Did Andrew Tate have a hair transplant?

Andrew Tate is understood to have undergone a hair transplant in 2019 after being diagnosed with male pattern baldness.

He had a procedure known as follicular unit extraction (FUE), in which tiny grafts from the scalp’s donor area are removed and subsequently implanted in the recipient spot.

Who are Andrew Tate’s parents?

Andrew Tate was born to Emory Tate and Eileen Tate.

He has two younger siblings, Tristan and Janine.

Their father, Emory Tate was a Chicago-born American chess player.

He was an international master, and five-time winner of the United States Armed Forces Chess championship according to chess.com.

In 2015, Emory died in California at the early age of 56 after fainting during the competition, according to Show Biz Corner.

In August 2022, it was reported by the Daily Mail that their mother Eileen brought up the three children in relative poverty after moving to Bedfordshire, England when Tate was 11.

Andrew Tate was kicked off of Big Brother

Andrew first came to wider public attention when he appeared on reality TV show Big Brother.

But his stay in the BB house proved to be short-lived, and he was kicked off the Channel 5 show after a video of him appearing to assault a woman emerged.

Tate told The Sun in 2016 that the video depicted role play.

In 2022, rape and domestic abuse charities including Rape Crisis England and Wales and Women’s Aid called on TikTok to remove him from the platform over comments he’s made in videos.

Amelia Handy, policy lead at Rape Crisis England and Walestold The Daily Mail: “These videos are a clear example of rape culture, where rape and sexual violence are minimised and survivors are blamed for crimes committed against them.”

What does today’s decision mean for Andrew Tate?

The Bucharest Court of Appeals said in a written ruling that it “replaces the house arrest measure with that of judicial control for a period of 60 days from August 4 until October 2.”

The ruling means that Tate, his brother Tristan and suspects  Georgiana Naghel and Luana Radu can leave the house, but not the capital and the surrounding Ilfov county.

Under Romanian law, a judge has 60 days to inspect the case files to ensure legality. The trial will not start until that process is completed.

Andrew Tate breaks silence following decision

Andrew Tate has been released from house arrest, pending a trial, a Romanian court has ruled.

Following the decision, Andrew Tate took to social media to share his response.

Writing on Twitter, the misogynist said: “After 10 months. 3 in jail, 7 at home. After 15million euro of asset seizures. After an inditement based on nothing. The file was passed to a Judge who has ruled it weak and circumstantial.

“I have been released from house arrest but must remain within Romania. Now. To the Mosque.”

Andrew Tate recently sparked outrage after comments made towards Amanda Holden

The court’s decision comes after the disgraced influencer sparked outrage after he posted a misogynistic comment to Amanda Holden’s bikini snap.

The influencer shared Amanda’s photo where she poses in a black string bikini while on holiday and wrote: “You are a wife and a mother and you’re far past a teenager.

“There is no need for this post.”

His father died in 2015.

Is Andrew Tate on TikTok?

No, Andrew Tate himself is not on the social media platform.

TikTok banned Tate after the infamous misogynist, who has been charged with rape, broke a slew of the platform’s guidelines.

However, TikTok remains full of Tate’s content due to his fans posting it on their own accounts.

Tate brothers deny all charges

Andrew and Tristan strongly deny all charges against them and have been fighting to be released ever since.

The duo were released from the hellhole jail after winning an appeal to be moved to house arrest in March.

In June, Romania’s Directorate for Investigating Organized Crime and Terrorism (DIICOT). had requested that judges extend the house arrest measure after the agency filed its investigation.

Why was Andrew Tate arrested?

The two brothers were arrested in December. after they were accused of recruiting women on social media platforms and persuading them to travel to their on the outskirts of Bucharest.

Andrew has also been charged with rape and Tristan has been charged with instigating others to violence.

The indictment says the two brothers and two Romanian suspects Georgiana Naghel and Luana Radu formed an organised criminal group in 2021 for human trafficking in Romania.

Prosecutors allege seven female victims were recruited by Tate through false promises of marriage or a relationship, known as the “loverboy method”.
