Leonardo DiCaprio was spotted arriving in Mexico alongside Vittoria Ceretti after escaping the raging Los Angeles wildfires in his private jet.
The fires, which have been burning since January 7, have destroyed more than 10,000 buildings and killed at least 24 people with 150,000 under evacuation orders.
Numerous celebrities have lost their homes, including Paris Hilton, James Woods, Eugene Levy, and Mel Gibson.
Titanic actor DiCaprio, 50, was pictured arriving in Los Cabos, Mexico, on a private flight alongside his rumoured girlfriend Ceretti, his father George, and George’s wife Peggy Ann Farrar.

DiCaprio is reported to own a property in Los Angeles, though it has not been confirmed whether it has been affected by the wildfires.
It has raised some eyebrows as DiCaprio founded the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation in 1998 to support organisations and initiatives dedicated to promoting sustainability.
According to Airport Technology, private jets have been found to be five to 14 times more polluting per passenger than commercial flights.
The actor was spotted deboarding the plane with his loved ones wearing black trousers, a grey hoodie, and his signature black cap.
Ceretti, who DiCaprio was first linked to in 2023, wore a similarly casual all-black outfit with black sunglasses.
His flight comes as fires have torn through Los Angeles, with various celebrities contributing to charities offering aid to those affected.
The X Factor judge Simon Cowell posted an emotional message about the effects of the wildfires on his Instagram page, sharing information on how others can help aid organisations.
‘Los Angeles has been my second home for the past twenty five years. I am devastated by what I’ve seen and read. What is happening right now is horrific,’ he said.
‘Like many other people I want to do something to help. I have done some research and I will be donating to @redcrossla. I have added their link in my bio for further information on ways to support.
‘I am sending my thoughts, love and prayers to everyone affected. Love, Simon x.’
Celebrities including Sir Anthony Hopkins, Adam Brody and Leighton Meester have all had their homes destroyed in what has been called the most destructive fire in the city’s history.
