Jane Seymour is suffering from "post-traumatic numbness" after a wildfire forced her to flee her home

She told Us Weekly: "I'm very grateful, incredibly relieved. It's interesting, you kind of have a sort of post-traumatic numbness. It's like, 'Did that really happen?' And it did ...

"Driving around Malibu and looking at all the charred remains is not fun. But really considering what could have happened, we were all very fortunate."

Jane previously admitted she only had time to grab a few precious personal items before fleeing her home as the fire crept closer.

She told PEOPLE: "I took some jewellery that had sentimental value, and I grabbed two books that my mother had saved during World War II in a concentration camp.

"I thought if they could survive that, then they needed to survive this fire, so they came with me."

Jane added of the experience: "It's what we live with in California. I mean, all over the world now. Right? There is no place that doesn't have some natural disaster."

Other stars forced to flee their homes when the wildfire hit earlier this month include pop legend Cher and veteran actor Dick Van Dyke, who had to be rescued by neighbours who found him attempting to crawl to his car to escape the flames.

During an appearance on the 'Today' show, Dick, 99, explained: "It was coming from the hill, you could see it. And oh my God, and we got out of here. I was trying to crawl to the car, I had exhausted myself, I couldn't get up. "

Three neighbours came and carried me out and came back and put out a little fire in the guest house and saved me."

After being evacuated, the actor took to Facebook to assure fans he and his wife Arlene were safe but he revealed his beloved cat Bobo had vanished as they were trying to leave.

He wrote: "Arlene and I have safely evacuated with our animals except for Bobo escaped as we were leaving. We're praying he'll be ok and that our community in Serra Retreat will survive these terrible fires." Bobo was later found safe and well and was reunited with his owners when they returned home.

In a later post on Facebook, Dick shared a picture of Arlene cuddling Bobo alongside officials from Animal Control.

He wrote: "We found Bobo as soon as we arrived back home this morning. There was so much interest in his disappearance that Animal Control was called in to assist. But, thankfully he was easy to find and not harmed."
