A fire has broken out at the former home of ITV presenter Ant McPartlin.
Dozens of firefighters raced to tackle the blaze in Chiswick this morning accompanied by six fire engines. The £5 million property on Grove Park Gardens belongs to the star’s ex-wife, Lisa Armstrong, who rents out the house.
London Fire Brigade said they were called to the property at 9.46am and a 32m ladder was deployed at the scene of the incident.

A local resident told The Independent this morning: “The fire looks pretty serious and definitely not under control. An ambulance passed me as I drove down the road with blue lights and siren on.”

The house is being rented by a family of six, the Mirror reported, but the nanny and the cleaner were the only people present when the fire broke out.
The nanny reportedly spotted smoke coming from the first floor bedroom of the property.
Fire brigade crews from Chiswick, Hammersmith, Richmond and surrounding fire stations were all at the scene.
The blaze has since been brought under control, though the cause of the fire is not yet known.
