Chappell Roan has spoken out after making Jude Law’s daughter cry. On Saturday, Premier League ace Jorginho said the singer made his daughter, Ada, extremely upset after seeing her at their hotel. Ada is the daughter of actor Jude Law and singer Cat Cavelli.
He claimed that young Ada saw Chappell at their hotel and walked past the star and smiled to work out if it was actually her. But moments after, a security guard, who claimed to work with Chappell, spoke to Cat and Ada in “an extremely aggressive manner,” before Chappell’s performance at Lollapalooza in Sao Paulo, Brazil
Now, the Femininomenon hitmaker has taken to social media to share her side of the story. “I’m just going to tell my half of the story of what happened today with a mother and child who were involved with a security guard who is not my personal security,” Chappell said on Instagram.
She added: “I didn’t even see, I didn’t even see a woman and a child like… No one came up to me, no one bothered me like I was just sitting at breakfast in my hotel. I think these people were staying at the hotel as well.
“So, the fact that, like a security guard, who was – I did not ask the security guard to go up and talk to this mother and child, I did not. They did not come up to me. They weren’t doing anything; it’s unfair for security to just assume someone doesn’t have good intentions when they have no reason to believe, because there’s no action even taken.
Lying in bed, Chappell continued: “I do not hate people who are fans of my music. I do not hate children; that is crazy. I’m sorry to the mother and child that someone was assuming something, that you would do something, and that… if you felt uncomfortable, that makes me really sad. You did not deserve that.”
Ada was attending Roan’s performance with her mother, Irish singer Cat, and her step-father, Jorginho, saying she was very excited to see her favourite musician perform. Ada had already made a poster ahead of the festival to take with her. In a scathing Instagram post, the former Chelsea and Arsenal midfielder said: “I went through a very upsetting situation with my family earlier today. My wife (@catcavelli) is in São Paulo for @lollapaloozabr. 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. @chappellroan.
“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, recognised her, got excited, and just wanted to make sure it was really her.
“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. What happened next was completely disproportionate. A large security guard came over to their table while they were still having breakfast 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 [security] even said he would file a complaint against them with the hotel, while my 11-year-old daughter was sitting there in tears. My daughter was extremely shaken and cried a lot.
“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. 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. @chappellroan WITHOUT YOUR FANS, YOU WOULD BE NOTHING. AND TO THE FANS, SHE DOES NOT DESERVE YOUR AFFECTION.”
