<p>Controversial social media influencer Andrew Tate and his brother, Tristan, were granted permission to leave Romania and will arrive in the United States on Thursday after being held in the European country for two years on charges of human trafficking and organized crime.</p>
<p>The Tate brothers boarded a private jet at around 10:00 p.m. Wednesday and are expected to land in southern Florida sometime Thursday morning, The New York Times <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/27/world/europe/tate-brothers-romania-us.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. Romanian prosecutors allege that Andrew and Tristan, who started a pornographic webcam business, misled multiple women into believing they were interested in a relationship before housing them in a compound and forcing them to appear in pornographic videos. The Tate brothers have denied all charges against them.</p>
<p>Andrew and Tristan were successful in their appeal of an indictment against them in a Bucharest court, with the court finding that the case did not meet the requirements for a trial. Last month, Romania also lifted its house arrest order.</p>
<p>Tate and his brother were placed under house arrest last August after authorities launched a second investigation, according to <a href="https://news.sky.com/story/andrew-tate-house-arrest-order-lifted-by-court-in-romania-13288636" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sky News</a>. The travel permission granted to Andrew and his brother marks a shift in Romania&#8217;s handling of the investigation and comes after the Trump administration <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/3f951e0b-a9cb-489a-be89-fdf9f996ed27" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly</a> pressured the Romanian government to lift travel restrictions on the pair.</p>
<p>Tate, who is a dual American and British citizen, has backed President Donald Trump and wrote on X earlier this month, &#8220;The Tates will be free, Trump is the president. The good old days are back. And they will be better than ever. Hold on [heart emoji].&#8221;</p>
<p>While Romanian officials granted permission for the Tate brothers to leave the country, they stressed that Andrew and Tristan are still required to appear &#8220;before authorities when summoned,” adding, “Failure to comply could result in stricter legal measures.”</p>
<p>The Tate brothers were also charged in Britain in a separate case and are being investigated in the country over &#8220;allegations of rape and human trafficking,&#8221; The Washington Post <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/02/27/andrew-tristan-tate-romania-us/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reported</a>. The Tate brothers have denied the allegations made against them in Britain, saying they are disappointed &#8220;that such serious allegations are being resurrected without substantial new evidence.&#8221; A Romanian court ruled last March that the Tate brothers would be extradited to the United Kingdom after legal proceedings in Romania conclude.</p>
<p>Andrew Tate is a contentious figure on the Right. The social media personality gained notoriety mostly for his beliefs on sex and women. Tate, who has 10.7 million followers on X and over 770,000 followers on Instagram, often encourages men to have multiple sexual partners and discourages marriage.</p>
<p>How Tate is received when he lands on American soil is yet to be seen, but Daily Wire CEO Jeremy Boreing said on Thursday that the response to his arrival among conservatives will be telling.</p>
<p>&#8220;The way conservatives and conservative organizations respond to Andrew Tate arriving on US soil will tell you everything you need to know about them,&#8221; Boreing wrote on X. &#8220;Any organization or host who embraces him is engaged in far worse than simple grift, though it is that. Andrew Tate is the enemy of any traditional American conservatism.&#8221;</p>
