Beyoncé’s childhood home in Houston caught fire on Christmas morning.

As reported by KHOU 11, CW 39 Houston and Fox 26 Houston, which cite officials, the fire occurred at about 2 a.m. on Monday at the home, located on Rosedale St.

A couple and their two children who lived in the residence were able to evacuate safely before first responders arrived, and no injuries were reported, Houston Fire Department (HFD) Chief Justin Barnes told KHOU 11.

Firefighters who responded to the scene within minutes saw a fire coming from the home’s second story. It took about 10 minutes to contain the blaze, HFD told Fox 26. Firefighters had to cut the roof of the house to be sure that the fire didn’t spread.

Meanwhile, the singer and her husband Jay-Z are spending their Christmas holiday at their Malibu, Calif., home.

On Christmas Eve, Mathew Knowles paid tribute to his daughters Beyoncé and Solange on Instagram with a touching family pic.

The photo showed the sisters youngsters and dressed up as they were decorating a tree. “At that age, something as simple as putting up an ornament on a tree can feel like the biggest thing the world,” he wrote in the caption. “And, it was to both of them!”

Knowles recalled seeing his daughters at that time on Christmas have fun while celebrating the season and “obviously listening to their favorite music.”

“What I love most about this very moment is the sheer love, determination, and confidence that Beyoncé has in her eyes while looking at Solange,” he further wrote.
