Soccer star Jorginho has publicly called out Chappell Roan for allegedly accusing his 11-year-old stepdaughter of harassment.
“I went through a very upsetting situation with my family earlier today. My wife [Cat Cavelli] is in São Paulo for Lollapalooza Brasil,” Jorginho, 34, wrote via Instagram on Saturday, March 21. “This morning, my daughter woke up incredibly excited. She even made a sign because she was so happy to see an artist she really admires, or used to admire.”
Jorginho (real name Jorge Luiz Frello Filho) did not directly name the child but seemingly was referring to Ada Law, Cavelli’s daughter from a previous relationship with Jude Law. Jorginho and Cavelli have been in a relationship since 2019.
The athlete claimed that Cavelli and Ada had an unexpected run-in with one of Roan’s security guards in São Paulo when they were dining at the same hotel. (Roan, 28, is currently in Brazil to headline Saturday night’s Lollapalooza Brasil.)
“By coincidence, they’re staying at the same hotel as this artist. During breakfast, the artist walked past their table. My daughter, like any child, recognized her, got excited, and just wanted to make sure it was really her,” Jorginho wrote. “And the worst part is she didn’t even approach her. She simply walked past the singer’s table, looked to confirm it was her, smiled, and went back to sit with her mum. She didn’t say anything, didn’t ask for anything.”
According to Jorginho, a “large security guard” then allegedly approached Cavelli and Ada’s table and “began speaking in an extremely aggressive manner to both my wife and my daughter, saying that she shouldn’t allow my daughter to ‘disrespect’ or ‘harass’ other people.”
“Honestly, I don’t know at what point simply walking past a table and looking to see if someone is there can be considered harassment,” he added.
The security guard allegedly threatened to “file a complaint against them with the hotel” while the young girl “was sitting there in tears.”
“My daughter was extremely shaken and cried a lot,” Jorginho alleged.
Jorginho mentioned his own history of fan interactions while suggesting that the 11-year-old did not breach any “boundaries.”
“I’ve lived with football, public exposure, and well-known people for many years, and I understand very well what respect and boundaries are. What happened there was not that. It was just a child admiring someone,” he claimed. “It’s sad to see this kind of treatment coming from those who should understand the importance of fans. At the end of the day, they are the ones who build all of this. I sincerely hope this serves as a moment of reflection. No one should have to go through this, especially not a child.”
Jorginho tagged the Instagram Story with a message to Roan’s fans, writing. “WITHOUT YOUR FANS, YOU WOULD BE NOTHING. AND TO THE FANS, SHE DOES NOT DESERVE YOUR AFFECTION.”
Us Weekly has reached out to representatives for Roan for comment.
The “Pink Pony Club” singer has been vocal about valuing her privacy in public spaces. In March, she clashed with photographers and autograph seekers in Paris when they allegedly blocked her path as she was going to dinner.
“To be disregarded as a human, this is what it’s like,” she could be heard saying. “I’m just trying to go to dinner and I’ve asked these people several times to get away from me … They’re hiding their faces because they’re ashamed. These are all the people that are disregarding all of my boundaries.”
Roan also argued with the paparazzi on the red carpet at the MTV Video Music Awards in September 2024, telling one photographer to “shut the f*** up” when he complained about her posing.
