SAN JOSE, Calif. — Kylie Jenner has been hit with her fourth lawsuit in seven months from a former member of her household staff, with the attorney for all four female plaintiffs saying their allegations of poor working conditions highlight the challenges domestic workers face while in the employ of wealthy people like Jenner.

“How many domestic workers are afraid to report unlawful treatment because they believe their employers are too powerful to challenge?” attorney Della Shaker said in a statement to Page Six.

“The truth should never be buried behind wealth, fear, or silence,” Shaker added. “No one should fear speaking the truth.”

In this latest case, filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court on Nov. 5, Dinora Cabria Amaya, who started working for Jenner in March 2025, alleges that she was bitten by one of Jenner’s dogs, accidentally exposed to pepper spray and became trapped inside the reality TV star’s closet for more than an hour while a supervisor laughed at her pleas for help, Page Six and Rolling Stone reported.

While the lawsuit does not accuse Jenner of directly mistreating Amaya, it suggests that the makeup mogul plays a role in decisions regarding supervision and scheduling of employees and in alleged unlawful wage practices, Rolling Stone reported. Amaya said she typically worked six days a week for Jenner, and was paid $40 an hour in cash, Page Six also reported. Her lawsuit also accuses Jenner, her companies and several members of her team of disability discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination and numerous labor violations.

Among the allegations of mistreatment, Amaya said she suffered multiple workplace injuries that were mishandled, Rolling Stone reported. For example, she said she was cleaning a laundry room in September 2025 when an unsecured can of pepper spray allegedly discharged directly into her face and eyes, causing “severe burning and vision problems.”

After Amaya reported the incident via text, her manager directed her to fill out a report and give it to Jenner’s security team before she could visit a doctor, Rolling Stone reported. Amaya said she later received no accommodations when she reported experiencing “significant eye pain, blurred vision, headaches, burning, irritation, and sensitivity” that affected her performance, Page Six also reported.

The following month, Amaya said she was cleaning a doghouse when Jenner’s dog bit her, Page Six reported. While Amaya again immediately reported the injury to a manager, she said she was again given no meaningful assistance and had to treat the wound herself with over-the-counter medication.

“She continued reporting that her eyes hurt, her arm and wrist hurt from the dog bite, and her back hurt from the increasingly physical work,” Amaya’s lawsuit said, according to Rolling Stone.

On another occasion, Amaya said she used a passcode to enter Jenner’s closet but became locked inside, Rolling Stone reported. She said she began to suffer a panic attack, but her manager said no one was at the house to let her out so she would just have to wait. The manager also allegedly “mocked her” during the call, her lawsuit said.

Amaya said she was terminated in February, after requesting she be paid mileage for trips between Jenner’s houses during a single shift to complete various tasks. She believes she was fired because she spoke up about her wages and workplace treatment, according to Rolling Stone.

Jenner’s lawyer, Michael Rhodes, dismissed Amaya’s lawsuit and told Rolling Stone that these new claims come from the same lawyer who represents the other female workers who sued the Kylie Cosmetics founder earlier this year.

“It’s clear that this lawyer wants to use publicity to try and extract an unwarranted payday,” Rhodes told Rolling Stone in a statement. “We’re not going to be intimidated into doing that. As such, we’ll defend these meritless cases vigorously and look forward to telling our side of the story.”

But Shaker said Amaya and her three other clients will not back down. Their cases are still pending in Los Angeles County Superior Court.

“For employees working in high-profile households, the fear of losing future employment opportunities can be overwhelming,” Shaker said to Rolling Stone. “When your livelihood depends on discretion, references, and powerful professional relationships, speaking out can feel impossible. But no employer has the right to retaliate against workers for protected complaint.”

Two other former housekeepers filed similar lawsuits in April over alleged mistreatment they said they suffered while working for Jenner.

On April 17, Angelica Hernandez Vasquez filed a lawsuit, alleging she was subjected to harassment and discrimination because of her Salvadoran background, Catholic faith and immigration status, Page Six and TMZ reported at the time. Vasquez said she worked for Jenner from September 2024 to August 2025, according to TMZ.

Fewer than two weeks later, Juana Delgado Soto also filed a lawsuit, which alleged that Jenner presided over a household where she was regularly mistreated, as the Daily Mail reported at the time. At one point, Soto was told she was “no longer allowed to look at Kylie” and was restricted from using the bathroom or drinking any of “Kylie’s water” inside the home.

In her lawsuit, Soto also said she went so far as to slip the reality star a note, begging for her help to stop the “mental abuse,” according to the Daily Mail.

In her note, Soto said, “I need to express just how terribly I am mentally abused,” the Daily Mail reported. Soto, who began working for Jenner in 2019, also told the influencer: “I really apologize for letting you know about all these situations, I know you wouldn’t allow this to happen, if you were aware of it.”

But after Soto hoped she had made Jenner aware of the situation, she was allegedly threatened with termination the next day and told she must never contact Jenner again, the Daily Mail reported.

Two months after Soto filed her lawsuit, a fourth former employee, a private chef, also sued Jenner and several members of her team, alleging pregnancy discrimination and wrongful termination, Page Six reported.

The chef, only identified as Jane Doe in the court filings, also is represented by Shaker. She claimed in her lawsuit that she suffered a miscarriage after being required to work physically demanding shifts despite having a high-risk pregnancy, Page Six reported.

After working long hours for a Jenner family birthday celebration in Palm Springs, the chef alleged that she woke up the following morning with severe bleeding, Page Six reported. She learned at the hospital that she had lost the pregnancy and alleged she was later fired following her miscarriage.
