My daughter, like any child, recognized her, got excited, and just wanted to make sure it really was her." "She went back to sit with her mum. She didn't say anything, didn't ask for anything."

Frello criticized Roan, saying the response was "disproportionate" and unnecessary. He emphasized that his daughter had not crossed any boundaries and was simply excited to see an artist she liked. He wrote, "Without your fans, you would be nobody, and to the fans, she does not deserve your affection." His wife, Catherine Harding, also backed the claims by sharing posts about the incident. He and Harding have reportedly been married since 2025.

However, the actor has not publicly commented on the incident yet. Meanwhile, Roan has not directly addressed the allegations either. Interestingly, during her performance at Lollapalooza Brasil, she publicly thanked her security team amid the controversy.
