Kylie Jenner Named in Lawsuit by Ex‑Housekeeper Alleging Discrimination

The case tests how far celebrity employers are held responsible for conduct by household staff.

Overview

  • The civil complaint, filed in mid‑April 2026, names Jenner as the employer and surfaced in media reports this week.
  • Plaintiff Angélica Vásquez, a Salvadoran Catholic, says co‑workers mocked her faith and origin and used comments about deportation to intimidate her.
  • She alleges supervisors identified as Elsi and Patsy yelled at her, snapped their fingers to give orders, and once threw hangers at her after she complained.
  • The suit seeks unpaid wages and missed breaks and says the treatment triggered anxiety and PTSD‑like symptoms before a July 2025 medical leave and an August 2025 resignation.
  • The filing does not describe specific abusive acts by Jenner and also names staffing firms Tri Star Services and Maison Family Services, while sources close to Jenner cite attendance and performance issues as the case begins.
