Kylie Jenner faces a second lawsuit from her former housekeeper, Juana Delgado Soto, filed on April 29, 2026. Soto alleges severe harassment and racial discrimination while employed at Jenner’s Hidden Hills estate. This lawsuit comes just days after another former employee, Angelica Vasquez, made similar claims against the reality star.
Delgado Soto began working for Kylie Jenner in May 2019 and claims that her experiences worsened under the supervision of Itzel Sibrian in 2023. According to Soto, she endured abusive treatment from both supervisors and colleagues, including mocking of her accent and immigration status. In fact, she reported feeling threatened with termination after voicing her grievances directly to Jenner in a letter.
This lawsuit includes an extensive list of 20 causes of action, ranging from harassment to employment law violations. It’s alarming to note that Soto also alleges she was denied adequate time off to grieve her brother’s death and was forced to work late on her own birthday instead of attending a surprise party.
That context matters because it highlights a troubling pattern of behavior. Soto’s situation echoes that of Angelica Vasquez, who previously accused Jenner of creating a hostile work environment. Both lawsuits underscore broader issues surrounding celebrity culture and employment practices within high-profile households.
Soto expressed her distress in court documents: “I need to express just how terribly I am mentally abused.” Such statements reveal the emotional toll these experiences have taken on her life. Furthermore, the allegations suggest systemic issues within Jenner’s household management practices.
The legal ramifications for Kylie Jenner could be significant if these claims are substantiated. Della Shaker, Soto’s attorney, stated, “My client alleges multiple employment [and] labor law violations by Kylie Jenner and her affiliated companies.” The outcome of this case could set important precedents for how celebrities manage their domestic staff.
As this legal battle unfolds, reactions from the public and media will be closely watched. The combination of two lawsuits within such a short timeframe raises questions about accountability in celebrity workplaces—are these isolated incidents or part of a larger issue?
The next steps in this case involve court hearings where both parties will present their arguments. As for now, the implications of these lawsuits extend beyond individual grievances; they challenge the norms surrounding employment practices in high-profile environments.
