Kylie Jenner's former personal assistant has spoken about the moment she realised she needed to quit the job.

Victoria Villarroel recalled the moment during an episode of the podcast she shares with Stassie Karanikolaou, Better Half.

The moment came after five years of working together, when the pair were sitting in Jenner's kitchen and she asked Villarroel to grab her laptop from the upstairs bedroom.

Admitting she didn't really want to go and get the laptop, Villarroel realised then that perhaps it was time to move on.

“I remember like it was yesterday — this was year five," she said.

“We were in the kitchen and [Jenner] was like, ‘Vic, I need my laptop, it’s upstairs,’ and I was like, ‘Oof, who’s gonna get that?'"

Villarroel explained that her initial reaction was that she didn't want to go and retrieve the laptop for Jenner, explaining that they had become 'so close' after spending every day together.

“I said something crazy like, ‘Oof, that seems far, I don’t want to go get your laptop," she added.

“Obviously me and Kylie had a working relationship, but you can’t not get so close with a person you see every single day.

“You know everything about them, you’re with them at all times — good or bad.”

Villarroel explained that she was nervous giving up the job, explaining she wasn't sure if she was making the right decision.

Meanwhile, people around her warned her not to quit the role for fear of regretting it at a later date.

However, five years on from resigning as Jenner's PA and she explained the youngest Kardashian was the 'most understanding person', promising to support her no matter what as well as any future projects she took on.

“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?'” She said.

“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.'”

The pair still remain close, meanwhile an insider told US Weekly at the time of her leaving the role: “Kylie and Victoria are still friends and close.

“Kylie doesn’t have any bad feelings about Victoria going off to do her own thing and is supportive.”
