Kylie Jenner has been hit with her fourth lawsuit from a former household employee in seven months, after a former housekeeper filed a complaint in Los Angeles Superior Court on 5 November alleging she was bitten by a dog, exposed to pepper spray and locked inside a closet for more than an hour.
Dinora Carolina Cabria Amaya, who says she began working for Jenner in March 2025, accuses Jenner, her companies and several members of her staff of disability discrimination, retaliation, wrongful termination and labour violations, according to court documents obtained by Page Six.
The closet allegation
Amaya claims she was told to enter Jenner’s walk-in closet using a passcode but could not get back out, and that she contacted supervisor Laura Dooley for help, only to be met with laughter and mockery, according to the complaint. She says she was trapped inside for more than an hour. She also alleges she was bitten by Jenner’s dog and accidentally exposed to pepper spray while working at the beauty mogul’s Los Angeles home.
The complaint states Amaya was paid $40 an hour in cash while typically working six days a week, and alleges she was routinely denied overtime pay and was not reimbursed for mileage or travel time between Jenner’s properties. She says she was dismissed on 6 February 2026, shortly after questioning why another housekeeper was receiving mileage reimbursement while she was not. The lawsuit seeks unpaid wages, lost earnings and compensatory and punitive damages.
Jenner’s team rejects the claims
Jenner’s attorney, Michael Rhodes, strongly rejected the allegations, telling Page Six the cases were brought by the same lawyer who had previously filed claims on behalf of Jenner’s former household staff, and accusing the lawyer of using publicity to seek an unwarranted financial settlement. All four women are represented by attorney Della Shaker, according to reports.
The latest complaint follows three other workplace lawsuits this year: former housekeeper Angelica Hernandez Vasquez sued on 17 April, alleging harassment and discrimination based on her Salvadoran background, Catholic faith and immigration status; Juana Delgado Soto filed on 29 April, accusing Jenner of discrimination, harassment and retaliation; and a former private chef identified as Jane Doe sued on 22 June, alleging pregnancy discrimination and wrongful termination. None of the allegations in any of the cases have been established in court.
