Matthew Manhard, a household assistant, has dragged his former employer Kloe Kardashian to court for wrongfully sacking him from his job in November 2022.
As per the lawsuit obtained by TMZ, Manhard sued the reality TV star claiming he was fired after returning from leave of absence taken due to leg injury.
He also claims in his lawsuit, that he started working for Khloe in 2019 before he was allegedly fired in November 2022, after returning from leave of absence taken due to his condition.

Manhard also alleged in his lawsuit against Khloe that he was often so busy completing tasks for Khloe that he was unable to take his legally required breaks.
‘It’s unfortunate to learn that a former employee would choose to go this route. Matthew was properly classified and compensated for his role,’ Khloe’s legal representative told TMZ while reacting to the lawsuit.
Addressing the leave of absence Manhard took, the rep said: ‘Toward the end of his employment, he was on a leave of absence for an extended period of time and the role eventually needed to be replaced. We will not tolerate false accusations and will prove that this is a frivolous lawsuit.’
