George Clooney’s family has been forced to evacuate their home in southeastern France as a wildfire burned nearby, his agent said Thursday.
The Hollywood star made the statement in a letter to Mayor Didier Bremond of the town of Brignoles, which is a little more than 50 miles east of the city of Marseille.
Clooney wrote, “At this point we have no idea whether our beautiful home makes it through this terrible moment,” but the family wanted to “emphasize two things.”
“(F)irst we hope you and the people of our city are safe and second that Amal and I are committed to making sure that whatever happens to our village,” Clooney wrote, referring to his wife.
The recent European wildfires have raged across Spain and southern France, displacing some 300,000 people as of July 30, according to a report from the BBC.
