'Love It or List It Vancouver' co-host Todd Talbot sees cabin destroyed in wildfire

Canadian television personality Todd Talbot has faced a tragic set-back.

The prominent British Columbia-based Realtor was among those who saw their property destroyed amid the raging wildfires currently spreading around Okanagan Lake.

Talbot, who co-hosts "Love It of List It Vancouver," shared a video to Instagram on Friday afternoon of the tragic wildfires engulfing properties in the area. That included his family's "Eh FRAME" home in West Kelowna, which was caught in the McDougall Creek wildfire.

"My heart breaks," the Vancouver-born TV star, 50, wrote in his post's caption. "I have no words. It's over before it really began. The [Eh FRAME] is gone."

Talbot continued to say he was experiencing "so many emotions" alongside his family and the rest of the community.

"Watching my kids in tears is particularly tough," he added. "I fear that the worst is not over for this region. Stay strong and much safety to all those out on the front lines fighting!"

As Talbot grappled the loss of his beloved family cabin, his followers expressed their support and sympathy in the comments section of the Instagram video.

"I could tell how much of yourself, you put into that project, Todd," someone wrote on his post.

"I'm so sorry that this has happened to you and your family. There are no wise words or positivity for it," someone else shared.

"Oh, Todd. I have watched every step of the way as you lovingly built your beautiful Eh FRAME. I'm so very sorry," commented a user.

"I have followed as you've built this dream. We had a place in West Kelowna for the past 13 years and we are gutted. I am a stranger to you but my heart breaks for your loss," added another person.

"Todd — we've just read this. We know how much love and joy you put into the creation of the house. We are so, so sorry this has happened. Thank God that you're all okay, although the emotional pain of this loss is unthinkable. Thinking of you all," one person wrote.

Talbot also shared some of his thoughts on his Instagram Stories in a video recorded from a hotel balcony in Vernon, B.C., north of Okanagan Lake.

"It's hard to stop your brain from thinking ahead and thinking about what the landscape is going to look like and what happens next," he said, noting that his thoughts were with everyone who has been affected by the wildfires.

The Eh FRAME was an A-framed cabin that Talbot and his wife, Rabecca, were in the process of building. Along the way, the couple were sharing the development journey of their family project on social media.

According to its website, the family's recreational property aimed to be eco-aware, family-oriented and fun. The family also had a goal of making it a net-zero building.

The wildfires in the Okanagan region remain on a destructive path.

A state of emergency was declared in British Columbia on Friday, while more than 35,000 people have been ordered to evacuate wildfire zones.

Among the numerous buildings destroyed by the raging wildfires includes the historic Lake Okanagan Resort, which has stood on the waterfront since the late 1970s.

"This is an historic wildfire season for British Columbia," Eby told a briefing earlier this week.

"The state of emergency declaration ... communicates to people across the province the seriousness of the deteriorating situation. (It) enables a number of legal tools for us to issue specific orders and to ensure that resources are available."
