Simon Cowell ‘devasted’ by LA wildfires where he bought $25 million Beverly Hills mansion

Simon Cowell has expressed that he is “devasted” by the impact of the LA wildfires currently roaring through more than 25,000 acres of Los Angeles County as the death toll reaches 24.

The Britain’s Got Talent judge, who formerly owned a £19 million ($35 million) property in Beverley Hills, took to Instagram to share a heartfelt video urging those who can afford it, to offer financial aid to those in need.

“Los Angeles has been my second home for the past twenty five years,” the music mogul began.

“I am devastated by what I’ve seen and read. What is happening right now is horrific. Like many other people I want to do something to help. I have done some research and I will be donating to @redcrossla”.
