Many A-list celebrities have lost their stunning multi-million dollar mansions in Los Angeles due to the Pacific Palisades and Hollywood Hills fires.
The homes of Anthony Hopkins, Anna Faris, Paris Hilton, Candy Spelling, Heidi Montag, John Goodman and Miles Teller are destroyed.
But several stars have been able to keep their properties safe out of sheer chance and the assistance of brave firefighters.
One of the luckiest Hollywood stars is Kate Hudson who has two homes in the Pacific Palisades neighborhood.
The two mega properties are side-by-side and are lavish with two stories, generous balconies, lush lawns and swimming pools.
Several celebrities, including Tom Hanks, Rebel Wilson, Tom Brady, Chris Pratt, Dan Aykroyd, Steven Spielberg, and Jennifer Love Hewitt, were fortunate enough to have their homes spared during the fires.
DailyMail.com has obtained photos of the homes that are still preserved.
KATE HUDSON
Kate Hudson’s two homes in Los Angeles are fine. They both miraculously survived the apocalyptic fires that have ravaged Los Angeles.
One of them is the childhood home she grew up in. She bought it back in 2003 for $5.5M.
Then in 2011 the Almost Famous actress snapped up the property next door for $5.3M.
Kate Hudson, along with her fiancé Danny Fujikawa and her three children – Ryder Robinson from her previous marriage to Chris Robinson, Bingham Hawn Bellamy from her ex Matt Ballamy, and daughter Rani Rose Hudson Fujikawa with Danny – were also able to keep their home safe.

Their all white Cape Cod style dwelling was still standing after the fires swept through their neighborhood in the Pacific Palisades.

In the backyard is a lush lawn next to a rectangular swimming pool with a built-in hot tub.
Even Jennifer Love Hewitt and her husband, Brian Hallisay, managed to escape the devastation, as their all-white Cape Cod style house remained untouched amidst the chaos of the fires in their neighborhood.
