Kylie Jenner faces a second lawsuit from former housekeeper Juana Delgado Soto, who alleges severe workplace discrimination and retaliation after reporting her mistreatment. This lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, highlights troubling claims about the treatment of employees at Kylie Jenner Inc..
This latest case follows similar allegations made by another former employee, Angelica Hernandez Vasquez. Soto worked for Kylie Jenner for six years, during which she claims to have endured racial discrimination, harassment, and wrongful termination.
Soto reported her treatment to human resources in 2024, but instead of support, she alleges retaliation followed. Her supervisor, Itzel Sibrian, allegedly mocked and humiliated her, creating an intolerable work environment. But what happens when employees stand up against such behavior?
According to Soto, after filing her complaint, she experienced reduced pay—from $41.66 to $35 per hour—and unreasonable workloads that further affected her mental and physical health. She described her situation as one of severe mental abuse.
Key claims in the lawsuit:
- Soto alleges that she was subjected to racial discrimination and harassment.
- She claims that her supervisor mocked her and enforced unreasonable restrictions on her behavior around Jenner.
- Soto is seeking punitive and compensatory damages for the emotional and physical harm suffered.
Soto attempted to communicate directly with Jenner about her treatment through a letter, but no action was taken to address her concerns. Della Shaker, Soto’s attorney, emphasized that “no employee—regardless of the power, wealth, or fame of their employer—should ever be forced to endure unlawful working conditions.”
The legal landscape surrounding workplace rights continues to evolve. As these cases unfold, they shine a light on how employers must respond to allegations of misconduct. The next steps in this case will be closely watched as it progresses through the legal system.
