Kylie Jenner’s legal battle with an ex-employee is heating up. 

The Kardashians star wants her former private chef to reveal her identity in public court records after the woman sued Jenner anonymously in June, Page Six reports. According to court records obtained by the tabloid, Jenner’s attorneys have asked a judge in Los Angeles to force the woman—currently known as Jane Doe—to use her real name in public court records. 

Jane Doe took the Kylie Cosmetics founder to court earlier this year, claiming that she experienced a miscarriage while working for the reality TV personality. 

“Plaintiff’s pregnancy allegations do not satisfy the high bar to proceed anonymously,” Jenner’s lawyers wrote in their filing. They say that if she wanted to remain out of the limelight, she could have pursued her claims against Jenner in private arbitration rather than going to court. They also say that Jenner was not the woman’s employer. 

However, the woman’s attorney says Jenner’s request is out of line. “Kylie Jenner already knows the identity of Jane Doe,” Della Shaker said. “The question is why she believes the public needs to know it, too. My client has already endured the devastating loss of her unborn child and has courageously come forward to seek justice.”

“Now, instead of addressing the serious allegations against her, Ms. Jenner is seeking to expose my client’s identity to millions of people,” Shaker’s statement continued. “What legitimate purpose does publicly identifying a woman who suffered such a devastating loss serve, other than to subject her to further scrutiny, humiliation, and pressure? Is the objective justice, or is it to make the consequences of speaking out so unbearable that my client feels compelled to settle? Enough is enough.”

Jane Doe alleges that she experienced a pregnancy loss in February 2025 after she was forced to work long hours and complete physically demanding tasks, even though she told her supervisors that her pregnancy was high-risk. 

The woman claimed she suffered a miscarriage in February 2025 after being forced to work long hours and perform physically demanding tasks despite informing her supervisors that she had a high-risk pregnancy. Now, she says having to reveal her identity will force her to relive a traumatic experience. She also said that she fears being associated with the lawsuit will jeopardize her career in the private culinary industry. 

In her complaint, Jane Doe says she had a miscarriage after working long hours at a birthday party in Palm Springs for one of Jenner’s children. Despite informing her bosses of her miscarriage, she was reprimanded for leaving the kitchen in disarray. Later, she was told her behavior was irritating Jenner. 

“Stop it, just stop it. You are upsetting Kylie. You are making her depressed,” she claims she was told shortly before she was fired. 

Jane Doe is one of several of Jenner’s former employees who’ve recently sued, claiming they were mistreated while working for her, NBC News reports. That includes a former housekeeper who says she was trapped in a closet, bitten by a dog, and accidentally pepper-sprayed in the face. Another woman who also worked as a housekeeper says she was mocked for her Catholic faith and Salvadoran background, while a third housekeeper alleges discrimination and wage violations. All four women are represented by Shaker.
