Spencer Pratt reveals what survived LA fire as he returns to Pacific Palisades home he shared with Heidi Montag


Spencer Pratt visited the site where the Pacific Palisades, California home burned down on Thursday.

It is amid ongoing wildfires in California that have scorched more than 10,300 homes and businesses, leaving seven people dead.

Pratt, 41, was seen rifling through the debris at the home he shared with Montag, 38, for crystals or other personal artifacts that might have potentially survived the blaze.

The Hills alum was clad in a black T-shirt and khaki shorts as he surveyed the damage of his home, which had a few walls standing in the aftermath.

He was happy to pick out a cooking pot that survived the fire and said he was going to polish it back to its former glory. A metal box was badly burned but still intact as debris was draped over it.

The reality TV star also took photos of a burnt tricycle belonging to one of his two children.

Pratt’s visit Thursday came as officials said that in excess of 5,300 structures were damaged or decimates as result of the Palisades Fire, in addition to 5,000-plus structures destroyed in the Eaton Fire (close to Pasadena), according to the AP.

Authorities said the Palisades Fire was at six percent contained as of Thursday night.

The couple’s home was flattened to the ground after the raging fire took over the LA landscape and wreaked fiery havoc on Tuesday evening, and photos obtained by DailyMail.com on Wednesday showed the severity of the devastation.

The only parts of the home still standing were the charred entry gate and the front portion of the home’s stucco perimeter wall. Large piles of debris were seen throughout the property as well as burnt foliage that once decorated the home’s front yard.

‘While we ended up losing our house in the fire and thank God we are safe, so thank you to everyone who’s checking, thank you for all your prayers, thank you for your thoughts. It’s,’ she said, emotion growing on her face. ‘No words.’ 

Pratt attempted to cheer himself up on Wednesday with some bagels. 

The reality alum, who was seen Tuesday watching the flames move towards his home, admitted he was in a state of shock and conceded his video was quite ‘unhinged.’  

‘When your house burns down and you have nothing and your parents house burns down and they have nothing. There’s only one thing that can maybe make you feel better – a bag of bagels!’ he said gleefully. 

‘Obviously I’m in shock and my brain’s not functioning, so think is the most unhinged post you’ve seen.’

Sources told TMZ that Pratt and Montag’s home was completely destroyed after catching fire on Tuesday.

Luckily, the couple and their two sons were able to safely evacuate earlier in the day before the flames got too close.

However, they are said to be distraught by the staggering loss.

More than 30,000 residents evacuated their homes as a massive wildfire ripped through the celeb enclave of Pacific Palisades, burning nearly 3,000 acres and reducing dozens of homes to rubble.
