Kim Kardashian And Kanye West Reportedly Hired Private Firefighters To Protect Their House

Fires are ripping through California right now and celebs such as Miley Cyrus and Gerard Butler have had their homes completely destroyed by the flames. One couple who weren’t about to let that happen were Kim and Kanye West, who reportedly hired their own personal firemen to protect their house.

According to TMZ,  the blaze started to creep up on Kim and Kanye’s Hidden Hills mansion Friday after a mandatory evacuation of the area. Sources told the American media outlet that the couple hired a private team to battle the flames on their property. The team was armed with hoses, and also tirelessly dug ditches to create a fire break.

I heard the flames have hit our property at our home in Hidden Hills but now are more contained and have stopped at the moment. It doesn’t seems like it is getting worse right now, I just pray the winds are in our favor. God is good. I’m just praying everyone is safe 🙏🏼

Because Kim and Kanye’s house is on the edge of a field, the fire would have spread really quickly if the team hadn’t been able to contain it. They successfully saved the West’s $60 million house and many others.  TMZ spoke with multiple neighbours who are reportedly very thankful to the family and their team.

We’re defo not surprised these two wouldn’t let their house go without a fight.
