Andrew Tate denied request to visit ill mother in UK - BBC News
Andrew Tate says his mother "must be alone at Christmas" after his travel request was blocked.
A request by Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan to visit their mother in the UK after she suffered a heart attack has been denied by a Romanian court.

Writing on X, Andrew said: "The Romanian state decided she must be alone at Christmas, if she is alive."

The Tate brothers currently face rape and human trafficking charges which they both deny.

They are both currently unable to leave Romania.

The hearing was held behind closed doors, and the judge is expected to outline his motivation in the coming days.

The brothers were granted the liberty to move within Romania following a period spent under house arrest, but international travel has remained off-limits.

Their arrest, which took place in December 2022, saw them spend time in jail until March, when house arrest was imposed.

The charges, levied in June against the Tate brothers and two co-accused women, allege the exploitation of seven women through the "loverboy method," a deceitful tactic promising relationships or marriages.

Andrew Tate staunchly maintains his innocence, arguing that prosecutors lack evidence and dismissing the case as a political plot aimed at stifling him.

He has recently attempted to legally reclaim confiscated assets, including luxury cars and watches worth millions of euros.
