A security guard at the centre of an incident involving singer Chappell Roan and Jude Law's daughter has broken his silence, and taken "full responsibility for the interactions".
Pascal Duvier took to Instagram to address speculation surrounding an alleged incident on March 21st at a hotel in Sao Paulo, Brazil, which resulted in pop star Chappell hitting the headlines this week.
It came after professional footballer Jorginho claimed his 11-year-old stepdaughter Ada - whose dad is Jude - was reduced to tears after an "aggressive and intimidating" security guard allegedly accused the youngster of "harassing" Roan by sneaking a peak at her idol over breakfast.
The Pink Pony Club hitmaker has since released a video denying the bodyguard was working on her instruction, and now Duvier has insisted he was at the hotel "on behalf of another individual".
He wrote on Instagram: "I do not normally address online rumors, but the accusations currently circulating are false and constitute defamation.
"I take full responsibility for the interactions on March 21st. I was at the hotel on behalf of another individual, and I was not part of the personal security team of Chappell Roan.
"The actions I took were not on behalf of Chappell Roan, her personal security team, her management, or any other individuals. (sic)"
Regarding the alleged incident, Duvier didn't go into detail, but admitted he had to "make a judgement call" based on what he had witnessed and information he had received, but he insisted the "outcome of the encounter is regretful".
He added: "I made a judgment call based on information we obtained from the hotel, events I had witnessed in the days prior and the heightened overall security risk of our location.
"My sole interaction with the mother was calm and with good intentions, and the outcome of the encounter is regretful."
