In 2016, Tate gained public notoriety following his removal from the 17th season of ''[[Big Brother (franchise)|Big Brother]]'' following the release of a video in which Tate appeared to beat a woman. He was subsequently removed from the show. Tate said the actions were consensual.<ref name="ignored"/>


Tate's father [[Emory Tate]] was an [[International Master]] of [[chess]]. Andrew Tate is of [[African-American]] and [[English people|English]] descent, and has two younger siblings: his brother Tristan (who appeared in ''[[Shipwrecked: The Island]]'') and his sister Janine.<ref>Mike Klein, [http://www.chess.com/news/emory-tate-1958-2015-7615 IM Emory Tate, 1958–2015]</ref>
Tate received attention for his [[Twitter#tweets|tweets]] delineating his view of what qualifies as sexual harassment amid the [[Harvey Weinstein sexual abuse cases]] and for tweeting several statements about his view that sexual assault victims share responsibility for their assaults. Three of Tate's [[Twitter]] accounts were suspended at different times. In 2021, an account he created to evade his previous ban was verified by Twitter contrary to their policies. The account appeared to have been part of a promotion with [[Bugatti]]. The account was subsequently permanently suspended, and Twitter said the verification occurred in error.<ref name="ignored"/>


In 2016, Tate competed as an "other" housemate on the [[Big Brother (British series 17)|17th season]] of the British version of the reality television series ''[[Big Brother (British TV series)|Big Brother]]''. One week into the show, Tate was removed from the show for actions outside the house prior to the competition.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bbspy.co.uk/bb17/news/0613/andrew-tate-ejected-from-big-brother-2016-over-information-channel-5-learned-today-twitter-tweets-scandal|title=Confirmed: Andrew Tate removed from Big Brother 2016|publisher=BBSpy|date=June 13, 2016|access-date=August 27, 2016}}</ref> It was later revealed that Tate had been removed due to a video, obtained by ''[[The Sun (United Kingdom)|The Sun]]'', showing him hitting a woman with what appeared to be a belt.<ref name="kinky video">{{cite web|url=http://www.bbspy.co.uk/bb17/news/0614/andrew-tate-claims-leak-of-kinky-video-to-blame-for-his-big-brother-2016-removal-insists-it-was-consensual-the-sun|title=Andrew: Big Brother ejection due to 'kinky' video leak|publisher=BBSpy|date=June 14, 2016|access-date=August 27, 2016}}</ref> Tate said that the actions were consensual, the belt was actually made of felt, and that ''The Sun'' had edited the video significantly to make him look bad.<ref name="kinky video"/> In a Facebook video, he said the real reason he was removed was because the program's producers were worried about his in-show strategy,<ref name="kinky video"/> which was denied by Channel 5.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.bbspy.co.uk/bb17/news/0613/channel-5-denies-andrew-tate-claim-he-was-ejected-from-big-brother-2016-because-bosses-worried-about-master-plan|title=C5 denies Andrew's response to his Big Brother ejection|publisher=BBSpy|date=June 13, 2016|access-date=August 27, 2016}}</ref>
In April 2022, ''[[The Daily Beast]]'' reported that Tate's house was raided by Romanian police in relation to a [[human trafficking]] and [[rape]] investigation, prompted by reports that an American woman was being held at the property against her will. Romanian authorities found both a Romanian woman and an American woman at the property. As of April, 2022, Romanian authorities said the investigation was still ongoing. A [[United States Department of State|U.S. State Department]] spokesperson referred to the reported abduction but declined to comment further, citing privacy considerations.<ref name="romania">{{Cite news |last=Sommer |first=Will |date=2022-04-22 |title=Police Raid MAGA 'King of Toxic Masculinity' in Human-Trafficking Investigation |language=en |work=The Daily Beast |url=https://www.thedailybeast.com/police-raid-maga-king-of-toxic-masculinity-in-human-trafficking-investigation |access-date=2022-04-23}}</ref>

Emory Andrew Tate III (born December 1, 1986) is a British-American kickboxer, commentator and businessman.

