Q'Orianka Kilcher, 32, is accused of working on 'Yellowstone' during the time that she told a doctor she was too injured to work.
“Yellowstone” actress Q’Orianka Kilcher has been charged with two felony counts of workers’ compensation fraud, California officials announced Monday.
She self-surrendered and was arraigned in May, California Department of Insurance officials said. She pleaded not guilty to the charges last month, according to Los Angeles County Superior Court records. Kilcher saw a doctor “a few times that year” but allegedly stopped attending treatment and “did not respond to the insurance company handling her claim on behalf of her employer,” according to the Department of Insurance.In October 2019, Kilcher contacted the insurance company and requested treatment, telling the doctor “that she had been offered work since her injury occurred but had been unable to accept it” due to the severity of her neck pain, the department said.
“After reviewing wage information from her employer, the investigation found Kilcher had worked as an actress on the television show ‘Yellowstone’ from July 2019 to October 2019, despite her statements to the doctor that she had been unable to work for a year,” the department said.
