"Chappell Roan made a public statement, reached out private to Catherine, and our teams also spoke directly," said Jorginho. "It became clear that she had no knowledge of what took place at breakfast and had not asked anyone to approach them. She was understanding and sympathetic to what happened to our child.

"While we still do not know what prompted him to approach them, and do not believe an 11-year-old could reasonably be seen as any kind of security threat, it is now clear he was not acting on behalf of Chappell. "It was, ultimately, a misunderstanding in that respect, and I am glad to set the record straight. It is important to me that this is clarified fairly and accurately.

I regret the impact that this situation has had on Chappell Roan, Catherine, Ada and our family. "I will always stand up for my family. But I also know how to recognise when things were not quite what they seemed at first.

" The incident drew significant media attention both in Brazil, where Rio de Janeiro's mayor Eduardo Cavaliere wrote that he intended to ban Roan from performing in his city, and on social media. Jorginho went on to state that he does not "support or encourage hate speech or online attacks from any side".
