A-list fame does not insulate a household from the same legal risks as any other workplace, especially in California. Kylie Jenner is now facing a second lawsuit in roughly two weeks, both tied to allegations from household staff about mistreatment and pay issues.
The newest suit, first reported by TMZ on Friday, May 1, was filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on April 29 by former housekeeper Juana Delgado Soto.
A separate complaint, also reported by TMZ and tied to another housekeeper, surfaced in April and describes similar themes of hostility and workplace mistreatment. Both cases are allegations that have not been proven in court.
TMZ reported Friday, May 1, that former housekeeper Juana Delgado Soto filed a lawsuit on April 29 in Los Angeles County Superior Court. The complaint lists about 20 causes of action, including mistreatment, race discrimination, wage-related claims, and failure to prevent or correct mistreatment.
The core allegation is that Jenner’s household management structure did not stop misconduct by a supervisor. In California, employers can face liability based on how they prevent, investigate, and remedy workplace mistreatment, even when the employer is not accused of personally doing it.
Soto says she began working for Jenner in May 2019 and later experienced mistreatment from a supervisor identified as Itzel Sibrian. The lawsuit alleges Sibrian mocked Soto’s foreign accent and made comments tied to immigration status, as described in TMZ’s summary.
Soto also alleges she was not provided with the legally required meal or rest breaks. California’s wage-and-hour rules are strict, and missed breaks can trigger additional pay obligations depending on the facts. The complaint frames the break claims alongside discrimination and mistreatment rather than as a standalone payroll dispute.
According to the complaint, Soto complained about Sibrian’s conduct, and Sibrian was moved to another job. Soto then alleges Sibrian returned to the same position and retaliated by lowering her hourly wages, assigning undesirable work, and changing her schedule.
The filing also describes a birthday incident in which Soto says Sibrian told her, “No one cares about your birthday, Kylie is having a dinner,” and threatened termination if she did not stay late. Retaliation claims often turn on timelines, who made pay decisions, and whether changes followed protected complaints.
Little-known fact: In 2019, beauty company Coty bought 51% of Kylie Cosmetics for $600 million, valuing the business at about $1.2 billion at the time of the deal.

Soto alleges she tried to reach Kylie Jenner about the situation by leaving a note on Jenner’s massage bed. The complaint says she was then told never to contact Jenner again, according to TMZ’s report.
The lawsuit further alleges she was instructed she could not “look at Kylie” or “smile at Kylie,” and that if she saw Jenner, she would have to “disappear.” Those statements, if they become part of the case, would likely be evaluated through testimony and internal workplace communications. Soto says she ultimately resigned, citing anxiety.
TMZ also reported on a separate lawsuit filed by Angelica Vasquez, tied to work at Jenner’s Hidden Hills, California, home. Vasquez alleges she was treated with hostility and exclusion and subjected to severe mistreatment by staff members she identifies as Elsi and a lead housekeeper named Patsy.
Vasquez’s complaint, as summarized in the report, includes allegations tied to religion and nationality, including an alleged remark that “Catholics are horrible people.” She also alleges she was belittled in front of coworkers and subjected to immigration-related taunts. Another claim described in the report alleges a supervisor threw hangers at her.
Fun fact: Jenner launched Kylie Cosmetics in 2015, starting with the brand’s early lip products and later expanding into broader makeup lines.

Jenner was also making headlines away from the courtroom after her bold 2026 Met Gala beauty look. She attended the May 4 event in a custom Schiaparelli gown and paired the dramatic outfit with bleached eyebrows, giving her red carpet look a sharper, more experimental edge.
The eyebrow change became its own talking point after Jenner shared the behind-the-scenes process on Instagram Stories. While trying to dye the brows back after the gala, she laughed at the uneven result and said the look was not coming out the way she expected.
The update turned the glam moment into a more playful story for fans. Jenner later showed that her brows had recovered, writing that “the brows survived,” which kept the focus on her beauty risk as much as her Schiaparelli gown.
