Kylie Jenner Faces Fourth Household Worker Lawsuit in Seven Months

November 10, 2026

Dinora Carolina Cabria Amaya filed suit on November 5 in Los Angeles Superior Court, accusing Kylie Jenner, her companies and staff members of disability discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination and labor violations. It is the fourth lawsuit by a former household employee against Jenner or her companies in seven months.

Amaya said she started working for Jenner in March 2025 for $40 an hour in cash, usually six days a week. She alleged she worked long hours without overtime pay and was not compensated for travel between properties or mileage. She said she was fired on February 6 after asking why another housekeeper received mileage reimbursement.

The complaint alleges that Amaya became stuck in Jenner’s closet for more than an hour after entering with a passcode. She also said pepper spray discharged into her face while she cleaned a drawer in September 2025, and that a dog bit her the following month as she cleaned its doghouse. She alleged she received no meaningful help after reporting the bite and was instructed to remain away from view, as Jenner preferred not to encounter her.

Amaya’s attorney, Della Shaker, said the case raised concerns about domestic workers fearing they cannot challenge powerful employers. Jenner’s attorney, Michael Rhodes, called the claims meritless, said the cases were brought by the same lawyer, and said the defense would contest them.

The other lawsuits include claims by two former housekeepers and a private chef. Those cases remain in court; the chef’s request to use a pseudonym is due for a hearing in January 2027.
