"Houseless, never homeless. Welcome back Ke’ala Coral Ventimiglia 1.23.25," Mariano wrote in the caption. "Jan 7th my family & I evacuated from the Palisades Fire. We lost our home that we were living in & everything we own, as well as our home under construction that we were about to move into. "
We are deeply grateful to all of the heroes who help battle fires, as well as care for everyone affected by the aftermath for years to come," she continued. "This will be an extended process of rebuilding and grieving for many, but we are feeling optimistic & inspired to welcome all of the exciting newness of our fresh start!"The new mom went on to note that the only thing that "truly" mattered during this time was that her and her family were "together, happy, healthy & safe."
Mariano also thanked everyone who supported them, including friends, family, her birthing team, the hospital staff and more."Your love & generosity means everything to us," she added. "Gentle reminder to all, to please allow us this time & space to nest with our newborn in such a delicate phase. We already have everything we need in abundance & will be back around with updates in our own time."
