After weeks of public statements, misunderstandings and backlash, the Brazilian soccer star who originally accused Chappell Roan of siccing her security on his stepdaughter is setting the record straight.
In a new statement posted to his Instagram Story this week, Jorginho shared one final update regarding an incident involving a security guard and the athlete’s stepdaughter and wife at a hotel restaurant in Brazil last month. In the new post, Jorginho cleared Roan of any wrongdoing in the situation that went down during Lollapalooza Brazil.
“I made my initial statement in the heat of the moment, after hearing that my child and wife had been approached by an adult male security guard in an intimidating way,” Jorginho writes after saying that he felt it was important to clarify the situation now that he had all the required information. “At the time, we acted on the information that was available to us.”
The soccer player originally alleged that Roan‘s security guard approached his 11-year-old and her mother at a hotel restaurant where the pop star was also eating. In a complaint on Instagram, Jorginho said that his daughter spotted Roan at the restaurant and walked by her table to confirm if she really saw the singer. After his daughter returned to their family’s table, a security guard approached them chiding the mother and child for “harassing” and “disrespecting” others. Jorginho said the situation left his daughter “extremely shaken.”
The backlash against Roan was immediate. People took to the Internet to accuse the singer of hating her fans, pointing to past incidents where Roan asked to be left alone by paparazzi as proof. Rio de Janeiro Mayor Eduardo Cavaliere wrote in a post on X that while he remains in office, the singer was banned from performing at Todo Mundo no Rio, the annual Copacabana Beach concert where Madonna and Lady Gaga drew live audiences in the millions.
Roan took to her own Instagram in the aftermath of the incident sharing that the she had nothing to do with the security guard that approached Jorginho’s family.
“I didn’t even see a woman and a child. Like, I did not. No one came up to me. No one bothered me,” Roan said, after saying that despite popular belief, the guard was not her personal security. “I did not ask the security guard to go up to talk to this mother and child.”
The security guard at the center of the controversy, Pascal Duvier, eventually spoke up in his own public statement. Duvier confirmed Roan’s statement that he was not a part of her security detail and he took “full responsibility” for what happened. Duvier shared that he was at the hotel as a member of a different pop star’s security and that Chappell and her team had nothing to do with his actions. Billboard independently confirmed Daily Mail reports that Duvier was acting as a member of Sabrina Carpenter’s security detail as the “Espresso” singer was also in town to perform at Lollapalooza.
Since the statements from the star and Duvier, Jorginho has “become aware of new information that has changed [his understanding] of parts of what happened,” according to his latest Instagram statement. He shared that on top of making her public statement, Roan reached out privately to his wife and that their teams spoke with one another.
“It became clear that she had no knowledge of what took place at breakfast and had not asked anyone to approach them,” Jorginho stated, once and for all clearing Roan’s name. “She was understanding and sympathetic to what had happened with our child.”
The athlete states that he is still unsure why Duvier approached his family, but knows that it had nothing to do with Roan. He continued his statement by expressing his regrets about how the situation impacted Roan as well as his family, calling it all a “misunderstanding.”
Jorginho concluded by thanking people for their support throughout the situation, denouncing any attacks made toward anyone involved in it and ending this saga once and for all.
“As far as I am concerned, this matter is closed,” he wrote.
