Paris Hilton’s son Phoenix wants to help others when he grows up.

Speaking during a new interview, the DJ and heiress, 43, revealed that her 2-year-old son wants to be a firefighter in the future amid her losing her Malibu home in the Los Angeles wildfires.

“He said he wants to be a fireman,” Hilton responded when asked by TMZ what her little boy wants to do as a career.

The reality TV star went on to share that she was “heartbroken for everybody who has lost everything” following the devastation caused by the fires.

“The families, the children, the animals, it’s just been heartbreaking to see what’s happened to California,” she told the outlet.

Hilton also discussed fostering a dog named Zuzu, whom she previously revealed she had taken into her home after the pooch’s family “unfortunately had to surrender her after their home was destroyed in the wildfires.”

“We love Zuzu,” Hilton told TMZ as she looked at her son Phoenix. The mother of two shared that Zuzu’s owners lost their home in Altadena in the fires and she and her family have been fostering him for the past week.

“We’ve all just fallen in love with him,” Hilton added, before revealing that the family is now going to adopt the dog.

As for whether or not she is planning to rebuild her home, Hilton said her husband, Carter Reum, is “dealing with all that.”

Hilton’s comments come just over a week after she revealed the burnt remains of her Malibu home after it was destroyed in the Pacific Palisades fire.

“I’m standing here in what used to be our home, and the heartbreak is truly indescribable.💔🥺,” Hilton wrote alongside the footage shared on Instagram. “When I first saw the news, I was in complete shock — I couldn’t process it. But now, standing here and seeing it with my own eyes, it feels like my heart has shattered into a million pieces.😢💔.”

She continued, “This house wasn’t just a place to live— It was where we dreamed, laughed, and created the most beautiful memories as a family. “

“It was where Phoenix’s little hands made art that I’ll cherish forever, where love and life filled every corner. To see it reduced to ashes… it’s devastating beyond words.💔,” Hilton, who is mom to daughter London, added.

The video showed that all that appeared to be left of the home was the property’s entranceway and a few walls, with the rest reduced to rubble.

The Paris & Nicole: The Encore star revealed on Jan. 8 that she learned her home had been destroyed while watching the news in a live segment.

Thousands are still under evacuation orders amid the fires, while the death toll has risen to 27, according to an update from the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner on Jan. 16.
