The gates of Hidden Hills are designed to keep the world out, but a massive crisis is spilling over. Kylie Jenner is being sued by a second housekeeper for failing to stop harassment on her private estate. The reality star and beauty mogul faces a mounting legal crisis as former staff members step forward. The allegations paint a grim picture of life behind the velvet ropes of her compound.
Juana Delgado Soto filed her explosive lawsuit this Wednesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court. The timing is notably brutal.
Soto began her employment in May 2019. The complaint outlines twenty distinct causes of action. She alleges severe racial discrimination and a failure to pay proper wages. According to the court documents, Soto claims her direct supervisor, Itzel Sibrian, relentlessly mocked her foreign accent and immigration status. The work environment allegedly devolved into a toxic space defined by retaliation.
The breaking point finally arrived on her own birthday shift.
Sibrian allegedly threatened to fire Soto if she refused to stay late. Soto claims she was bluntly told that no one cared about her birthday because Jenner was hosting a dinner. She ended up missing her own surprise party.
The situation reached an apex in April 2025. Soto wrote a detailed letter begging for help and placed it directly on Jenner's massage bed. The plea completely backfired. Soto alleges she was threatened with termination the very next day. Management explicitly instructed her never to contact her employer again. The directives became increasingly bizarre. She was told she could no longer look at or smile at her boss.
Supervisors allegedly forced Soto to clean the doghouse. They even barred her from drinking at the residence, referring to it as Kylie's water.
The cruelty allegedly extended beyond bizarre behavioral rules. Under the leadership of supervisors Patsy and Elsy, Soto claims she was denied adequate time off to grieve the sudden death of her brother. She was ordered to report to work immediately. Fellow staff members reportedly whispered that she was lying about the tragedy. They allegedly forced her to pick up trash they purposely threw on the ground.
She claims she was even harassed when requesting time off to attend his funeral Mass.
These details construct a narrative of systemic abuse. The estate functions as a highly controlled ecosystem where workers are allegedly subjected to psychological torment without any clear path for recourse or mediation.
This complaint follows closely on the heels of another lawsuit. Angelica Hernandez Vasquez sued Jenner and management companies Tri Star Services and La Maison Family Services on April 17. Vasquez alleged similar exclusionary tactics and derogatory comments regarding her Salvadoran heritage and Catholic faith. Neither lawsuit accuses Jenner of direct personal bullying behavior.
Vasquez claims her complaints were dismissed. She alleges a supervisor threw hangers at her feet during a reprimand.
The presence of Tri Star Services and La Maison Family Services in the filings highlights the corporate machinery behind celebrity households. Outsourcing staff provides a layer of legal insulation. The strategy is designed to shield high net worth individuals from direct liability. However, the sheer volume of these allegations threatens to pierce that corporate veil in the court of public opinion.
Celebrities rarely manage their own household staff directly.
The timing compounds a broader public relations headache for the couple. Jenner's boyfriend, Timothée Chalamet, is currently executing a strategic retreat from Hollywood after his own bruising spring.
A brutal awards season campaign left Chalamet reeling. He faced intense backlash after a disastrous CNN Town Hall appearance with Matthew McConaughey. His offhand remark that no one cares about ballet or opera alienated artistic circles. The resulting fallout forced the actor into hiding to repair his image ahead of his upcoming Dune and Wonka sequels.
The actor suffered a high profile Oscar loss to Michael B. Jordan.
The couple now finds themselves navigating twin scandals in absolute silence. They are learning that extreme visibility often transforms minor controversies into major cultural liabilities.
A representative for Jenner declined to comment on the latest filing. Soto officially resigned via text message in August 2025, telling her supervisors she had bitten all her nails off from anxiety. She is now seeking punitive and compensatory damages. The courts will soon decide if the architecture of a billionaire's privacy comes at an illegal cost to the people maintaining it.
