George and Amal Clooney evacuate France home as wildfires spread across Europe - Fox News

What the report says

Fox News, citing People, reported that George and Amal Clooney left their home in Brignoles in southern France as wildfires threatened the area. A representative for George Clooney confirmed to People that the couple had sent a message to Brignoles Mayor Didier Brémond before evacuating with their 9-year-old twins from the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region.

In the letter described by Fox, the Clooneys said they were unsure whether their property would withstand the fire and expressed concern for the mayor and residents of the community. They also said they considered themselves part of Brignoles and intended to help the village recover, whatever the damage. Fox News Digital said it had sought further comment from Clooney’s representatives about the family’s safety and the status of the home.

The evacuation was presented as part of a wider wildfire emergency across southern Europe. Fox reported that about 3,000 people were evacuated from the Brignoles area, while a separate major fire in southwestern France was burning over an area several times the size of Paris. The article also cited broader displacement in France and Spain, with more than 300,000 residents and tourists forced to leave threatened areas, and noted that firefighters were contending with heat, drought and strong winds.

Fox added personal context from a recent Esquire interview in which Clooney discussed the family’s life on a French farm and their preference for raising their children away from Hollywood attention. The report underscores how the European fires have affected both local residents and high-profile property owners.
