Tate Brothers Face Rape And Human Trafficking Charges In United Kingdom

British prosecutors on Wednesday announced they will charge Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan Tate for rape, human trafficking, and other crimes.

The Crown Prosecution Service confirmed ten charges against Andrew Tate, 38, related to three women. His younger brother, 36-year-old Tristan, faces eleven charges related to one woman, according to Politico Europe.

The charges were approved last year after evidence was obtained from the Bedfordshire Police.

“We can confirm that we have authorised charges against Andrew and Tristan Tate for offences including rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm against three women,” the service said in a statement.

“These charging decisions followed receipt of a file of evidence from Bedfordshire Police. A European Arrest Warrant was issued in England in 2024, and as a result the Romanian courts ordered the extradition to the UK of Andrew and Tristan Tate,” it continued. “However, the domestic criminal matters in Romania must be settled first.”

“The Crown Prosecution Service reminds everyone that criminal proceedings are active, and the defendants have the right to a fair trial. It is extremely important that there be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings,” the statement concludes.

Wednesday’s announcement is the latest in a series of accusations against the Tates from the sordid to the criminal. The two brothers were first arrested in December 2022 by Romanian authorities. Initial charges in Romania were of rape and human trafficking, but they have since been expanded to include sex with a minor and trafficking underage persons.

The Tates have said they are innocent of all charges and portrayed themselves as the targets of a high-powered conspiracy meant to silence them.

The Tates are also under investigation in Florida. Attorney General James Uthmeier said on a recent episode of the podcast “Standpoint with Gabe Groisman” that he is probing potential criminal activity by the Tates that may have taken place within his jurisdiction.

“To me, when they’re making statements that sound an awful lot like criminal activity, I think as attorney general, I’ve got a duty to investigate and make sure that we’re not subjecting, you know, women in our state to dangers,” said Uthmeier. “If there’s a crime that occurred here in our jurisdiction, we’ve got a prerogative to prosecute it, and we will do so.”

In March, Andrew Tate’s ex-girlfriend, Brianna Stern, filed a lawsuit in California alleging that the elder Tate beat and abused her during their relationship. She also provided text messages that suggest Tate warned Stern against speaking out against him.

“The last time I saw Andrew was on March 11, 2025 at the Beverly Hills Hotel. The last words he said to me before I left the hotel were: ‘Shut the f*** up, b****. You will never backtalk me. You are my property,’” Stern wrote in a statement.

Tate’s attorney dismissed the lawsuit: “This is a blatant cash grab — a desperate attempt by a sad individual to exploit Andrew’s success and reputation for personal gain.”
