Cara Delevingne is heartbroken by the roaring fire that destroyed her $7 million Los Angeles mansion early Friday morning.

“I think she’s probably devastated,” her mom, Pandora Delevingne, told a photographer in a video obtained by TMZ Friday night.

“She had everything in her home. Her whole life,” Pandora continued while she and her husband, Charles, stood in line to see Cara perform in “Cabaret” at London’s Playhouse Theatre.

Meanwhile, Charles said the fire was believed to be electrical, starting after “something fell on” a powerline during “very windy” conditions.

A public information officer for the Los Angeles Fire Department told Page Six Friday they received a call at around 3:57 a.m. local time, after which a “heavy fire” was discovered.

They detailed that the fire started near the back of the property and “consumed” a room, causing the roof of the entire home to collapse. The fire burned for over two hours, requiring 94 firefighters to put it out.

Meanwhile, a spokesperson for the Los Angeles Police Department said they received a call for a fire at 4:29 a.m. They confirmed no one had to be evacuated from the home.

While an official cause for the flames has not been released, The LAFD told Page Six there was “nothing to suggest that it was criminal activity.”

The LAPD added, “There is no indication of an arson or criminal investigation right now.”

Cara spoke out about the destructive fire on her Instagram Story earlier Friday.

“My heart is broken today… I cannot believe it,” she wrote. “Life can change in the blink of an eye. So cherish what you have.”

She caused alarm by sharing her message atop a snapshot of her two cats but later clarified that they were safe.

It appears the show went on in London at the Kit Kat Club as normal, despite Cara’s upsetting loss.

She is scheduled to perform through June 1.
