Andrew Tate and brother leave Romania for US after travel ban lifted

Summary

Andrew and Tristan Tate have left Romania for the US after officials lifted their travel ban.

The brothers, arrested in 2022, face charges of rape, human trafficking, and money laundering but were granted temporary permission to travel.

Romania’s government denies US interference, though reports suggest Trump’s envoy discussed their case. The Tates, also wanted in the UK for past allegations, must return for a March court hearing.

Prosecutors accuse them of exploiting women through the “loverboy” method and profiting millions from forced pornography. Both deny all charges.
