Country music star Carrie Underwood and her family narrowly avoided disaster over the Father’s Day weekend when a fire broke out at their residence in Tennessee. According to reports from Williamson County Fire & Rescue, emergency crews responded swiftly to the incident just before 10 PM on Sunday.
The fire originated in the garage of Carrie Underwood and her husband Mike Fisher’s home, prompting an immediate response from firefighters across eight stations. Thanks to the presence of a 10,000-gallon water tank on the property, crews were able to quickly contain the blaze and prevent it from spreading to the main residence.
A representative for Carrie Underwood confirmed to TMZ that despite the dramatic turn of events, there was no damage to the primary residence and, most importantly, no injuries to the family or their pets. The cause of the fire remains under investigation as firefighters continue to monitor the scene for any potential hotspots.
This incident comes at the end of a challenging month for the “American Idol” alumna. Just days before the fire, Carrie had a mishap on stage at the Carolina Country Music Fest in South Carolina, where she slipped and fell during a performance in a rainstorm. Despite these setbacks, Carrie Underwood has remained resilient, sharing moments of peace and gratitude on her social media amidst the unexpected events.
As Williamson County Fire & Rescue concludes their investigation into the fire, Carrie Underwood and her family are thankful for their safety and the quick response of the emergency services that prevented a more serious outcome on this Father’s Day.
