Steven Tyler’s daughter Mia Tyler is home safe after vacationing in Hawaii amid the deadly Maui wildfires.
The model told her Instagram followers Saturday that she “barely got out” of the island with her 6-year-old son, Axton (via HollywoodLife).
“Halfway through our vacation on Maui we got news that a horrible fire had started an hour north of us. I don’t need to tell you what happened next,” Mia wrote on her Story.
“All I can say is, it was way worse than what you saw on the news and online,” she continued. “Many people and animals have lost their lives. Homes destroyed. Sacred buildings burnt to ashes. Thousand of locals and tourists displaced. And the horrors those people had to see and experience.”
The actress noted that “all [she] could do” was keep her “family and friends safe.”
Mia, 44, concluded her post by begging social media users not to travel to Maui.
“The hotels are helping to home the people of Maui,” she explained. “The island needs to heal and does not need tourists taking up valuable resources right now. The only thing we can do is donate to these wonderful people that need us the most right now. Please help. Any penny helps.”
Maui has been ravaged by wildfires since earlier this month, destroying thousands of homes and leaving nearly 100 people dead and hundreds more missing.
As Jeff Bezos, Oprah Winfrey and more stars donate large sums to the community, Jason Momoa has urged the public not to travel to the popular vacation spot.
“Do not convince yourself that your presence is needed on an island that is suffering this deeply,” the “Game of Thrones” alum, 44, wrote via Instagram Friday. “Mahalo to everyone who has donated and shown aloha to the community in this time of need.”
The “Aquaman” star, who was born in Honolulu, posted a slideshow, reading, “Our community needs time to heal, grieve & restore. That means the less visitors on the island taking up critical resources that have become extremely limited the better.”
