At this point, the actress claims the company is using an 'unforeseeable circumstances' clause in the contract to try and not pay the specific amount owed, claiming the COVID-19 pandemic impacted the company. "It's nothing more than a bad-faith attempt to exploit the COVID-19 pandemic to evade their clear contractual obligations," the lawsuit states. Adding, "they have continued to produce and sell their products, and knowingly and intentionally use Ms. Duff's name, likeness and endorsement-related services."

"In fact, various press reports indicate that Naturalena experienced an increase in demand for its products during the COVID-19 pandemic," the documents say.
