Victoria Villarroel is looking back at working for Kylie Jenner.

“Obviously me and Kylie had a working relationship, but you can’t not get so close with a person you see every single day,” Victoria said of her dynamic with Kylie. “You know everything about them, you’re with them at all times — good or bad.”
Victoria said that she and Kylie looked at each other when it “got to that point,” and they both realized that their working relationship needed to end.
“I remember being so nervous and thinking, ‘Am I making the right decision? What if I’m leaving the best job I could ever have?’” Victoria recalled, noting that people “in [her] ear” telling her not to leave the job that “people would die for.”
Ultimately, when she talked to Kylie about quitting, the Kylie Cosmetics boss told Victoria that she would continue to supporting her in any future endeavors.
“She the most understanding person, she was like, ‘Oh my God, Vic, I want you to thrive and I’m going to be here supporting you and I love you so much,’” Victoria recalled Kylie telling her.
After quitting her job as Kylie‘s assistant in January 2020, the two have remained super close friends.
