Howard Stern Ex-Assistant Claims Hostile Work Environment, Fraudulent NDAs: Suit

Kuhn says the Sterns created a hostile work environment and used a fabricated NDA to silence her after her firing.

  • On Sunday, Leslie Kuhn sued SiriusXM host Howard Stern and his wife, Beth Stern, alleging they fostered a "hostile work environment" during her employment as their executive assistant.
  • Working at the couple's 20,000-square-foot Southampton mansion, Kuhn claims she faced "immense pressures on the household" from their animal rescue operations and disorganized business practices.
  • Despite a promised $265,000 salary and $80,000 bonus, Kuhn was fired in February; attorneys at Pryor Cashman, representing production company One Twelve, presented an NDA she claims was "fabricated."
  • Seeking to void the document, the lawsuit filed in Manhattan state Supreme Court aims to allow Kuhn to speak freely about her employment and termination.
  • Howard Stern, who recently signed a three-year contract extension with SiriusXM, has not responded to the allegations, which follow his long-standing work with North Shore Animal League America.
