She said that “it’s not livable but mostly intact.” She also noted that Goldsmith’s brother, Griffin Goldsmith, and his wife, Kit Goldsmith, lost their home because of the fire.

“Our dear friends @matthewkoma and @hilaryduff thought it wise to set up a gofundme for us to help with everything moving forward,” wrote Goldsmith in his social media post.
In addition, he expressed gratitude for Duff and Koma.
“I will never be able to thank them adequately. This is the kindest act any human could do for another. They are the most beautiful, selfless people we’ve ever known,” continued Goldsmith.
Page Six reported that Moore received backlash for sharing the GoFundMe fundraiser on her Instagram Stories. Moore shared she was frustrated by the criticism in a separate Instagram Story.
“We just lost most of our life in a fire too. Kindly F OFF. no one is forcing you to do anything,” wrote Moore, as reported by Page Six.
Moore’s former friend, Spencer Pratt, who lost his home in the Pacific Palisades fire, defended her in a January 12 TikTok upload. He described Moore as a kind and lovely person. Pratt also warned his social media followers to stop criticizing Moore.
“A lot of people I follow, you are popping up on my page. I want to block you, and stitch you, and come for you. But maybe delete your content about Mandy Moore because Mandy Moore is a real one,” said Pratt during his TikTok video.
