NCIS Star Eric Christian Olsen’s Family Faces Heartbreaking Loss as Wildfires Devastate Their $1.35M Home!

On Wednesday, it was announced by Eric Christian Olsen’s wife, Sarah Wright Olsen, that their Pacific Palisades residence, valued at $1.35 million with three bedrooms, had been destroyed by the wildfires in Los Angeles.

Fortunately, the former NCIS: Los Angeles actor, aged 47, and his partner, the 41-year-old co-founder of Your Zen Mama, successfully evacuated the troubled Castellammare district along with their three children – Wyatt, 11 years old; Esme, 8 years old; and Winter, 4 years old.

Sarah was right in the midst of recording episodes for her parenting podcast, The Mother Daze, when a pungent smell of smoke wafted through.

Instead of staying put, Eric hastily sought refuge at the residence of his brother David Paul Olsen and his sister-in-law Daniela Ruah, who appeared alongside him on NCIS: Los Angeles.

Wright expressed on Instagram that the recent days have been too profound to be fully captured in words. He conveyed that he, along with others, is united, secure, and enveloped by an abundance of affection.

‘Our home is no longer ours. It was among the initial affected areas. Our children recall their first steps within its confines. Bidling farewell to our charming town, our cherished school, and this place that held our hearts for 13 years is heart-wrenching. Yet, we are incredibly thankful for our unity and the overwhelming affection shown towards us.’

The founder of BĀEO skincare shared: ‘We’ve been overwhelmed by messages from friends offering their homes, meals, clothing, comforting hugs, items for the children, and support – all of which have left us in awe and brought tears to our eyes. We are deeply grateful, as this kindness truly touches our hearts. Stay tuned for more updates.’

Last month, the Olsens, along with thousands of other residents, faced the potential for evacuation because of the Franklin Fire that raged across over 4,000 acres and destroyed 12 buildings in the Malibu area from December 9 to December 18.

It’s uncertain whether the proprietor of Cloud Nine Productions and Sarah continue to possess the holiday house situated close to Jackson Hole, WY that they acquired during an episode of HGTV’s House Hunters in 2015.

As a devotee recounting their story, I found out that this long-lasting duo, who’ve been together for 12 years now, were reportedly drawn to each other in the year 2007. This was a year following our first encounter on the Fox sitcom set, The Loop, and a year subsequent to her divorce from her initial spouse, A.J. Mason.

At present, Eric serves as the executive producer for Jennie Snyder Urman’s remake of Matlock featuring Kathy Bates. On October 22nd, this production was formally renewed by CBS for a second season.

2023 marked the end of Eric Christian Olsen’s tenure as Detective Marty Deeks in Shane Brennan’s TV series, NCIS: Los Angeles, which airs on CBS, following a run of 14 seasons.

However, a supporter of Kamala Harris is commonly recognized for his roles in the films Troy Miller’s 2003 prequel Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd, where he portrayed Jim Carrey’s character, and Joel Gallen’s teen parody comedy Not Another Teen Movie, where he played the character Austin, the Self-Assured Blonde Guy.

On the ninth day, firefighters are continuing their struggle against five separate wildfires that have collectively scorched over 38,724 acres. The Palisades fire is currently 21% under control, while the Eaton (Altadena) fire has reached a containment level of 45%.

Authorities have verified that 25 people have lost their lives, more than 12,000 buildings have been demolished, thousands continue to be displaced, and the potential financial damage is projected to be between $135 billion and $150 billion.

Many other famous individuals, such as Sally Field, Mel Gibson, Paris Hilton, Jeff Bridges, Anna Faris, Cary Elwes, Diane Warren, Anthony Hopkins, John Goodman, Eugene Levy, Steve Guttenberg, Jennifer Grey, Ricki Lake, Matt Damon, Miles Teller, Billy Crystal, Adam Brody, and Heidi Montag, have also lost their homes due to the fire.
