Mandy Moore has hit back after being criticised for asking for donations to help her family who were left homeless in the Los Angeles wildfires. Thousands of firefighters are attempting to control the original fire in Palisades - which has burnt nearly 16,000 acres - and seven other blazes raging through southern California.

Mandy Moore is grieving the loss of her neighborhood and her home, which was ravaged by the still-active Eaton Fire burning in Los Angeles County.

The former "This Is Us" star returned to find the main part of her Altadena, California, home "miraculously" still standing, though not livable, she said in an Instagram post.
