Lost Star Evangeline Lilly’s House Burns Down
December 21st, 2006
‘Lost’ star Evangeline Lilly lost her home to a fire yesterday morning
(12.20.06).
The actress’ rented Hawaii residence, which she shares with two female
members of the ‘Lost’ crew, was destroyed by a blaze which broke out at
6.30am.
Lilly’s publicist Cara Tripicchio said: “Unfortunately, it is true that the
home she rented in Hawaii did burn down this morning.
“Evangeline was on set already when the fire occurred and luckily, her
roommates were not in the house either. Thankfully, everyone is safe.”
Honolulu Fire Captain Kenison Tejada received the alarm call at 6.43am.
He said: “When we arrived the house was fully engulfed. It was a complete
loss. We stopped the fire from spreading. It took us maybe 15 to 20 minutes
to knock down the main body of fire.
“The only thing standing was the roof and a couple of the interior walls.
Most of the contents had been destroyed. The home was pretty much destroyed
and uninhabitable.”
Fire investigators arrived on the scene after the fire had been controlled
but the cause has not yet been determined.
Morgan Janus, a neighbor who lives opposite, told the Honolulu Advertiser
newspaper: “I woke up to my dogs barking. There were loud popping sounds,
like something electrical.”
Lilly, 27, who plays Kate in the cult TV drama, is dating co-star Dominic
Monaghan.
The British actor, who starred in the ‘Lord of the Rings’ trilogy, visited
the house yesterday to inspect the damage but refused to comment.
Filming for ‘Lost’ is scheduled to break for Christmas at the end of the
week.
