Chrishell took to Instagram on Thursday to share a clip promoting her latest series The Traitors, which was airing in the US that night.

'Hello from California,' Chrishell began the clip. 'It was an extremely long two nights. I've had no sleep, we did evacuate last night but thank God they put the fire out quickly.

'If it happened the night before when the winds were happening and they weren't allowed to fly it would've been a complete different story.'. Chrishell added that, despite being evacuated to safety she was still in a 'red zone' meaning she was not completely out of danger.
'I'm so thankful,' she said. 'We're still in the red zone, that means we still have to leave at any moments notice.'. She also took a moment to acknowledge the awkward timing of promoting a television series in the middle of a major catastrophe. 'I felt odd posting that but maybe you needed a little reprieve, Maybe you need escapism. I know here in California we could use a little bit,' she said.
