Paris Hilton shared in her networks the loss of one of her closest friends
The forest fire that has hit the island of Hawaii is already considered the most devastating that the United States has experienced in at least a century. So far, 93 bodies victims of the fire have been found, in addition to the number of missing persons amounting to a thousand.
Despite all this chaos, socialite Paris Hilton decided to travel to Hawaii to vacation with her husband Carter Reum and their six-month-old son, Phoenix Barron. Hilton was seen at an exclusive resort in Wailea wearing a swimsuit in blue and pink tones, gray checkered pants, sunglasses, and a green cap, while her husband wore a pink swimsuit, black shirt, sunglasses, and a cap .

The images captured Paris having fun in the paradisiacal place that is 48 kilometers from the area where the disaster has been greatest: Lahaina, being a journey of less than an hour between both areas. The photographs of Paris have caused all kinds of comments on the networks, most of them calling the businesswoman whose fortune amounts to USD 300 million dollars of being completely disconnected from reality.
It was this Monday when Hilton was seen in Hawaii, while the authorities asked both tourists and locals to leave the island since last Wednesday. In this context, Hilton would keep dozens of people fulfilling their whims in the tourist complex where they are staying, without considering that any of these workers have lost homes, friends or family during the fire.

“Visitors on non-essential travel are being asked to leave Maui, and non-essential travel to Maui is strongly discouraged at this time. In the days and weeks ahead, our collective resources and attention must be focused on the recovery of residents and communities who were forced to evacuate their homes and businesses,” the Hawaii Tourism Agency wrote in the midst of the emergency.
However, it seems that Paris did not only go to Maui to take advantage of the low influx of tourists due to the chaos. According to sources close to the socialite, Maui is a place that Hilton is very fond of, because since he was young he vacationed with his family there. The trip had already been planned long before the disaster occurred, and once there, he decided to make several donations for the victims.

“Toilet paper, toothbrushes and other household items” were some of the donations that both Paris and Carter made during the crisis. The source also claimed that a restaurant owned by a relative from Paris also burned down.
“She has a lot of friends and family there and it’s a second home for her. Her uncle’s restaurant in Lahaina caught fire, so they decided to cut her trip short and go see her family and help out where they might,” the source stated of Paris’s situation in Hawaii.

And just as many have railed once morest Paris Hilton for her presence on the island, many others applaud her decision to stay to help the victims, especially without the need to bring a camera crew to capture her as a hero.
It is unknown if Hilton is already out of Hawaii, but other celebrity figures such as Jason Momoa, a native of Honolulu, has asked his followers on networks to avoid traveling to Hawaii completely, even with the intention of helping the victims. Momoa reiterated that the donations made are more than enough and the risk of more victims is reduced to a minimum.

“Maui is not the place to have your vacation right now. DO NOT TRAVEL TO MAUI. Do not convince yourself that your presence is necessary on an island that is suffering so deeply, ”wrote the Aquaman protagonist on his Instagram.
