Meghan Markle surprises teen who lost home in LA fires
Transcript
00:00I was just told that something arrived that I had been waiting for.
00:04Oh my god.
00:08About two or three weeks ago, when my husband and I were in Altadena,
00:12we went to a community where all the homes were left in ashes.
00:19This mom had found a couple things, and as I was talking to her,
00:23I turned and looked, and I saw this young woman, and I said,
00:27Oh my gosh, how old are you? She's 15. She lives there.
00:30And her mom shared something with me and said that when they came back
00:35to see their house for the first time, which was as we were meeting them,
00:38that all that she'd been looking for in her home was the T-shirt
00:44from the Billie Eilish concert that she had just gone to
00:47that she left in the washing machine or the dryer.
00:50And of course, they now see their home in the washing machine,
00:53the dryer, or ash. They're not there anymore.
00:55And so I said, Well, I don't know Billie Eilish, but I'm going to figure out
00:57how to get you this shirt. So I thought of everybody that I knew,
01:00and I made a voice note, and I was like, Please, can someone
01:03get this voice note to Billie Eilish? Here's what I'm asking.
01:06You guys, I don't even know what all of this stuff means,
01:09but it's signed for her.
01:12Is that a thing, a lunchbox thing? I don't know.
01:15This is when I feel really old.
01:16Huge thank you, Billie Eilish. This is going to mean so much to her,
01:19and honestly, to Adam Levine and Behati.
01:23You guys helped get this over the line.
01:25To everyone who's showing up for people in big and small ways
01:28to get through what's happened in California,
01:31just thank you so much.
01:33I'm going to go and email her mom now.
01:35Just wanted to share that with you guys.
