Pop sensation Chappell Roan has been accused of allegedly siccing her security guard on the daughter of Jude Law after the child bumped into the ‘Hot To Go’ singer at a hotel in Sao Paulo.

The singer, born Kayleigh Rose Amstutz, is in the city to perform at the Brazilian version of the Lollapalooza music festival.

The criticism came in a post made on Instagram by former Chelsea and Arsenal soccer star Jorginho, who is married to Catherine Harding – Law’s ex and the child’s mother.

The former Champions League winner, who now plays for Brazilian giants Flamengo, publicly blasted the 28-year-old ‘Pink Pony Club’ songstress in the post over her security guard’s actions toward the child – who was not named, but appears to be Ada Law.

‘I went through a very upsetting situation with my family earlier today,’ the 34-year-old began in a lengthy statement.

‘My wife (@catcavelli) is in Sao 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.’

Do YOU think the security guard overreacted in this situation?

He continued: ‘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.

‘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 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.’

Jorginho concluded: ‘@chappellroan WITHOUT YOUR FANS, YOU WOULD BE NOTHING. AND TO THE FANS, SHE DOES NOT DESERVE YOUR AFFECTION.’

Roan, 28, has previously called out fans for ‘creepy’ behavior online and in public

Jorginho’s post quickly went viral, and internet users did not hesitate to offer their input on the contentious altercation.

The story even caught the attention of Rio Mayor Eduardo Cavaliere, who banned Roan from performing in the city.

‘I mean that as long as I’m in charge of our city – this young lady @ChappelRoan will never perform at Todo Mundo no Rio! I doubt that Shakira would do that! By the way, @FrelloJorginho your little one is already the guest of honor from the organization in May!’ Cavaliere wrote in a translated post from Portuguese.

Roan has had an occasionally contentious relationship with her fans, with the artist previously calling out behavior that she considered ‘creepy’ and ‘invasive’ in previous social media posts.

In August 2024, around the time of her sudden rise in popularity, Roan posted a video to TikTok where she said, ‘I don’t care that abuse and harassment, stalking, whatever, is a normal thing to do to people who are famous or a little famous.

‘It’s weird how people think that you know a person because you see them online and you listen to the art they make … I’m allowed to say no to creepy behavior, okay?’

She followed that up with a lengthy post to Instagram, saying, ‘I want to be an artist for a very long time. I’ve been in too many nonconsensual physical and social interactions and I just need to lay it out and remind you, women don’t owe you s**t.’

Roan continued: ‘When I’m on stage, when I’m performing, when I’m in drag, when I’m at a work event, when I’m doing press…I am at work. Any other circumstance, I am not in work mode. I am clocked out.’

She added, ‘If you’re still asking, “Well, if you didn’t want this to happen, then why did you choose a career where you knew you wouldn’t be comfortable with the outcome of success?” – understand this: I embrace the success of the project, the love I feel, and the gratitude I have. What I do not accept are creepy people, being touched, and being followed.’

Jorginho, who was born in Brazil but represents Italy at the national team level, enjoyed a lengthy career in European football, winning the 2021 UEFA Champions League and the 2019 Europa League with Chelsea. He also played with Arsenal and Napoli among other clubs.

In 2023, Jorginho got down on one knee for Harding, and the two married last year. They are pictured above during their engagement

Jorginho and Harding married last year after four years of dating. In 2023, the departing Arsenal footballer got down on one knee for the singer, surrounded by red roses and candles, while being serenaded by a violinist.

The pair also starred together on fly-on-the-wall series Married To The Game, which premiered in February 2024, and follows the partners of some of the best Premier League footballers, shedding light on their lives beyond the pitch.

Catherine has previously spoken about the challenges of having a blended family, admitting it is difficult when different households have different rules for their children.

Catherine was 23 when she dated Jude, then 41, who was filming on location in the Czech Republic as he grew close to the aspiring musician.

He and his now wife Phillipa Coan also have two children – born in 2020 an 2023 – whose identities have not been made public.
