Mandy Moore Shares Pic of Sweet Newborn Urges Followers to Hold Tight to Loved Ones Amid L.A. Fires!
The singer previously revealed that most of her Altadena, Calif. home was lost in the Eaton Fire
As wildfires rage on in Los Angeles, Mandy Moore is grateful for her family.
On Friday, Jan. 10, the mother of three shared an adorable photo of her youngest child via social media after previously announcing that she lost most of her Altadena, Calif., home in the Eaton Fire.
“My sweet LouLou Bean. Hold tight to your loved ones, and friends. Love you, LA,” Moore, 40, captioned a single photo Instagram upload of her daughter Louise “Lou” Everett Goldsmith.
In the picture, Lou smiled while cozied up in a car seat, holding her mom’s finger.
The This Is Us alum welcomed her baby girl with her husband Taylor Goldsmith in September 2024. The couple, who have been married since 2018, are also parents to sons August “Gus” Harrison Goldsmith, 3, and Oscar “Ozzie” Bennett Goldsmith, 2.
Earlier this week, Moore shared that her family and community suffered great losses from the deadly Eaton Fire.
“I’m in shock and feeling numb for all so many have lost, including my family. My children’s school is gone. Our favorite restaurants leveled. So many friends and loved ones have lost everything too. Our community is broken but we will be here to rebuild together,” she said on Instagram on Wednesday, Jan. 8.
The carousel contained two videos of her driving around to check on the neighborhood and survey the damage.
The following day, she revealed that “miraculously, the main part of our house is still standing.”
Unfortunately for the “Only Hope” singer, that was all that remained, in addition to some rubble.
“It’s not livable but mostly intact,” she wrote. “We lost our garage and back house. Everyone we know lost everything. Every house on our street is gone.”
More than 14,000 acres have burned in the Eaton Fire as of Friday night, according to Cal Fire. It is currently at 3% containment.

On Tuesday, Jan. 7, the wildfires began in the Pacific Palisades along the Pacific Coast Highway, but have since spread into multiple ongoing blazes throughout the L.A. area.
Dry vegetation created the perfect environment for flames to spark, while severe winds gave them fuel to spread. In addition to the natural factors, city officials also faced backlash when fire hydrants in the Palisades ran out of water.
The blaze, which is still going, has covered more than 21,000 acres as of Friday night.
Earlier in the day, Calif. Gov. Gavin Newsom demanded an investigation into the “deeply troubling” mishap, adding that “while water supplies from local fire hydrants are not designed to extinguish wildfires over large areas, losing supplies from fire hydrants likely impaired the effort to protect some homes and evacuation corridors.”
“We need answers to how that happened,” he said.
