Late 'Euphoria' Star Angus Cloud's Mom Slams His Ex Assistant's Lawsuit As 'Extortion'

Late Angus Cloud's mother, Lisa Cloud, is pushing back against a lawsuit filed by his alleged former assistant, calling it an act of extortion.

This comes after a string of claims on Angus' estate following his untimely death in July 2023, with individuals and entities seeking a piece of his reported fortune. 

Angus Cloud's former personal assistant alleged that he failed to pay him for nearly two years, resulting in a $300,000 debt. Now, the late actor's mother is firmly defending against the most recent claim, dismissing it as "Frivolous."

Jonathan Kim alleges that Angus "promised to compensate" him $5,000 per month but failed to pay him for nearly two years of service. In legal documents, Lisa, who was appointed administrator of Angus' estate after his tragic death at age 25 in July 2023, slammed the lawsuit as "frivolous." 

She insisted that "no contract ever existed" between her son and Jonathan, demanding that the case be dismissed entirely. Her lawyer argued:

"Defendant alleges that any action or inaction by Defendant with respect to the allegations contained in the Complaint was lawful, justified and/or privileged." 

In documents obtained by In Touch, they also noted that Jonathan had previously tried and failed to recover these funds in probate court before filing the civil suit.

According to Lisa's legal team, Jonathan's attempt to claim unpaid wages is nothing more than an effort to leverage the court process for personal gain, with no legitimate grounds for recovery.

Jonathan, who claims to have served as Angus' personalassistant, filed a lawsuit against the late actor's estate, alleging breach of contract. The disgruntled ex-employee's lawsuit states that he was responsible for a range of duties. 

These included "performing administrative tasks, coordinating schedules, arranging travel, running errands, and providing personal support." The legal filing asserted that Angus agreed to pay Jonathan $5,000 per month for his services but failed to follow through on the payments. 

As a result of what he describes as an oral contract breach, Jonathan is seeking $115,000 in damages, citing the financial loss he incurred due to the unpaid wages. 

Lisa has not taken a break Since the death of her son, dealing with mounting creditor claims after taking control of his estate. 

In court documents obtained by The Blast, a former assistant alleged that the late star failed to pay him for nearly two years, resulting in unpaid wages and commissions totaling $310,000.

The assistant claims he is owed a 10% commission—approximately $195,000—from several of Angus' lucrative brand deals, including partnerships with Ralph Lauren, Fila, Reebok, Marc Jacobs, Ray-Ban, and more.

In their court filing, the former employee provided evidence of payments, including sums of $6,500 from these deals.

Since his passing last year, Angus' estate has been facing a growing number of financial claims. Following a lawsuit from his former personal assistant, his ex-business manager, Diomi Cordero, also stepped forward, alleging the actor failed to pay him $94,770 in commissions. 

According to The Blast, Diomi claims that hewas promised a 10% commission on Angus' Hollywood earnings, but the late 25-year-old breached their agreement in early 2022, stopping payments without explanation.

These allegations come on the heels of additional claims, including a lawsuit from JP Morgan Chase for $9,056.11 and a suit from Verizon Wireless seeking $4,282.70 in unpaid debt. 

In the wake of mounting claims against Angus' estate, his mother took steps to clarify her late son's financial standing, emphasizing accountability and transparency. While he was not known for a real estate portfolio, he reportedly had ample cash reserves. 

The Blast reported that Angus allegedly left behind a total of $102,238.94 across various accounts: $14,864.86 at City National Bank, $9,450.10 in a Chase Bank savings account, and $77,923.98 in investments.

Additionally, he owned 100% of his company, Action Packed! Inc., though his mother listed the value of his residuals from acting and endorsements as zero. 

Overall, Lisa estimated her son's estate to be worth $892,238.94. As the legal battles unfold, Angus Cloud's estate remains under intense scrutiny.
