Sad news this weekend from Trace Adkins, whose home burned to the ground yesterday afternoon (6/4). Thankfully, everyone made it out safely, including his children and their babysitter. Wife Rhonda returned home from running errands shortly after the fire started, according to The Boot.
The fire at the Brentwood home apparently started in the garage and spread quickly. It burned for more than two hours, destroying his vehicle, motorcycle, awards and memorabilia.
A statement was posted on his website: “Trace wishes to express his gratitude for the immediate response of the Brentwood Fire Department and is humbled by the outpouring of concern from friends and fans.”
Rhonda credits the family’s safe exit with the fire drills their daughters learned at school.
Adkins was on his way to Alaska for two concert dates at the time. He immediately returned home.
