Hilary Duff is lending a helping hand to her friend Mandy Moore.
The “Lizzie McGuire” alum and businesswoman has taken in the family of the “This Is Us” actress, who lost her home in the Los Angeles wildfires that have ravaged large swaths of Southern California.
Moore said in an update on social media that “miraculously, the main part of our house is still standing” for now. “It’s not livable but mostly intact,” she said on Instagram.
Moore’s brother-in-law and drummer Griffin “Griff” Goldsmith of the band Dawes took to Instagram to praise Duff for letting Moore stay with her after the family’s home was deemed uninhabitable. Moore is married to Dawes singer Taylor Goldsmith and the pair share three children.
“Our dear friends @matthewkoma and @hilaryduff thought it wise to set up a gofundme for us to help with everything moving forward,” the musician wrote. “Not to mention they are currently housing my brother’s family. They’ve taken care of my entire family from the moment this began. I will never be able to thank them adequately.”

He continued, writing of Duff’s family: “This is the kindest act any human could do for another. They are the most beautiful, selfless people we’ve ever known.”
“Unfortunately, we aren’t the only people reckoning with this. We’ve all had to watch our home, the city we love so much, transform overnight into an infernal hellscape. And it’s by no means over….” Griffin Goldsmith added.
The Los Angeles wildfires are continuing to decimate parts of Southern California. Powerful Santa Ana winds returned to the LA area on Tuesday, threatening to reverse some of the progress made in the battle against deadly wildfires that have destroyed entire neighborhoods and forced tens of thousands to flee their homes.
At least 24 people have been killed in the fires, according to the Los Angeles medical examiner’s office. The wildfires have destroyed or damaged more than 12,000 homes, businesses, and other structures as officials ordered over 92,000 people to flee their homes.
