Social media influencers Andrew Tate and Tristan Tate are arrested in Miami, Florida, and officials say the United Kingdom is seeking their extradition. Multiple outlets report they are accused in the UK of rape and sex trafficking, with charges tied to multiple alleged victims. In court and documents unsealed after their arrest, prosecutors describe allegations involving three victims, including claims that one woman accused Tristan Tate of rape and assault during a long-term relationship beginning in 2012, and that two other women accused Andrew Tate of rape and assault in 2014 and 2015. Additional reporting says British prosecutors also announce further charges based on evidence from Bedfordshire Police, spanning 2010 to 2017 and including rape, assault, trafficking, and offenses related to indecent images of a child and extreme pornography. The brothers are held in federal detention and appear in US federal court to challenge extradition. Their lawyer, Joseph McBride, says they are innocent and argues the arrest and extradition efforts are politically motivated, without providing specific details. US court proceedings include hearings scheduled as a judge considers whether extradition conditions are met. The brothers have repeatedly denied wrongdoing.

1 month agoWASHINGTON, United States (AFP) — United States (US) President Donald Trump will not stop the extradition of influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan to Britain on sex crime charges, the White House said on Thursday. Self-professed misogynist Tate and his younger sibling were detained by US authorities in Miami on Saturday in a move their lawyer called "politically motivated." The Tates are challenging their extradition. "No," White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt told a news briefing when asked if Trump or the administration planned to intervene in the Tates' extradition process. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has also distanced the administration from the case. "There's no role for us to play at this moment or maybe ever in that regard," he told reporters in the Philippines on Wednesday. The Tate brothers are avid supporters of Trump and were part of the hyper-masculine "manosphere" that contributed to the Republican's 2024 US presidential election victory. Andrew Tate also tried to cultivate relationships in the past with Trump's sons Don Jr and Barron, US media reported. The Tates were arrested after British prosecutors announced new charges of rape, sex trafficking and assault. They now face 59 charges in total -- 42 against Andrew and 17 against Tristan. Their lawyer said on Monday that they were innocent and would fight extradition. "It's politically motivated. There's no question about it," lawyer Joseph McBride told reporters outside a Miami court after a hearing on the case. In Romania, where they have been based in recent years, the Tates face allegations of trafficking minors, sexual intercourse with a minor and money laundering. In March 2025, the US state of Florida launched a criminal investigation against the brothers. The status of that investigation is unclear.
