Khloe Kardashian's ex-household assistant suing for unpaid wages, says he was 'wrongfully' fired after injury
Khloe Kardashian is being sued by her former household assistant who alleges that the reality star wrongfully fired him after he injured his knee and took disability leave. Matthew Manhard worked for Kardashian from January 2019 until November 2022 and took a leave of absence after he fractured his knee last May, requiring surgery, according to courts documents obtained by Fox News Digital. Manhard claims that after he took disability leave allowed by California law, he requested to return to work last November but was told Kardashian had no work for him, then he was fired in "retaliation." The lawsuit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court on Tuesday also alleges that Kardashian failed to give Manhard required meal and rest breaks and wasn’t paid overtime when he frequently worked 12-hour days.
