The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Adrienne Maloof fired back at the lawsuit brought by her former housekeeper, accusing her of failing to pay her in full, Us Weekly can exclusively report.
On October 31, Maloof, 64, filed court docs denying all claims of wrongdoing in the lawsuit brought by Ana Rosales.
The businesswoman said her former employee was not injured and has not suffered any damages. In addition, Maloof argued that any damages she did suffer were the result of her own actions.
Rosales filed the lawsuit against Maloof on August 22 in Los Angeles Superior Court. In her suit, Rosales said she worked at Maloof’s $16 million mansion in Beverly Hills from April 1, 2021, to September 14, 2024.
The suit claimed Rosales was paid $22 per hour.
The suit claimed Rosales was not provided proper meal and rest breaks during her employment. The housekeeper’s lawyer added they believe Maloof “falsified [Rosales’] hourly rate and the total number of hours labored per pay period for the sole purpose of avoiding payment of lawful wage deductions, payment of federal and state payroll taxes, payroll contributions …. By providing [Rosales] with inaccurate and non-itemized wage statements during each pay period and failing to provide all wages due at the time of” Rosales’ severance.
In the legal docs, Rosales claims Maloof did not authorize her to take a lunch or meal break. The suit demanded $16,000 for unpaid meal breaks, another $16,000 for unpaid rest breaks, $4,000 for alleged labor code violations, $5,000 in penalties and other unspecified damages.
The case is ongoing.
Maloof is a member of the famed Maloof family and the only daughter of billionaire George Maloof Sr. The businesswoman’s brothers are George J. Maloof Jr., Joe Maloof, Gavin Maloof, and Phil Maloof.
Adrienne was one of the original cast members on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She left the show after season 3. Adrienne did not attend the reunion taping for her final season.
In 2019, Adrienne spoke to Us about the potential of her returning to the Bravo reality show. “Cameos, yes. But to go full-time, it’s a full-time job and I’m still raising three boys,” she explained.
Adrienne shares sons Gavin, 22, and 19-year-old twins Collin and Christian Nassif with ex-husband Paul Nassif.
She added, “I see [the Housewives] on and off at events. I’m busy with my own children, but you know, I think I have a respect for any of them to do reality television It’s not easy. We keep in touch. I’m going to New York for BravoCon.”
In May, Adrienne shared an update on her family with Us. “They’re all in college now, so I’m an empty nester,” said. “I have [Christian] going to USC, [Collin] in Dallas, [Gavin] is in San Diego so they’re all over the place, but they’re doing wonderful.”
“[My ex-husband Paul] and I are coparenting. We’re actually friends,” Adrienne added. “We’re better friends than we were probably married, but we’re raising three boys and we have to figure it out because that’s what you got to do. You have to for the sake of your kids. But we’re friends. We’re very good friends.”
The Bold and the Beautiful (B&B) spoilers hint that Brooke Logan (Katherine Kelly Lang) might catch Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) and Taylor Hayes’ (Rebecca Budig) sizzling moment. Will Brooke end up reeling over Sheila Sharpe’s (Kimberlin Brown) cheating hubby?
Taylor is trying to maintain some professional boundaries with Deacon, but it’s tough now that he’s awakened something inside her.
Both Deacon and Taylor feel a certain pull toward each other that’s only going to get stronger in the coming episodes.
The show already offered up a slow dance fantasy between Taylor and Deacon at Il Giardino.
However, B&B may let Taylor and Deacon have some truly sizzling scenes if this keeps up.
It’d be a waste if they had all this buildup without truly going there, so let’s hope Deacon and Taylor will at least make out!
If Taylor and Deacon hit the sheets at some point, that’d be even better since it’d escalate the drama.
Regardless, Deacon seems poised to betray Sheila with Taylor, so it’s just a matter of when it’ll happen and who’ll find out first.
This seems like the perfect story for Brooke to get involved in for a couple different reasons.
For starters, Brooke just stole Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) back from Taylor and would like to see her find happiness with someone else.
That’s something Brooke’s been rooting for, but she’ll be taken aback if she learns Taylor is finding her bliss with Deacon.
Since Deacon is Brooke’s ex, that could add another layer of messiness to all this.
Deacon feels a certain bond with Taylor because they’re both Ridge and Brooke’s “roadkill” in his eyes.
At some point, Brooke may witness Taylor and Deacon surrendering to temptation.
Perhaps Brooke will spot Deacon kissing Taylor or even walk in on them stripped down for some passion somewhere.
That could put Brooke in a tight spot if Taylor and Deacon beg her to keep quiet.
Brooke doesn’t want to keep secrets from Ridge, so would she tell him anyway?
Whatever the case, Brooke may sound the alarm if she catches Deacon cheating on Sheila with Taylor in the coming episodes.
Since Brooke knows what it’s like to be targeted by Sheila, she may fear for Taylor’s safety and warn Deacon that he’s playing with fire.
The Bold and the Beautiful spoilers say Sheila could get some scandalous news and unleash her wrath down the road, so stay tuned for updates on all the excitement.
