Andrew and Tristan Tate will return to UK to face charges, lawyers say

Andrew and Tristan Tate, the former professional kickboxers and social media personalities, face 21 criminal charges in the United Kingdom, including rape, bodily harm and human trafficking. The Crown Prosecution Service authorised the charges after Bedfordshire Police supplied evidence. While Romanian authorities investigate the case, a court has ruled extradition is possible, although the timeline is uncertain. The brothers have been under travel restrictions in Romania since 2022, briefly travelled to the United States in early 2025, and now return to Romania as proceedings conclude. Andrew faces 10 charges relating to three alleged victims, while Tristan faces 11 charges connected to one. They deny all accusations and have criticised media coverage, saying they lack information about the allegations.
