Swedish House Mafia member Steve Angello is being sued by his former nanny. She claims the artist tricked her into moving to Sweden and treated her like a slave. The woman, originally from LA, relocated to Sweden for $50,000 a year to look after the family.
She claims she was promised a schedule and workload that would remain the same after the move, but that when she got there she was working 24 hours a day for 3 weeks and living in a hotel room with Steve’s 2 daughters. According to her, after she spoke up, she was fired. Now she’s suing for lying about job duties, failure to pay overtime, and wrongful termination.
In response, Steve Angello reported that the reason the nanny was actually fired is that she was drinking on the job. Apparently, while Steve was on tour his mother spotted the nanny at a bar with his 4 and 6-year-old daughters. Steve had given the nanny an expense credit card, which showed visits to that bar 3 days in a row. In her defense, the nanny says it was a restaurant and she only ordered 1 beer each time.
