Peter O’Riordan has revealed what’s left of his home, after losing “everything” in the devastating Maui wildfires.
The TV presenter relocated to Hawaii with his wife Stephanie and their children after he was axed from Xposé in 2016.
Earlier this week, Peter and his family were forced to flee their home as wildfires raged through Maui, which he’s described as a “living nightmare”.
House gone, car gone, kids house gone, grandmas house gone, everyone out safe …….this is a living nightmare

The wildfires have so far claimed the lives of 67 people, with over 1,000 people still reported missing.
On Friday night, Peter shared shocking footage of a house completely destroyed by the fire, and told his followers: “This is what [is] left of my children’s home.”
In the video, the Cork native called out for his family’s pets Jagger and Lily, who they had to leave behind when escaping the terrifying wildfires.

In a previous video update, the father-of-two thanked everyone for their support, and revealed how people back in Ireland can help by donating to the local emergency services.
He said: “Hello everyone back home in Ireland. I just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who’s reached out and said prayers and well wishes, obviously from my homeland Ireland to this island which is my new home.”

“I’m safe, my kids are safe, everything is gone, the town is gone. The most important thing is we’re alive. Myself and my team have been rallying and using our boats as water taxis and we’re bringing supplies to people that desperately need it.
“We’ve lost everything but so has everybody else. I just want to keep you in the loop so please do your due diligence when donating to causes over here.”
“The best thing to do is help out the fire department and police.”
