"Dear Didier, At this point we have no idea whether our beautiful home makes it through this terrible moment," the letter began.

"As we evacuate Brignoles we want to emphasise 2 things, first we hope you and the people of our city are safe and second that Amal and i are committed to making sure that whatever happens to our village, we are part of this community and we’ll be part of making it whole," the letter continued.

EUROPE'S FIRES REVEAL DEADLY MIX OF RECORD HEAT, HUMAN ERROR, ARSON AND LAND MISMANAGEMENT

As of Wednesday, an uncontained wildfire roughly four times the size of Paris was burning across southwestern France.  The blaze was separate from the fire threatening the Brignoles area, where about 3,000 people were evacuated. Fires also continued to threaten parts of southern Europe, and three firefighters died in Greece as crews battled extreme heat, drought and strong winds, according to The Associated Press.

More than 300,000 people have been forced to evacuate in France and Spain, including residents and tourists.

Temperatures climbed to nearly 104 degrees Wednesday in France's Gironde region, where the country's largest wildfire prompted the evacuation of roughly 220,000 residents and vacationers at its peak. While many have since returned, tens of thousands remain displaced.

HEATHER LOCKLEAR SAYS SHE LIVES 'FAR AWAY' FROM HOLLYWOOD AND STAYS OUT OF THE SOCIAL SCENE

In an October 2025 interview with Esquire , Clooney said he and Amal chose to raise their family on a farm in France to give their children a quieter upbringing away from Hollywood.

"A good portion of my life growing up was on a farm, and as a kid, I hated the whole idea of it," he said. "But now, for them, it’s like—they’re not on their iPads, you know? They have dinner with grown-ups and have to take their dishes in. They have a much better life."

Clooney also said he was "worried about raising our kids in L.A., in the culture of Hollywood."

"I felt like they were never going to get a fair shake at life," he said. "France — they kind of don’t give a s--- about fame. I don’t want them to be walking around worried about paparazzi. I don’t want them being compared to somebody else’s famous kids."
