Sofia Richie Sends Message of Support to Those Affected by California Fires After 'Insensitive' Instagram Caption

Sofia Richie is doing a bit of damage control.

The 21-year-old model recently took to Instagram to share a few photos of herself hanging out outside with the caption, “Santa Ana winds- messy bun 🙆🏼‍♀️.”

Sofia then caught some flack from followers calling her caption “insensitive” as the high winds caused a tree branch to fall onto a city power line and ignite the Getty Fire in California.

On Wednesday, the Los Angeles Fire Department said that the Santa Ana “winds are forecasted to be 30-50 mph with peak wind gusts up to 70 mph,” and that Los Angeles is facing “an extreme fire weather threat, meaning that conditions are as dangerous for fire growth and behavior as we have seen in recent years.”

Sofia then took to her Instagram Story to send a message of “love and prayers” to all those affected by the fire.

“Sending my love and prayers to everyone affected by the fires. Tonight’s wind is going to be brutal. Please stay safe,” Sofia wrote along with a broken heart emoji.
