Los Angeles, California — Khristianne Uy, a prominent Fil-Am chef known for her work with the Kardashian family and other celebrities, is facing a lawsuit alleging sexual harassment and a hostile work environment. A former employee, identified as Jane Doe, filed the suit in Los Angeles Superior Court, claiming she was compelled to resign due to Uy’s conduct.
The lawsuit asserts that Doe, a 26-year-old lesbian, experienced unwanted sexual advances from Uy. Despite rebuffing these advances, Doe alleges Uy persisted, creating an uncomfortable work atmosphere. The suit details instances of alleged sexual assault, discrimination, and emotional distress, seeking $10 million in damages.
Court documents highlight claims of racially charged and derogatory language used by Uy. Doe also alleges Uy offered employees Adderall to endure long shifts and made discriminatory remarks towards heterosexual male staff. Additionally, she stated that job security was a concern if Uy was displeased.
The suit claims Uy’s “brazen” behavior and “feeling untouchable” contributed to the hostile environment. Doe asserts that she left her position due to the ongoing sexual harassment and discrimination. Uy has worked with celebrities such as Charlize Theron and Megan Fox.
