Catherine Harding has found herself at the center of mounting backlash, with fans flooding her Instagram page and demanding she take responsibility for the narrative that initially put Chappell Roan under fire.

The reaction was swift and direct. Fans have now begun commenting under Harding’s last Instagram post, a video in which she narrated what happened between her daughter, Ada, and a man she and Jorginho initially thought was Roan’s security guard.

One fan wrote, “The security guard came forward and said she didn’t do anything and you’re out here liking hate comments.”

Another added, “Are you and your husband going to apologize now that the security guard confirmed she had NOTHING to do with what happened?”

Others pushed even harder for accountability. A third commenter stated, “Looking forward to you and your husband’s PUBLIC apology now the bodyguard in question has confirmed he had nothing to do with Chappell.”

Another questioned the silence, writing, “Y’all were quick to post the first time, where’s the new statement now it’s been fully proven this entire situation is a crock of sh-t?”

Some fans also defended Roan’s reputation, pointing to her history with supporters. One user wrote, “Someone met chappell at the same hotel and said she was very nice, she met so many fans in LATAM and all said she was nice. Why would she ok her last day send a guard when she didn’t even see you guys???? The guard most likely saw your daughter looking and overstep but this is not on her she literally has no reason to do so.”

Soccer star Jorginho has not been spared from the backlash either. Fans took to his social media posts, including one celebrating a milestone with his club, Flamengo, to question why he has not addressed the situation following new revelations.

One person wrote, “Stop the hate. The guard was never Chappell’s, and the info was vague. She’s always been kind to her fans. Stop spreading false stories.”

Another comment was more pointed, asking, “Where’s your apology to Chappell? She should sue you. The security guard came out publicly and denied that the situation happened the way it did, and on top of that, he confirmed he’s wasn’t even part of Chappell Roan’s team. Where’s your apology?”

A third fan urged restraint moving forward, writing, “You might want to read @pascalduvier’s latest post…. maybe we shouldn’t point fingers so publicly until we have all the information.”

The shift in tone highlights how quickly public opinion has changed.

While many initially sympathized with his account, the emergence of new details has left fans questioning whether the original claims were premature.

The Genesis Of The Chappell Roan Controversy

The controversy began with Jorginho’s emotional account of an incident involving his wife, Catherine Harding, and their 11-year-old daughter, Ada, during a stay at a hotel in São Paulo.

According to him, Ada was excited to see Chappell Roan, “an artist she really admires,” and simply wanted to confirm it was her. He even shared a photo of the young girl holding a handmade sign expressing her admiration.

He explained that Ada walked past the singer’s table, smiled, and returned without interacting. “She didn’t say anything, didn’t ask for anything,” he wrote, emphasizing that her actions were harmless.

However, he claimed the situation escalated when a man believed to be a security guard approached them in what he described as an “aggressive” manner.

He went on to say the reaction was “completely disproportionate,” questioning how a brief glance could be interpreted as harassment. He also shared that the experience left Ada “extremely shaken.”

Harding later echoed this account, describing the man’s behavior as intimidating and suggesting he criticized her parenting, reinforcing the initial narrative that drew widespread sympathy.

As criticism grew, Chappell Roan addressed the situation directly, distancing herself from the incident and clarifying that she had no involvement.

She stated, “No one bothered me. Like, I was just sitting at my breakfast in my hotel,” explaining that she was unaware of any interaction. She also made it clear she did not instruct anyone to approach Harding or her daughter, stressing that it was unfair for assumptions to be made without cause.

Roan further expressed empathy, apologizing to the mother and child for any discomfort while making it clear they did not deserve the experience. In essence, she maintained that while the situation was unfortunate, it was not something she orchestrated.

Her representative supported this, reiterating that she neither saw the interaction nor directed any security personnel.

Harding, however, responded with her own video, maintaining her position.

She said, “I know that Chappell has responded, saying that ‘It wasn’t her security and that she didn’t do it’ well, 100% this wasn’t a security guard of the hotel that’s what I can say, he looks after artists.”

She went on to explain that while she could not confirm whether the individual was Roan’s personal guard, he appeared to be with her, raising questions about responsibility.

Harding also argued that public figures have a duty regarding those around them, suggesting that even indirect actions can reflect on them.

The turning point came when the security guard, later identified as Pascal Duvier, publicly addressed the situation and accepted responsibility.

“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,” he said, confirming Roan’s earlier claims.

He clarified that his actions were not carried out on behalf of Roan or her team and explained that he approached Harding and her daughter based on information provided by the hotel regarding heightened security concerns.

Duvier maintained that his intentions were calm and well-meaning, though he acknowledged that the outcome was regrettable. He essentially suggested that his decision was influenced by the environment and circumstances at the time.

Further reports revealed that Duvier was actually working for another pop star, Sabrina Carpenter, at the time of the incident.

This revelation significantly shifted public perception, reinforcing the argument that Roan had been wrongly implicated.

With this new clarity, the spotlight has firmly returned to Harding and Jorginho. As calls for accountability continue to grow, many are now waiting to see whether the couple will respond with the apology fans are demanding.
