It was never Beverly Hills before. A lot of these were generational homes that were passed down, and they can&#8217;t rebuild. Unfortunately, for us right now, it&#8217;s just not looking hopeful.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">The pop star revealed that one of the most heartbreaking parts of her family&#8217;s situation is the toll that it has taken on her young children.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">&#8220;I think it&#8217;s really hard for my 3-year-old,&#8221; she shared. &#8220;He keeps asking to go home and I&#8217;m like, it&#8217;s not there. He says, &#8216;I&#8217;ll push it back up. I&#8217;m strong.&#8217; Every animal he sees, he says their house burned down.
