Okay, so like, Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan just had to totally drag themselves back to Romania after spending weeks in the U.S., and let’s be real, they were not happy about it. They had this travel ban lifted, which meant they could jet around, but now they gotta check in with Romanian authorities or—get this—they could be arrested again. Major yikes.
So like, the big drama? They’re still facing serious charges in Romania, like human trafficking, forming an organized crime ring, and even sexual exploitation of women. And, OMG, Andrew’s also facing a rape charge. They’re both like, “We’re totally innocent, this is all a setup,” but the Romanian courts are still on their case.
And get this—Florida’s Attorney General is also poking around, and there’s a lawsuit against them in the U.K. too. Like, they seriously cannot catch a break (or maybe they just shouldn’t have done shady things?). But Andrew keeps saying it’s all, like, one big conspiracy against him, which is sooo on brand.
So, like, if you don’t know, Andrew Tate is a self-described misogynist (his words, not mine!) who built his brand on being, like, the guy who teaches young men how to be “alpha.” 🚩🚩🚩 He’s been banned from pretty much every social media platform at some point for his, um, horrific takes on women, dating, and masculinity. Think, like, “women belong to men” levels of cringe. And yet, he still has this huge fanbase of dudes who think he’s, like, some kind of genius.
Before all this, he was a kickboxer (meh) and then went all in on, like, the “manosphere” movement, which is basically this whole online world where guys complain about feminism and act like being nice to women is some huge burden. He made millions selling online courses on “getting rich” and “escaping the matrix” (lol, okay, babe), but his big break came when his fans started flooding TikTok with clips of him yelling about how men should be, like, super rich, super aggressive, and totally in control of women. So yeah, shocking that he ended up in legal trouble, right?
But wait, there’s more! The Romanian courts actually messed up some legal paperwork (like, how embarrassing?), so their trial got delayed. It’s all still in process, and the Tates are acting like they’re so sure they’ll clear their names. But, like, we’ll see.
XOXO,
