MrBeast Fired Executive After Maternity Leave, Facing Federal Lawsuit

Lorrayne Mavromatis, an executive at MrBeast's media company, was fired three weeks after returning from maternity leave. A federal lawsuit filed in April 2026 alleges the company lacked a formal maternity policy, failed to inform her of her rights under the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), and pressured her to work while on leave. She was the company's first employee to request maternity benefits.
