George Clooney and his wife Amal Clooney left their country estate near the town of Brignoles in southeastern France with their family after forest fires approached the area. According to available information, the flames have not yet directly hit their house, but the family evacuated for safety reasons. Spiegel.de ↗
The couple have lived in Brignoles for almost five years, and their nine-year-old twins, Alexander and Ella, were also staying at the house. The fires struck the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region and also raised concerns among residents of municipalities in the Var department. The Clooneys informed the mayor of Brignoles of their departure in a letter, in which they expressed their support for the town and promised to help with recovery once the crisis is over.
According to reports from several media outlets, the family left without any certainty as to whether their house could be protected from the flames. The situation in France is part of a broader wave of fires in southern Europe, where firefighters are responding in multiple regions. In some areas the situation has improved, while in others response efforts continue. SITA ↗
Further developments will depend on the weather, wind, and firefighters' ability to keep the fires away from inhabited areas. The Clooneys have indicated that they want to remain connected to Brignoles and take part in helping the community once the most acute phase of the fires has been brought under control.
