The ever-expanding Thomas fire, burning in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, forced Ellen DeGeneres and Portia de Rossi to evacuate their new beachside home Sunday, and Rob Lowe to leave his home in Montecito, TMZ and other outlets are reporting.

As of Monday afternoon, the week-old Thomas fire still threatened the coastal communities of Carpinteria, where DeGeneres and de Rossi have a home, and Montecito, the Los Angeles Times reported. That left the Montecito homes of Oprah Winfrey, Jeff Bridges, Drew Barrymore and Patrick Stewart still in the fire’s path, TMZ said.

Winfrey tweeted her prayers for the community on Sunday.

“Peace be Still, is my prayer tonight. For all the fires raging thru my community and beyond. #peacebestill”

The small unincorporated community of Montecito is known as a haven for celebrities.

Just south of Montecito is the beach town of Carpinteria, where six structures burned Sunday, the Los Angeles Times reported.

DeGeneres tweeted Sunday morning that she and wife De Rossi just evacuated their pets from their recently purchased beach house in Carpinteria, for which they paid $18.6 million in October, TMZ said.

Our house is under threat of being burned. We just had to evacuate our pets. I’m praying for everyone in our community and thankful to all the incredible firefighters. The live stream is on https://t.co/FTcKVvHO16 — Ellen DeGeneres (@TheEllenShow) December 10, 2017

Everyone in the Montecito area is checking up on each other and helping to get people and animals to safety. I’m proud to be a part of this community. I’m sending lots of love and gratitude to the fire department and sheriffs. Thank you all. #ThomasFire — Ellen DeGeneres (@TheEllenShow) December 10, 2017

It wasn’t clear if DeGeneres herself had evacuated the home. TMZ reported Monday that DeGeneres had also just bought a new six-acre estate in Montecito, in a gated community next door to Winfrey’s more lavish estate. DeGeneres’ new $7.2 million property includes two Spanish-style homes, one which was built in 1845.

Lowe had left his home late Sunday afternoon, TMZ reported earlier.

The Thomas fire, one of several wildfires currently burning in Southern California, has already consumed more than 230,000 acres in Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, the Los Angeles Times reported Sunday night. It is the fifth largest wildfire in California history.

The blaze has destroyed some 800 homes in the city of Ventura and in unincorporated areas of Ventura County. Gusting Santa Ana winds, aided by extremely low humidity, pushed the fire over into Santa Barbara County Saturday night. On Sunday, it grew by more than 50,000 acres and hit the beach town of Carpinteria.

As the fire grew Sunday, containment dropped from 15 to 10 percent, authorities told the Los Angeles Times.

Most school districts in Santa Barbara County canceled Monday’s classes, the Los Angeles Times said. Several of those districts will be closed until after the New Year. UC Santa Barbara Chancellor Henry T. Yang also announced that the university has postponed final exams until next year.

This story has been updated to include news from Monday afternoon that the fire still threatened the coastal communities of Montecito and Carpinteria.
