Overview
- Chloe Hewitt alleges that at a June 4 2022 Herbalife-organized farewell party in Mauritius she was thrown into a resort pool by intoxicated colleagues and cut her foot on broken glass.
- She claims the accident caused nerve damage requiring two operations and ongoing physiotherapy, leaving her with lasting pain, stiffness, and loss of sensation.
- Hewitt is seeking more than £250,000 in damages from Uxbridge-based Herbalife Europe for failing to ensure adequate safety measures and security at the event.
- Herbalife Europe denies responsibility, arguing the incident occurred after the official event ended during an independent after-party when Hewitt was off duty.
- The High Court action is ongoing and is expected to proceed to a full trial later in 2025.
