Paris Hilton is remembering what’s important in life after losing her Malibu home in the Los Angeles wildfires.
On Sunday, January 19, Hilton, aged 43, posted a video on Instagram featuring her 2-year-old son Phoenix snuggled up in a blanket with the family dogs, Diamond and Baby.
The video focused on Phoenix’s face as he rested with the dogs next to him. The caption, “Take a moment to relax with sleepy Pheeny, Diamond, and Baby,” was displayed over the clip.
Along with the video, Hilton shared a heartfelt message. She is a mother of two, including daughter London, who is 1 year old, with her husband, Carter Reum. Hilton expressed the importance of taking mindful moments and shared this adorable footage to remind her followers to do the same, coining the hashtag “#SlivingMom.”
The post comes after Hilton confirmed via the social media platform on January 9 that she had watched her “home in Malibu burn to the ground on live TV.” Detailing the experience at the time, she wrote, “This home was where we built so many precious memories. It’s where Phoenix took his first steps and where we dreamed of building a lifetime of memories with London.🥹.”
A heartbroken Hilton mustered a remarkable perspective even then, continuing with, “While the loss is overwhelming, I’m holding onto gratitude that my family and pets are safe. My heart and prayers are going out to every family affected by these fires. To all the people who have lost their homes, their memories, and their beloved pets. My heartaches for those still in harm’s way or mourning greater losses. The devastation is unimaginable.”
Hilton has maintained a positive outlook on the L.A. wildfires devastation, which affected a string of celebrities after breaking out due to a wind storm on January 7, lending a hand to displaced animals despite her personal heartbreak.
She shared via Instagram on Monday, January 13, that she intended to foster a dog who was surrendered by his family who had lost their home in the fire. “And we’re gonna go and see if there’s any other dogs where they are still looking for their owners,” Hilton posted at the time, adding a photo of herself doting on a cat in the hope of finding its owner amid the Altadena fires.
Hilton and a host of celebrities have shared vital disaster resource information in the aftermath of the natural disaster, with the socialite adding that her own charity organisation was offering assistance. The January 13 post continued, “My nonprofit @1111Media Impact has contributed to support the shelter’s efforts, and we’re still raising funds to help displaced families and pets 💰Every donation makes a difference in providing emergency relief, housing, and supplies. If you’re able to donate or volunteer, the Pasadena Humane Society is an incredible charity to support!”
