Kimora Lee Simmons says she's safe after her Los Angeles home caught on fire Saturday.
The entrepreneur, 48, shared on her Instagram Story over the weekend that "the kids and I are all fine" after the house fire, according to screenshots of her posts taken by People magazine and Complex.
In a photo, according to the outlets, the first responders from the Los Angeles Fire Department are seen standing in front of a smoke-filled fireplace.
"I cannot express the deepest gratitude to the numerous battalions, ladders and units that attended to us for many hours today and quite possibly saved our lives," she continued on her Instagram Story. "THANK YOU!"
USA TODAY has reached out to representatives for Simmons and the LAFD for comment.
The Baby Phat CEO and former model is mom to five children: daughters Ming, 23, and Aoki, 21, with ex-husband Russell Simmons; son Kenzo, 14, shared with ex Djimon Hounsou; and son Wolfe, 8, with estranged second husband Tim Leissner.
She also has a son, Gary, 14, whom she welcomed via adoption in 2020.
In recent posts, the businesswoman praised her model daughters, who have followed in her footsteps.
Earlier this year, Simmons was seen snapping photos with her phone and cheering on daughter Aoki Lee Simmons from the front row during New York Fashion Week.
