Cara Delevingne suffered a massive loss when her home caught fire Friday.

The model-turned-actress owns a home in the Studio City area of Los Angeles, and firefighters arrived at the address to tame a "heavy fire" just before 4 a.m. 

The cause of the fire is unknown and under investigation.

The fire began at the back of the house, according to the Los Angeles Fire Department, then spread into the attic.

Eventually, the roof collapsed, and structural beams began to show. Ninety-four firefighters worked over two hours to extinguish the fire, the LAFD said.

Delevingne wasn't at home at the time of the fire. She's staying in London, where she is starring in a theater production of "Cabaret." There were people inside the home, but it isn't clear who they were. They escaped safely, with one person experiencing minor smoke inhalation.

One firefighter was transported to a hospital in fair condition.

Delevingne addressed the incident on her Instagram story, sharing a photo of her two cats and writing, "My heart is broken today. I cannot believe it. Life can change in the blink of an eye. So cherish what you have."
