Heidi Montag was spotted shopping for a fresh wardrobe in Santa Barbara on Sunday after losing her $2M home to the horrific LA wildfires that have already claimed numerous lives. 

The reality TV star, who rose to fame on The Hills, shared a TikTok video of herself browsing for sweaters at Marshalls, dressed casually in a peach T-shirt and sporting a ponytail.Montag, 38, was still reeling from the devastation of the fire, which claimed her Pacific Palisades residence and most of her personal belongings. 

"We're going to go shopping and get some clothes because I've been wearing the same T-shirt and jeans for days. I have, like, two outfits. So we're at Marshalls," she explained in the video. The star was particularly drawn to a cream-colored cardigan, commenting, "So many good things, I'm so excited."

The fire, which has killed at least 24 people and destroyed over 12,000 properties, left Heidi and her family with little more than the clothes they were wearing. 

Montag admitted she missed her belongings: "It sounds silly, but it's really making me miss my stuff," she said while shopping for new clothes.

The singer also expressed anxiety about being away from her 6-year-old son, Gunner, for the first time since the fire. 

"Got some great stuff. Having a little anxiety about leaving Gunner... I called and checked on him. This is the first time I've left him since the fires, but he seems to be doing good. I need to take some deep breaths," Heidi shared.

Her husband, Spencer Pratt, has also been struggling with the loss. The couple, known for their Speidi nickname, had to evacuate their home with only the clothes on their backs, including a black T-shirt and shorts. "I was hoping to get some new togs soon," Spencer shared on social media.

Despite their loss, the couple has been incredibly active on social media, updating fans and showing their resilience. 

The Superficial singer has even found support through her music, with many fans purchasing her album, helping it hit the number one spot on iTunes. "Thank you everyone for making my album number one on iTunes," Heidi said via her Insta Stories, overwhelmed by the support. "Thank you for going harder for us, for our family. God bless you all."

Sadly, the flames also impacted the family’s extended circle. Spencer's sister, Stephanie Pratt, shared her heartbreak over the devastation, revealing that their father tried to save their home but was unsuccessful. 

"I am beyond heartbroken for my brother, Heidi, and the kids," Stephanie wrote on Instagram Stories. "Just spoke to my dad—he tried to save my brother's house but the wind is so strong there was nothing he could do."

Stephanie expressed her concern for Heidi and her family’s children, Gunner and 13-month-old Ryker, saying, "How horrible for my sweet little nephews to watch their house disappear like this. They must be so scared and confused."

To support Heidi during this difficult time, many have been purchasing her new album, helping it soar on the iTunes charts. "Thank you to everyone streaming my music and supporting us!" Heidi thanked her fans, "It's top 2 albums on US iTunes, number 1 US pop album!"
