The Emmy-winning daytime television host is deeply saddened by the destruction of her home amidst the catastrophic wildfires in California.

In her recent Instagram post, Sandra Lee expressed, “I appreciate all the kind messages you’ve sent me. Currently, I’m staying at a hotel as my home no longer exists. Sadly, my house has been completely destroyed. It’s truly devastating, and I’ve spent the entire night in tears.

Lee isn’t just grieving over the house; she’s also mourning the past five years of her life that she spent in California, which is now reduced to ashes. She expressed her feelings by saying, “I don’t know what to say, I don’t know how to separate this loss, I don’t know what my next step should be. All my possessions, all the last five years of my life… The only thing I can do now is go to work, and that’s exactly what I plan on doing today.

In the caption, Lee added, “I shed tears throughout the night, reflecting on every space, corner, and hidden spot. It was a masterpiece, now just Ash remains. Let us remember to pray for our community, firefighters, and first responders. This situation is far from resolved – it’s still very critical.

58-year-old chef shared details about the devastating fire affecting her Malibu home on another Instagram post, noting that it has been a significant part of some challenging times in her life. Although the sense of loss is immense, Lee expressed gratitude for all the first responders and firefighters working tirelessly to combat the blaze. She asked her followers to remember these heroes in their thoughts during this critical period.

She expressed her joy at realizing a lifelong aspiration in an interview with People. Lee excitedly said, “As a younger woman, I was a waitress at the Malibu Adobe. My sister Kimber and I used to dream about houses along Pacific Coast Highway. I vowed that if I ever succeeded, I would return and buy myself a house by the sea.
