Jane Seymour made it out of the line of fire.
The 73-year-old actress posted a series of photos and videos on Instagram on Wednesday, featuring firefighters working to put out a wildfire. Another photo showed just how close the blaze got to her home.
“While the Franklin Fire continues to burn in Malibu and has gotten extremely close to our home, we remain evacuated and we are safe,” she wrote in the caption. “We are deeply grateful for the amazing firefighters and the incredible band of Malibu volunteer firefighters who are risking everything to protect our homes and our community.”
She went on to tell her followers to allow the fire to remind “us of the strength, the bravery, resilience, and compassion that bind us together in the hardest of times,” while encouraging everyone to “continue to support and uplift one another, as we always do.”
