NY Post
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may have their power cut at their sprawling $29 million mansion as raging wildfires continue to rip through the surrounding area.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who moved to Montecito, Calif., in 2020, may be forced to evacuate from the plush property if the blaze continues to spread.
Southern California Edison (SCE) confirmed that it was considering a “Public Safety Power Shutoff” in parts of Santa Barbara County due to the wildfire risk, The Telegraph reported.
Impacted customers in the county, including those in Harry and the “Suits” alum’s neighborhood, were being contacted by the power company.
The Sussexes settled down in the 18,000-square-foot modern home in the “high fire risk” area with their two young children, Prince Archie, 5, and Princess Lilibet, 3, more than four years ago.
The duo, who wed in 2018, snapped up the property for $14.65 million in the summer of 2020. The lavish home has now doubled in value, and is worth a whopping $29 million, per Zillow.
