The actress said the tragedy happened 'a couple of months ago.'

Northern California has so far borne the brunt of the 2021 fire season. One of the largest fires in the state’s history, the Dixie fire, has charred more than 860,000 acres. Meanwhile, the Caldor fire has given the Lake Tahoe area a serious scare. She also wanted to say goodbye to her pets "that loved us so well", she said.

Between Redding, in the state’s interior, and Eureka, on the coast, is the Monument fire, which has charred more than 177,000 acres in 35 days. It began northeast of Chico, was 55% contained by Friday and had been burning for 55 days. Keep up to date on all the fires in the state with the Los Angeles Times’ California wildfires map — which shows fire origins, perimeters, hot spots, evacuation zones and the spread of air pollution. The Times also has reporters covering fires throughout the state. Californians should prepare their homes and families for wildfire and know what to do if ordered to evacuate.

Scorsone, 41, shares three young daughters — ages 3 to 10 — with her ex-husband, Grammy-winning musician Rob Giles, 49, whom she divorced in 2020. She did not share the exact date of the fire, the location of the home or details about the cause of the fire. Her representatives did not immediately respond Tuesday to The Times’ requests for further comment.

While she and the kids made it out, Scorsone wrote, "Heartbreakingly, we lost all four of our pets. We are still sitting with that loss, but we are lucky we got to love them at all." "We are still sitting with that loss, but we are lucky we got to love them at all," she wrote about their beloved pets. Sadly, Scorsone said, their four pets were killed in the house fire and her post included photos of them. Scorsone posted a photo of the devastation Monday on her Instagram account, writing, "A couple of months ago my house burned down."

The "Grey's Anatomy" star, who portrays Dr. Amelia Shepherd on the ABC drama series, shared photos on Instagram Monday of a soot-filled room with scorched wooden beams, which once made up her family's home. She also shared photos of their dog and cats, who did not survive the fire. Scorsone has starred on ABC‘s blockbuster drama series Grey’s Anatomy as Amelia Shepherd, the sister-in-law to Ellen Pompeo‘s Meredith Grey, since the ABC hit medical drama’s seventh season in 2010. On the currently airing 19th season, Meredith’s home nearly burnt down in the winter finale, which aired in late 2022. Lightning struck the house with Meredith’s children inside; everyone escaped as their belongings went up in flames.

"While getting my kids ready for bed and finishing bath time, smoke began to seep up through the grout around the tub," Scorsone wrote on Instagram, alongside a photo of the fire damage in her home. "Thank you to the firefighters and the investigators ... Thank you to my neighbor who answered our frantic knocks at her door. Thank you to the parents at my kids’ school who sent toys and books." "While getting my kids ready for bed and finishing bath time, smoke began to seep up through the grout around the tub. When I looked down the hallway a river of thick black smoke had already formed and was filling the house," Scorsone wrote.

"What we learned is that the only thing that matters are the people (and beings) that you love. The only thing that matters is community," Scorsone said. However, the Pasadena Fire Department confirmed Tuesday that on the evening of Jan. 22, six fire engines responded to a two-alarm fire at a one-story, west Pasadena home connected to Scorsone. Three residents were displaced and housed at a private residence, and one dog and two cats died at the scene, according to an incident report obtained by The Times. “Grey’s Anatomy” star Caterina Scorsone says she lost four pets in a recent fast-moving house fire that she had to flee with her three children. Crews are making progress against the Caldor fire, which was threatening South Lake Tahoe and nearby communities and is now affecting the quality of Lake Tahoe’s famously blue water. The fire began nearly three weeks ago and has burned about 213,000 acres.
