Steven Tyler’s daughter, Mia Tyler, 44, took to social media to let fans know she and her six-year-old son, Axton, had managed to make it out of Maui.
The Rush Hour 3 star took to her Instagram Stories on Sunday to recount the horrifying scenes she witnessed before flying out of the island.
Mia emphasized that the damage is “way worse” than the already-horrific footage that has been circulating online.
Sharing photos of the aftermath in Front Street in Lahaina, Mia wrote: “I don’t know where to start.
“Halfway through our vacation on Maui, we got news that a horrible fire had started an hour north of us.
“I don’t need to tell you what happened next. All I can say is, it was way worse than what you saw on the news and online.”
The actress continued: “Many people and animals have lost their lives. Homes destroyed. Sacred buildings burnt to ashes.
“Thousands of locals and tourists displaced. And the horrors those people had to see and experience.”
She added: “Trying to keep my family and friends safe was all I could do. We were in a sacred paradise and could do nothing.”
Mia went on to plea with people not to travel to Maui and to instead donate to help the relief efforts.
She typed: “PLEASE DO NOT TRAVEL TO MAUI, as the hotels are helping to home the people of Maui.
“The island needs to heal and does not need tourists taking up valuable resources right now.
“The only thing we can do is donate to these wonderful people that need us the most right now. Please help. Any penny helps.”
Mia finished her statement adding: “I pray this land heals and comes back stronger like it always does.”
