Zooey Deschanel shares fiance's Jonathan Scott big move after family home tragedy
Zooey Deschanel reveals fiancé’s role in restoring her lost home
Zooey Deschanel revealed her fiance Jonathan Scott helped her parents build a fireproof home after it burned in the Los Angeles wildfires earlier this year.
In a recent chat with People, the 45-year-old actress shared that her fiance of two years, who is the Property Brothers star, “came to the rescue” after her parents lost their L.A.-area home
“We’re rebuilding my parents’ house. We're rebuilding their house in non-combustible materials — it’s really cool to learn about all that,” she shared.
Zooey, who starred in Prime Video's new rom-com Merv, said that the house project is going to be major work in the new year.
“We just started. It takes a while to get everything designed,” Zooey shared. “It takes a while to just get everything squared away.”
Zooey's parents' house, where she grew up with her sister burned to the ground after the Pacific Palisades wildfire spread to their home.
The New Girl alum posted a touching tribute in memory of her childhood home back in January.
“It was not a mansion but it was cozy and lovely and unique and perfect to me. One of my friends growing up called it ‘The Church’ because the 14 foot ceilings with stained glass windows in the living room cast colorful shadows at the end of the day. And to me, it was holy, a sanctuary where we felt most safe,” she penned down at the time.
Zooey went on to pour her heart out, "The family photos that lined the hallways, the artwork, the piano I learned to play on, the wedding china, the furniture my great great grandfather built… the reminders of generations past: All have vanished into thin air."
“I know we are not alone. Along with another beautiful LA neighborhood, Alta Dena, the streets of my childhood in Pacific Palisades have been all but erased as we knew them. So many people have lost so much," she added.
