Christel Khalil has settled a lawsuit with her talent agency, The Wrap reported Monday.
"The Parties are pleased to confirm that they have resolved all of their claims against each other, they wish each other success in their future endeavors, and the action has been dismissed with prejudice," attorneys for Khalil told TheWrap.
Details of the settlement were not revealed. However, a source shared that Khalil left her representation before the suit was filed and that there may be lingering hard feelings.
"Both sides are a combination of happy and not happy by the nature of the settlement," the source said.
In August, Khalil sued filed suit. Khalil claimed that her agents at Mavrick Artists Agency did not honor their commitment to represent her. She stated in her complaint that her agents failed to sent her on sparse auditions during pilot season last year. Khalil said that she was embarrassed when the agents sent her to audition at Y&R where she has played Lily Winters Ashby for many years and has been nominated four times for an Emmy. She won the statue for Younger Lead Actress in 2010.
Khalil was described as "collectively embarrassed, if not mortified" by the decision to have her audition at Y&R. The insult, in addition to the alleged negligence, has led Khalil to argue breach of contract.
The 25-year-old actress has not addressed the lawsuit with a statement, but a source told Daytime Confidential that the legal move has upset some people. Casting director Judy Blye Wilson is rumored to be angry that her name would be implicated in the confusion of Khalil auditioning at the CBS soap opera where she is employed.
"The agency may not know their client is on The Young and the Restless, but do people really think Judy doesn't know who is on her own show?" a source said. "She [Wilson] never took a meeting with them [Mavrick Artists Agency] about Christel."
