Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan have reportedly left Romania and are believed to be heading to the US. The brothers left the country around 5am local time on Thursday, 27 February, on a private jet from Baneasa airport according to the BBC. The two men, who both hold dual UK-US nationality, have been vocal supporters of President Trump, with Romania’s administration recently denying that the US had pressured Bucharest to lift travel restrictions. The social media figure, 38, and his brother, 36, were reportedly on a flight to Florida, according to sources present at the airport. Andrew and Tristan were first arrested in Romania three years ago, where they face trial on allegations of rape, trafficking minors and money laundering. The Tate brothers have denied all claims against them.
