Almost 180,000 people have been forced to evacuate their homes as six fires raged throughout the city after the original blaze began in the Pacific Palisades on January 7. Ten people are believed to have died as a result of the fires and at least 10,000 buildings have been destroyed, including the homes of several Hollywood stars. The Talented Mr. Ripley actress, 52, explained that her menopause symptoms worsened due to ‘drinking every night.’ ‘I’m really in the thick of it right now, so I’m all over the place,’ she said during Tuesday’s episode of her Goop podcast. She continued: ‘But I noticed my symptoms are, like, pretty well under control unless, you know, in January when the fires were happening in L.A. I’ve, like, used alcohol for its purpose.’ https://www.instagram.com/p/DDQBoRBCtcD/?hl=en ‘Normally, now at this point, I don’t drink a lot at all. Maybe I’ll have one drink a week,’ Gwyneth – who shares two children with Coldplay lead vocalist Chris Martin – added, but explained her symptoms ‘were completely out of control. It was the first time I really noticed, like, causation in that way.’ Although the Glee actress’ home – which she shared with husband Brad Falchuck — remained safe, she took to social media in January to express her condolences to those who lost their homes. ‘Our beloved Los Angeles… We are in deep grief for so many of our close friends who have lost everything,’ she shared on Instagram at the time. ‘Thank you to those inquiring, we are currently safe.’ ‘I’m really in the thick of it right now, so I’m all over the place,’ she said during her latest Goop podcast (Picture: Getty)
