Kylie Jenner sued by housekeeper over ‘harassment, discrimination and labour violations’

Kylie Jenner is facing legal action from a former employee who has filed a lawsuit alleging harassment, discrimination and labour violations during her time working as the reality TV star’s housekeeper

Kylie Jenner is facing legal action from a former employee who has filed a lawsuit alleging harassment, discrimination and labour violations during her time working as the reality TV star’s housekeeper.

The 28-year-old is named in court documents alongside the companies Kylie Jenner, Inc., Tri Star Services LLC, La Maison Family Services LLC and ‘Does 1 through 25’, who have yet to be identified, in a complaint brought by Angelica Vasquez, whose age has not been publicly disclosed.

According to documents obtained by Us Weekly, Angelica began working for Kylie in September 2024, initially at her Beverly Hills property before being reassigned to her residence in Hidden Hills.

The filing outlines a series of allegations relating to Angelica’s treatment while employed within the household staff.

Angelica claimed she was treated with “hostility and exclusion” by fellow employees and alleged she was “subjected to severe and pervasive harassment” while working at the Hidden Hills property.

According to the filing, Angelica alleged she was “assigned the most difficult and undesirable tasks” and was “excluded” and “humiliated” in front of colleagues due to “race, national origin and religion”.

The documents further state supervisors allegedly “snapped their fingers” at her and often “shouted”, while she was “falsely accused” of misconduct in a “demeaning and degrading manner”.

The documents also claim Angelica was asked to surrender her phone for inspection and accused of “speaking negatively” about coworkers.

The filing states: “This conduct was continuous and created a toxic and abusive work environment,” adding the housekeeper was subjected to “repeated discriminatory and derogatory” statements, including alleged remarks about “immigration status”.

Angelica, described in the filing as a Salvadorian woman and practising Catholic, alleged she was “mocked for her accent and treated as inferior”.

The documents also say she made multiple complaints, including one in November 2024, which were allegedly “dismissed, mocked or ignored”.

By March 2025, the situation allegedly escalated, with coat hangers reportedly thrown at her feet, according to the filing.

The complaint also raises concerns over pay, alleging wages – including overtime – were not fully paid and that meal and rest periods were not provided.

Angelica claimed she developed “anxiety, severe stress and symptoms consistent with post-traumatic stress disorder” before taking medical leave in July 2025.

She resigned the following month, citing “ongoing harassment, discrimination, retaliation and unlawful working conditions”.

Angelica further claimed she has suffered “emotional distress; anxiety and PTSD symptoms; loss of wages” as well as “discrimination; retaliation; wage violations; and disregard for employee rights”.

She is seeking a jury trial, according to the documents.

Kylie has not publicly commented on the allegations.
