Spencer Pratt Opens Up About Palisades Fire Loss and His Ambitious Plan to Run for Los Angeles Mayor

Reality TV star Spencer Pratt, best known for his role as the villain on the hit show “The Hills,” has faced his fair share of challenges in recent times. In 2025, Spencer and his wife Heidi Montag suffered a devastating loss when their home in Pacific Palisades was destroyed in a fire. However, instead of letting this tragedy hold him back, Spencer has found a new sense of purpose and is now inspiring to make a difference in his community by announcing his plans to run for Los Angeles Mayor.

In an exclusive interview with Access Hollywood’s Scott Evans, Spencer met at the site of his former home, where he reflected on the traumatic experience and how it has fueled his desire to take on a new challenge. Access Hollywood caught up with Spencer to talk about his journey, his relationship with Heidi, and his newfound passion for politics.

Spencer’s decision to run for mayor stems from his desire to rebuild and revitalize the community that has been affected by the fires. He believes that his experience in the entertainment industry, combined with his passion for his city, make him an ideal candidate for the job. “I want to use my platform to make a positive impact on the city I love,” Spencer said. “I’m not a traditional politician, but I’m willing to learn and work hard to make a difference.”

Spencer’s new memoir, “The Guy You Loved To Hate: Confessions from a Reality TV Villain,” is out now, offering an intimate look into his life, including his time on “The Hills” and his relationship with Heidi. The book provides a unique perspective on the reality TV world and Spencer’s experiences as a villain on the show.

As Spencer looks to the future, he remains committed to his community and his goal of becoming the next mayor of Los Angeles. With his determination and passion, he hopes to inspire others to join him in rebuilding and revitalizing the city. For more information on Spencer’s campaign and his memoir, visit spencerpratt.com.
