A statement from the star's rep read: "Fazer became aware of smoke coming from the attic of his home. With his daughter in bed, he rushed upstairs to evacuate her to safety before calling for the fire brigade.
"Fazer re-entered the building, leaving his daughter in her uncle's care, as he and his father-in-law tried to tackle the blaze, battling against the smoke and fumes of the fire.
"Firefighters arrived to distinguish the fire and once everyone was safe and the property has been secured, he told the story via video footage online.

Speaking in a video on his social media site, Fazer said: "Oh my f***ing God, this is mad, fire in my house.
"You're never gonna guess what happened last night, first of all let me just say everyone is safe."
He went on: "About 10.30 last night I had a fire in the house, a real f***ing fire."
Fazer then shared a video of a pile of burnt-up clothes and shoes outside, and added: "The whole aftermath of everything. Burnt up clothes.
"I've got to give blessings that everyone is OK, it could have been madness, it could have been so mad."
"I tried to put the flames out myself, it was burning up my face I couldn't breathe. So mad.
The star admitted: "I can see why people die from these fumes and this smoke, the whole water tank went."
He concluded: "Material things can be replaced the main thing is the family is safe, my missus, my daughter, everyone is OK."
Fazer, real name Richard Rawson, shot to fame in N-Dubz, but has since settled down with his partner Ashley Emma and their daughter Ava Rose Rawson.
