'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' star has joined a heartbreaking list of celebrities who have lost their homes to the devastating wildfires ravaging Southern California.

AceShowbiz - Bozoma Saint John, the vivacious newcomer of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," has recently faced a heartrending tragedy. The California wildfires have ravaged her Malibu dream home, which she shared with her 15-year-old daughter, Lael.

These fires, fueled by the region's worst windstorms in over a decade, have not only destroyed thousands of structures but have also claimed lives, leaving the beloved city of Los Angeles in ruins.

In an emotional Instagram post accompanied photos of the idyllic beachfront property, now nothing but memories, Saint John wrote, "This is the house I wanted. The house I prayed for. The house I worked in blood, sweat and tears for. The house that I put a keypad instead of a keyhole in the front door because I wanted all my family and friends to have a code and use the house whenever they wanted."

The serene residence had been a sanctuary for Saint John after years of battling racism and community prejudices. She added, "This is the house where I found peace after battling with racist neighbors and a community that made me have to buy it in a trust within a trust so no one would know that a widowed, single Black woman with a teenager was buying on the exclusively-held beach."

In her post, she revealed how she built a personalized movie room dedicated to her sister, Alua Arthur, emphasizing its deep emotional significance.

With an unmistakable tone of despair, Saint John confirmed the total destruction of her home, "It is gone. This is an unimaginable loss. I grieve with the rest of Los Angeles as it burns… and even though I've found even words to write here, there's nothing that I could say in this moment to describe this feeling."

She concluded her heart-rending message by requesting prayers for herself and Lael during this challenging time.

Saint John's loss is part of a larger calamity affecting numerous high-profile residents. The Pacific Palisades fire has also consumed homes belonging to Paris Hilton, Anna Faris, and John Goodman, among others. The magnitude of this disaster has left over 130,000 people under evacuation orders, with authorities preparing K-9 units to search for human remains amidst the wreckage.

As Southern California contemplates the aftermath of these raging fires, the community's resilience and unwavering support continue to shine through. Saint John's public grieving has drawn comforting words from famous friends and followers, reaffirming the strength found in unity during such devastating times.
