Howard Stern Hit by $2.5M Lawsuit Over Hamptons Work Chaos
Key Points
- Former Hamptons executive assistant alleges firing after whistleblowing on chaotic, hostile mansion operations
- She claims a promised raise and bonus were rescinded before she was abruptly terminated
- Lawsuit says she was forced into an overly broad NDA, banning even trivial personal disclosures
HOWARD Stern is slammed with a staggering $2.5 million lawsuit from his ex-executive assistant over a chaotic and hostile Hamptons work nightmare.
Leslie Kuhn, who managed the Sterns’ Hamptons mansion staff and Beth Stern’s sprawling cat rescue, claims she was fired after blowing the whistle on ‘immense pressures’ and ‘massively disorganized’ operations, according to Page Six.
Court docs reveal Kuhn was promised a raise and bonus in late 2025 — but the deal collapsed by February when she was abruptly axed.
She alleges Howard’s production company forced her to sign a suffocating NDA blocking her from spilling details about her job or firing.
The gag order even banned her from revealing trivial personal info about Howard and Beth, from their restaurant picks to sleeping habits.
Her lawyer blasted the power imbalance: “She is entirely muzzled… at a distinct disadvantage against someone exceptionally more powerful.”
Kuhn also exposed ‘questionable business operations and accounting practices’ behind the scenes.
Stern, 72, has yet to respond to the explosive lawsuit as the legal battle heats up.
