Mel Gibson’s girlfriend Rosalind Ross jets into LA after boyfriend lost Malibu home in fires

Rosalind Ross was spotted jetting into Los Angeles on Tuesday after her boyfriend Mel Gibson’s home was burnt down in the devastating LA fires.  

Ross, a screenwriter behind the 2022 film Father Stu, donned a black jacket, grey sweats, and white sneakers for her flight into the City of Angels.

She threw a backpack over her shoulder as she strode through the transport hub with a pair of smart glᴀsses over her eyes.

Not pictured with Rosalind, 34, was her longtime boyfriend Gibson, with whom she shares seven-year-old son Lars with.

The Pᴀssion of the Christ director was one of many who lost their homes in the LA fires. 

The movie star, 69, was filming a podcast with Joe Rogan in Austin, Texas during the fires, and returned home to see his $14.5 million Malibu mansion burned down.

‘I was kind of ill at ease while we were talking because I knew my neighborhood was on fire, so I thought, “I wonder if my place is still there,”‘ he said to NewsNation in a phone interview.

Adding: ‘But when I got home, sure enough, it wasn’t there.’

Earlier this month, his publicist Alan Nierob confirmed that Mel’s home of 14 years in Malibu was ‘completely gone’.

Mel called his home ‘perfectly burnt,’ adding that he had flown to Austin, Texas to appear on Joe Rogan’s podcast while the ‘winds were picking up.’

‘It’s just a thing but it’s obviously devastating. It’s emotional,’ the Braveheart star said on Elizabeth Vargas Reports on NewsNation.

He was in Austin during the start of the windy conditions and the fire warnings talking to Joe Rogan on his podcast, and Rosalind was in Malibu.

The movie star said he was on a plane when the winds started picking up in LA.

Elizabeth asked him what his plans were now, with the star joking if anyone wanted to buy the five acres of land it house once sat on.

The Patriot star criticized California governor Gavin Newsom during his appearance on Joe Rogan.

‘We were just talking about the wildfire situation and how crazy it is that they spent $24 billion last year on the homeless, and what they spend on preventing these wildfires,’ Joe said to Mel on the episode.

‘Zero. zip,’ Mel answered.

‘In 2019, I think Newsom said, you know, “I’m going to take care of the forest and maintain the forest” and do all that kind of stuff. He didn’t do anything,’ Mel added.

Mel also spoke to Laura Ingraham on Fox News, where he reflected on the tragedy.

‘These are things and they may or may not be replaceable but we’re still here and I just kind of look at it in a weird kind of a way like a purification,’ he told the host.

When the actor found out about the fires, he said he rushed over to grab a few things with his son.

He revealed that they grabbed their pᴀssports and important documents.

‘My son grabbed like three things and took off and those are okay, stuff like pᴀssports and a couple of papers… [but] its tragic, it makes you really sad,’ the father of nine said.

There’s actually neighbors that I have and I was looking at them and I felt worse for them than I did for myself.’

‘I look at it as a strange mixture of sadness and almost kind of an elation in a sense. I just count my blessings… it is what it is I guess.’

Meanwhile, President Trump recently announced Gibson, Jon Voight, 84 and Sylvester Stallone, 78, as ‘Special Ambᴀssadors’ to Hollywood in a shock Truth Social post.

‘It is my honor to announce Jon Voight, Mel Gibson, and Sylvester Stallone, to be Special Ambᴀssadors to a great but very troubled place, Hollywood, California,’ Trump wrote on Truth Social.

‘They will serve as Special Envoys to me for the purpose of bringing Hollywood, which has lost much business over the last four years to Foreign Countries, BACK—BIGGER, BETTER, AND STRONGER THAN EVER BEFORE!

‘These three very talented people will be my eyes and ears, and I will get done what they suggest. It will again be, like The United States of America itself, The Golden Age of Hollywood!’

Gibson reacted to the appointment in a statement saying: ‘I got the tweet at the same time as all of you and was just as surprised.

‘Nevertheless, I heed the call. My duty as a citizen is to give any help and insight I can. Any chance the position comes with an Ambᴀssador’s residence?’
