Inside Andrew Tate’s toxic world: Former girlfriends speak out against him

In the summer of 2022, journalists Matt Shea and Jamie Tahsin were in Romania filming a documentary about Andrew Tate and his social media influence.
Tate, who had made a name for himself spouting misogynistic content online invited the documentary makers into his compound in Romania to get a glimpse into his glamorous and extravagant life. Although he appeared invincible, his empire was about to crumble.
As concern about his content began to mount, the controversial influencer was banned from Facebook, Instagram and TikTok for violating community guidelines on dangerous behaviour and hate speech.
But a social media ban was the least of his problems. Back home in London, as Shea and Tahsin continued their investigation into Tate and his business operations, the sinister truth about his webcam industry and his ‘War Room’ began to reveal itself.
In June 2023, Tate and his brother Tristan, along with two Romanian women were formally charged with rape, sex trafficking and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women. He is currently under house arrest at his compound in Bucharest.
In the second of two episodes about the notorious misogynist and influencer, Shea talks about the women from Tate’s past who decided to speak out against him and how his die-hard fans have reacted to his latest string of charges.
