Cara Delevingne's $7 million home was destroyed by a fire in the early morning hours of March 15.
The model-actress's property, which is located in Studio City — a neighborhood in Los Angeles's San Fernando Valley — went up in flames shortly before 4 a.m. It took almost 100 firefighters more than two hours to get the blaze under control.
"Firefighters arrived to find a 6,650-square-foot two-story home built in 1971 with heavy fire in the rear, which consumed one room in the rear and developed into a deep-seated attic fire," a Los Angeles Fire Department spokesperson told "Entertainment Tonight."
"Crews confirmed all occupants were out of the home, and then pulled back into defensive mode due to the long duration of heavy fire exposing the structural members," the spokesperson added. "The house subsequently sustained a roof collapse, as firefighters continued to apply hose streams from the exterior. Ultimately, it took 94 firefighters two hours and 16 minutes to access, confine and extinguish the flames."
Cara was not at home at the time — she's been in London performing as Sally Bowles in "Cabaret" at the Playhouse Theater in the West End.

A TMZ videographer briefly spoke to Pandora Delevingne and Charles Delevingne — Cara Delevingne's parents — after finding them in London, where they were attending a performance of "Cabaret," the musical in which the model-actress is currently starring.
Pandora said Cara is "devastated."
"She had everything in her house," said her mom, "her whole life."
Charles said the origin of the fire is believed to be "electrical" and involved a "power line" as it's been "very windy there."
