Evangeline smiles in spite of her ruined home
|
December 27, 2006
Lost star Evangeline Lilly and her co-star boyfriend Dominic Monaghan visited the burnt remains of her home on Wednesday night.
The pair waited until sunset before arriving at the house - which was destroyed by fire earlier that morning - in an attempt to salvage any remains.
A source said: "They came with flashlights and wore gloves to sift through the ashes. They only found a few personal items left intact, but Evangeline put on a brave face and managed a smile."
The fire broke out at the star's rented Hawaiian home - which she shared with two female crew members - at 6.30am while she was away on set. The house was entirely engulfed by fire within half an hour.
Honolulu Fire Captain Kenison Tejada said: "When we arrived the house was fully engulfed. The only thing standing was the roof and a couple of the interior walls. Most of the contents had been destroyed. The home was pretty much uninhabitable."
Lilly, 27, who plays Kate in Lost began dating co-star Monaghan earlier this year.
Their visit to search the remains of her burnt home echoed the early scenes of the cult show when the survivors of a plane crashed on a remote island salvaged what they could from the wreckage.
