Kylie Jenner is facing a second lawsuit from a former housekeeper who alleges she was subjected to harassment and discrimination while working at the reality star’s Los Angeles homes, and that she once secretly handed Jenner a letter detailing her concerns.

The new complaint, filed in Los Angeles, comes just days after a similar case was brought against Jenner by another former employee, adding further legal pressure on her household staff operations and employment practices.

According to court filings, the housekeeper claims she endured a hostile work environment marked by alleged mistreatment from supervisors and other staff members. The lawsuit states that she attempted to alert Jenner directly by slipping her a written letter outlining the alleged abuse and workplace issues.

The letter, described in the filing, reportedly pleaded for help and warned that conditions at work were becoming intolerable. The housekeeper claims that shortly after this attempt, she experienced further difficulties, including retaliation and worsening working conditions.

The lawsuit also alleges broader issues within Jenner’s household staffing structure, including claims of discrimination, excessive workloads, and denial of basic workplace protections. Jenner is named in the suit alongside her companies and third-party staffing agencies.

Jenner’s representatives have not publicly commented on the latest filing, and she has not been accused of directly engaging in the alleged conduct. In similar employment-related cases, her legal team has previously denied wrongdoing and stated that internal systems are handled by staff and external contractors.

The case adds to a growing wave of legal disputes involving household staff in celebrity homes, where plaintiffs often allege that senior figures were unaware of day-to-day workplace conditions but remain legally named in complaints due to employer responsibility structures.

As proceedings continue, the central question will be whether Jenner had knowledge of the alleged issues raised in the letter, and what responsibility, if any, she bears for the reported treatment of staff within her residences.
