Jennifer Garner has revealed that she lost a friend to the devastating wildfires that continue to rip across Southern California.

At the time of writing, the death toll is said to have risen to 25, with intensifying winds threatening further destruction in the coming days.

The fires, which have terrorized Los Angeles over the past few days, have burned a combined area of 60 square miles, and the return of Santa Ana winds promises conditions that will only serve to fan the flames.

Needless to say, thousands have lost homes, livelihoods, belongings, pets, and hope. Others, tragically, have lost more than that.

Among them is actress Jennifer Garner, who revealed in an interview with MSNBC earlier this week that one of her friends had died in the fires.
