Meet Hollywood actor Milo Ventimiglia s wife, model Jarah Mariano
My family and I left the Palisades Fire on January 7. We lost our house and everything we owned, as well as the house we were building and planned to move into. In addition to being 38 weeks pregnant, I had also participated in an evacuation during the Franklin Fire a few weeks before.
I consider it a blessing that I was able to undertake a sort of trial run for what was bound to happen. In addition, I will always be thankful that we were able to leave the Palisades Fire during the day so that we could feel better prepared and not be caught entirely unprepared, like we would have been in the middle of the night.The most important thing is that my family and I are together, content, safe, and healthy. We are incredibly appreciative to all the heroes that fight fires and provide care for those impacted by the aftermath for years to come.
Many people will need time to rebuild and grieve, but we are feeling upbeat and motivated to embrace the wonderful newness of our new beginning, Jarah added.I want to express my gratitude to everyone who has helped my family and me during this difficult time, including my birthing team, friends, family, hospital staff, businesses, the LA community, and others. We are so grateful for your generosity and affection.We kindly ask that everyone give us this time and space to nest with our infant at this crucial stage. We already have plenty of everything we need, and we’ll return when it’s convenient for us.I’m constantly sending you light and aloha.Jarah Milo Ke a Duke
Congratulations from friends and fans alike poured in for the happy pair.
When they were evacuated from their house during the fires, Milo’s wife Jarah was expecting a child.
The couple was unable to remove everything, including the crib and other objects in their baby’s nursery, but they were able to take what they could.
Milo portrayed Jack Pearson in the NBC show This Is Us. In a February 2018 episode, his home burned down, and he sadly perished from smoke inhalation.
And the SAG winner thought, “You know, it’s not lost on me, life imitating art.”
In a recent interview with Entertainment Weekly, he remembered a particularly trying time during production seven years ago.
Milo commented: “Your live effects crew that were in charge of it were so responsible, but still, when you’re staring at a seven-foot wall of flames, it’s hard not to be completely intimidated by the brutal, fierce fear of what that represents.”
However, Milo stays safe and has his priorities set, unlike his fictitious character Jack.
“We’re working with good people and have good friends, so we’ll get by,” he said. The most important things are the wife, child, and dog.
