Hollywood talent agent Jessica Steindorff was named last night as another driver in the four-car fatal crash that involved Bruce Jenner.
According to the New York Daily News, Steindorff, 29, was driving with a suspended license – but she was not the cause of the crash.
The agent, who has Victoria Secrets model Alessandro Ambrosio (pictured above right with Steindorff) as a client, was driving a 2010 Toyota Prius that was the first car to be rear-ended in the accident on Saturday on the Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu.
