Kylie Jenner’s legal woes far from over as more ex-employees prepare to sue: ‘This isn’t the end’
More former employees of Kylie Jenner are reportedly preparing to sue her, with a source saying the claims resemble four lawsuits already filed in seven months. The disputes matter because they raise allegations of discrimination, harassment and labour violations by household staff, which Jenner’s representative denies.
The latest case was filed on 5 November by former housekeeper Dinora Carolina Cabria Amaya in Los Angeles. She alleges she was paid $40 an hour in cash, worked six days a week without proper overtime, was trapped in a closet, injured by pepper spray and bitten by a dog, then dismissed after raising concerns. Her lawyer says she will continue to pursue the claims; Jenner’s representative calls the cases meritless and says they will be vigorously defended.
