LeBron James’ wife, Savannah, claims Hermès worker was fired for snubbing her, refusing pre-booked appointment

LeBron James’ wife, Savannah James, alleged that a Hermès employee was fired after failing to honor her pre-booked appointment.

During Thursday’s episode of the “Question Everything” podcast, the businesswoman and her friend April McDaniel recalled visiting the luxury fashion house’s shop in Italy when the alleged incident occurred.

“One time we went to Milan [and] they treated us like s–t,” McDaniel shared.

“And fired the lady,” she added, McDaniel said, as Savannah backed up the claim.

“We had an appointment,” Savannah, 39, chimed in. “And they tried to act like it was …”

“I said, ‘Baby, you caught the wrong one today,’” McDaniel interjected, explaining that Savannah is “very nice” while she is not.

“You want some smoke? You done caught one. I am crazy like that,” McDaniel continued.

The duo explained that the Hermès workers “closed down that whole motherf–king store” as they were escorted into a private room with champagne, caviar and macarons.

“I said, ‘How many bags you got? Ten?’” McDaniel said.

“They brought out everything,” Savannah, whose NBA star husband has an estimated net worth of approximately $1.4 billion, corroborated.

“I said I’ll take bathing suits, I’m buying silverware,” McDaniel quipped. “I was living my best life.”

In a separate incident, McDaniel explained she also pushed for a male Chanel employee to be fired after he told Savannah that she couldn’t touch a purse while they were visiting the store’s Paris location.

“I’m calling the boss,” she recalled. “We’re closing the store down … I’m heated, I’m ruining the whole situation.”

Savannah and McDaniel co-founded Signed, a holding company that focuses on women-owned businesses and media ventures.

They’re also the co-hosts of the “Everybody’s Crazy” podcast.
