Kylie Jenner faces a second lawsuit from Juana Delgado Soto, a former housekeeper, who alleges severe workplace discrimination and retaliation after reporting abuse. The lawsuit, filed on April 29, 2026, in Los Angeles County Superior Court, includes claims of racial discrimination, harassment, and wrongful termination.
Soto worked for Kylie Jenner Inc. for six years before filing the complaint. In 2024, she reported her treatment to human resources, detailing how she was mocked and humiliated by her supervisor, Itzel Sibrian. Following her report, Soto claims she faced retaliation—her pay was reduced from $41.66 to $35 per hour and her workload became unreasonable.
Notably, Soto’s allegations are not isolated. Another former employee, Angelica Hernandez Vasquez, also filed a lawsuit against Jenner for similar claims. This pattern raises questions about the workplace culture at Kylie Jenner Inc., particularly regarding how employees are treated when they speak out.
The emotional toll on Soto has been profound; she asserts that her mental and physical health deteriorated due to the alleged abuse. In an attempt to address her concerns directly with Jenner, Soto even sent a letter expressing the extent of her mental anguish.
This legal action seeks punitive and compensatory damages while requesting a jury trial. As the case unfolds, experts suggest that it may highlight broader issues within high-profile workplaces where power dynamics often silence voices of dissent.
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.” This statement reflects a growing sentiment among employees in similar situations across various industries.
The outcome of this lawsuit could set a precedent for how workplace discrimination cases are handled in celebrity contexts. However, uncertainties linger regarding how this will impact Kylie Jenner’s public image and business operations moving forward.
