, remains on high alert as the wildfire threat persists.
While the damages from the wildfires are considerable, the excellent news of Ben and his family’s safety brings some relief during these turbulent times. As the fire continues to burn, the community hopes for recovery and that the worst is over.
