Paris Hilton has launched an emergency fund to support families displaced by the Los Angeles wildfires, kickstarting with a personal donation of 100,000 dollars (£82,000).

"My heart and prayers are going out to every family affected by these fires. To all the people who have lost their homes, their memories, and their beloved pets," she wrote in a lengthy social media post.

The "Simple Life" alum and her husband Carter Reum purchased the waterfront getaway for $8.4 million in 2021 while they were still engaged.
