Soccer star Jorginho has issued a statement clarifying the circumstances surrounding an incident involving his eleven-year-old daughter and a security guard he believed was employed by singer Chappell Roan. The player recently disclosed that he has received additional information since his initial remarks, leading him to reconsider the situation and deem it resolved.

In a detailed Instagram post published on April 13, Jorginho explained that he felt compelled to offer an update on events from the Lollapalooza Brazil festival weekend, following considerable public discourse. Initially, he had expressed concerns about his daughter Ada being approached by a security guard in what he described as an intimidating manner. His statements following the incident, made on March 21, had seen him call out both Roan and the guard, insisting that the singer did not merit the support she received from her fans.
Reflecting on his earlier comments, the 34-year-old admitted they were made in the heat of the moment, driven by his instinct to protect his family. “My priority is, and always will be, protecting my family,” he stated, emphasising the strong emotional response any parent might have in a similar situation.
Jorginho acknowledged that he acted on information available to him at the time and noted that he later came across new insights that altered his understanding of the events. He also referenced a video posted by Roan, in which she claimed to have had no knowledge of the encounter. The singer reportedly reached out privately to Jorginho’s wife, Catherine Harding, to clarify the matter.
The Italian midfielder conveyed that Roan had been sympathetic to the ordeal while also revealing that the security guard involved, Pascal Duvier, had confirmed that he was not representing the singer during the incident. “While we still do not know what prompted him to approach them, and do not believe an 11-year-old at breakfast could reasonably be seen as any kind of security threat, it is now clear that he was not acting on behalf of Chappell,” he remarked.
Ultimately, Jorginho deemed the incident a misunderstanding and expressed relief at being able to set the record straight. He acknowledged the negative repercussions the situation had on Roan, his partner, their daughter, and his family. “I regret the impact this situation has had,” he said, underlining his commitment to family while also recognising when perspectives shift.
In his closing remarks, Jorginho urged his followers to refrain from engaging in hate speech or online attacks stemming from the situation. He called for empathy and respect, stressing that such values should be upheld, particularly during sensitive moments.
Representatives for Roan, whose real name is Kayleigh Rose Amstutz, corroborated Jorginho’s revised narrative. A spokesperson confirmed the singer’s commitment to fan safety and stated she had no prior knowledge of the interaction involving Jorginho’s family.
Following the public discourse, the security guard involved reiterated his actions were not conducted on behalf of Roan, describing his approach as well-intentioned and regrettable. Duvier also explained that his actions stemmed from prior experiences at the hotel which had heightened security concerns.
In summary, the incident has notably highlighted the complexities involved when emotions run high in public settings, especially concerning the protection of loved ones. Jorginho’s willingness to revisit the situation serves as a reminder of the responsibility public figures hold in managing their narratives and how miscommunication can often lead to misunderstandings.