As a kickboxer, Tate is a 3-time ISKA world champion and Enfusion champion. Born in Washington, DC and moving to England at four years old, he fought out of Luton, England, until his retirement. Tate made his return in February 2020 at KO Masters 7 in Bucharest, Romania, where he currently resides.[3]

Combat sports

After defeating former super cruiserweight British champions Ollie Green and Mo Karbo, Tate faced Paul Randle for the vacant International Sport Karate Association (ISKA) English Light Cruiserweight title.[6] On April 25, 2009, Tate beat Randle in the fifth round of their bout in Derby, England, winning his first ever belt and title.[7]

Tate later scored a few more victories and won the International Kickboxing Federation (IKF) British Cruiserweight title against Daniel Hughes with a first-round KO in 2009. On March 19, 2011, he fought his first world title match in France.[8][9] Tate lost the fight for the vacant ISKA World Full-Contact Light Heavyweight Championship to Jean-Luc Benoit on points after 12 rounds. They had a rematch three months later in Luton, England, but this time Tate became champion, defeating Benoit via KO in round 8 of the scheduled 12 rounds.[10][11]

Tate lost an It's Showtime 85MAX title match against Sahak Parparyan on May 12, 2012, in Kortrijk, Belgium, on points.[12]

On December 2, 2012, Tate participated in Enfusion 3: Trial of the Gladiators to determine the world's No. 1 kickboxer in the 85 kg category. He qualified for the tournament in August 2011 in Ohrid, Macedonia, stopping Sammy Masa by second-round KO and Adnan Omeragić by first-round KO.[13] He scored a victory in the semi-finals, knocking out Ritchie Hocking with punches in the first round, but lost in the final via a first-round flying knee KO from Franci Grajš, who fought in the semi-final against Sahak Parparyan.[14][15]

Tate avenged a 2011 loss to Vincent Petitjean and won his second ISKA world title in 12 rounds of two minutes. The fight was held in Châteaurenard, France, on March 9, 2013, with Tate taking the ISKA World Full-Contact Light Cruiserweight Championship via split decision.[16][17][18][19] Tate defended the title one year later, beating Cyril Vetter early in the first round.[20][21][non-primary source needed]

After taking four victories in the Enfusion ring during 2013 over David Radeff, Marino Schouten, Marlon Hunt, and Laszlo Szabo, Tate participated in a four-man tournament to determine the Enfusion 85 kg World Champion, alongside Mirko Cingel, Jiří Žák, and Rustam Guseinov. Held in Žilina, Slovakia, on April 26, 2014, Tate lost in the semi-finals to local fighter and tournament winner, Miroslav Cingel, via unanimous decision.[22][23]

Tate later fought for the Enfusion 90 kg World Champion title against kickboxing veteran Wendell Roche on June 28, 2014. Tate won in the second round,[24][25] becoming one of only two fighters to achieve a TKO against Roche.[26]

After winning the Enfusion title, Tate fought Liang Ling at the K-1 China vs. USA event. He defeated Ling by unanimous decision.[27] 23 months later, Tate was scheduled to defend his Enfusion title against Ibrahim El Boustati. El Boustati would win the fight by a first-round TKO.[28]

Tate returned to kickboxing, following a four-year absence, to fight Miralem Ahmeti at KO Masters 7. Tate won the fight by a first-round knockout.[29]

On 15 December 2020, he called out Jake Paul under boxing rules.[30][31] Tate offered $3 million to Paul.[32]

Personal life

He commentated for Real Xtreme Fighting (RXF), an MMA promoter, based in Romania. Andrew and his brother Tristan Tate, a former amateur mixed martial artist, reside in Bucharest, Romania.[48]

Tate's father Emory Tate was an International Master of chess. Andrew Tate is of African-American and English descent, and has two younger siblings: his brother Tristan (who appeared in Shipwrecked: The Island) and his sister Janine.[49]

In 2016, Tate competed as an "other" housemate on the 17th season of the British version of the reality television series Big Brother. One week into the show, Tate was removed from the show for actions outside the house prior to the competition.[50] It was later revealed that Tate had been removed due to a video, obtained by The Sun, showing him hitting a woman with what appeared to be a belt.[51] Tate said that the actions were consensual, the belt was actually made of felt, and that The Sun had edited the video significantly to make him look bad.[51] In a Facebook video, he said the real reason he was removed was because the program's producers were worried about his in-show strategy,[51] which was denied by Channel 5.[52]

In 2021, Tate's Twitter account was verified contrary to Twitter's policies and subsequently permanently suspended for account evasion as he had previously been banned for various violations.[53] Tate had previously sparked controversy in 2017 after he made statements accusing those suffering from depression and mental health issues as being "lazy".[54]

On April 11, 2022, Tate's house was raided by Romanian police in relation to an investigation concerning allegations that a woman was being held at the property against her will, human trafficking and rape. A Romanian woman and an American woman were found at the property.[55] CCTV leaked showed that the American woman was not in any danger. The case was subsequently dismissed.[56]
