Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag Say They’re ‘Displaced,’ Can’t Afford to Rebuild Home After Wildfires

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt are opening up about the painful reality they’re facing one year after their home was destroyed in the devastating and deadly 2025 Los Angeles wildfires.

In a new interview with Gold Derby that dropped on Wednesday, February 25, Montag, 39, revealed she and Pratt, 42, still have no permanent place to live. The couple share two sons — Gunner, 7, and Ryker, 3 — and say the loss has reshaped every part of their lives.

“Unfortunately for rebuilding, we just don’t have the finances. We barely could pay the mortgage on that house,” Montag told the outlet. “We spent our whole careers to put a down payment on it. So we’re unfortunately in a place where we aren’t looking to rebuild and we’re not really sure where to go. We’re kind of displaced at the moment.”

Montag explained that many longtime residents are in the same situation. “People don’t realize that a lot of people can’t rebuild,” she said, adding that her 3-year-old, Ryker, is struggling most.

“He keeps asking to go home and I’m like, ‘It’s not there.’ He says, ‘I’ll push it back up. I’m strong.’ Every animal he sees, he says their house burned down,” the Hills alum explained. “So it’s really continuing to affect him a lot.”

She also recalled grabbing her kids’ teddy bears during the evacuation. “How do you choose?” she said.

The devastation pushed Pratt to run for mayor of Los Angeles, telling Fox News in January that the city showed “criminal negligence” over the response to the fires.

The former reality star is “convinced he’s got a real shot,” a source recently told In Touch.
