Transcript of Andrew Tate 'calling a woman his 'slave' is revealed'
‘You’ll do what I tell you. You’re mine forever, no matter what’: Transcript of Andrew Tate ‘telling woman who thought he would marry her that she was his “slave” is revealed’ as he is denied bail in Romania
- Andrew Tate was yesterday denied appeal and will stay in prison for 30 days
- Prosecutors allegedly filed transcript in which Tate calls a woman his ‘slave’
- He is accused of luring women to his webcam operation by promising marriage
Andrew Tate told a woman who thought she was going to marry the millionaire misogynist that she was his ‘slave’, prosecutors have reportedly told the court.
The anti-feminist influencer, 36, yesterday lost his appeal bid and will remain in prison along with his brother Tristan and two Romanian accomplices after their arrest as part of a sex trafficking and rape probe.
Romania’s organised crime body DIICOT is said to have shown a transcript to the court of a conversation between Tate and a young woman in his webcam studio.
The transcript, seen by local news site Gandul, appears to show Tate using the ‘loverboy’ method to recruit young women to his online porn operation by luring them with offers of marriage.

The alleged victims are promised a life of luxury with Tate and but are instead put up in the video chat room at his Bucharest bolthole and made to work, it is claimed.
The reported transcript claims the self-described misogynist said the woman would have to get a tattoo of his name if he ordered it, and told her: ‘You’ll do whatever I tell you. You’re mine forever, no matter what.’
The woman is heard saying she does not want a tattoo and wants to ‘stay pure’ but Tate allegedly responds, ‘pure women submit to their men,’ and claimed two other women had tattoos of his name on their body.
In a later excerpt, the news outlet claims the ex-Big Brother star says: ‘If I choose a woman to be my wife, she will love me enough to let me tell her what I want. I will decide if she is a slave.
‘She doesn’t make the rules, I’m a man, I don’t listen to complaints from women. Just trust me and shut up, don’t p*** me off again today! It doesn’t matter if I call you a slave, it matters that I can if I want to do it without you being stupid.’
The transcript also claims that the women are made to call Tate ‘our king’, and the woman states her discomfort at having to ‘share’ him with the other webcam girls after she was brought to Romania to live with him.
The anti-feminist influencer, 36, yesterday lost his appeal bid and will remain in prison for the 30-day arrest warrant
The court decision read that the unfounded appeals were rejected yesterday evening, January 10, 2023
Georgiana Naghel (left), 28, is described as a businesswoman and influencer who is believed to have been dating Tate for almost a year before her arrest. Luana Radu (right), 32, was previously based at a police station in central Bucharest but quit the force eight years ago to pursue a career working in video chat rooms
Prosecutors investigating the case have seized 15 luxury cars, at least seven of which were owned by the Tate brothers
Prosecutors also alleged in court filings that Tate refused to let women leave his compound without being escorted by one of his employees, according to WhatsApp messages.
In the unearthed messages between Tate and his alleged victims, the infamous misogynist appears to boast about how he runs the operation.
The four suspects have denied any accusations of criminality but will remain in prison for at least the duration of the 30-day arrest warrant.
The brothers have turned to high-flying British lawyer Andrew Ford, 34, who was seen entering the courtroom yesterday with the handcuffed pair.
According to his LinkedIn biography he deals with selective clientele who are made up of sports stars and other A list celebrities and ‘high net worth clients’.
Following the rejection of the appeal yesterday evening, their other attorney Eugene Vidineac told MailOnline: ‘I’m very disappointed with the court decision. It seems excessive to me.
‘The court warrant means they will stay in custody the full 30-days until the end of January and then we will look again.
Tate, along with his brother Tristan, and two alleged accomplices Luana Radu and Georgiana Naghel, were told that they would remain in custody by the Court of Appeal yesterday
‘I will speak with my clients in the morning and we will decide what the best way forward is but they will be as disappointed as me.’
Tate was initially detained on December 29 for 24 hours along with his brother Tristan, who was charged in the same case.
Two Romanian women dubbed ‘Tate’s Angels’, one a former policewoman and the other his girlfriend, were also taken into custody.
A document explaining the judge’s earlier decision said ‘the possibility of them evading investigations cannot be ignored,’ and that they could ‘leave Romania and settle in countries that do not allow extradition.’
After Tate lost his appeal, a cryptic post on his Twitter account read: ‘When Allah said ‘I test only those I love.’ I took the pain like it was an honour — Abu Hurayrah.’ It was one of several ambiguous posts that appeared on the account since his arrest.
Tate, a former professional kickboxer who has reportedly lived in Romania since 2017, was previously banned from various prominent social media platforms for expressing misogynistic views and hate speech.

DIICOT said it had identified six victims in the trafficking case who were subjected to ‘acts of physical violence and mental coercion’ and were sexually exploited by the members of the alleged crime group.
The agency said victims were lured by pretences of love, and later intimidated, kept under surveillance and subjected to other control tactics while being coerced into performing pornographic acts that were intended to make money for their alleged persecutors.
Prosecutors investigating the case have seized 15 luxury cars, at least seven of which were owned by the Tate brothers, and more than 10 properties or land owned by companies registered to them, DIICOT spokesperson Bolla said.
Bolla said that if prosecutors can prove the Tates gained money through human trafficking, the assets ‘will be taken by the state and (will) cover the expenses of the investigation and damages to the victims.’
After the appeals court upheld the arrest warrant extension, prosecutors can now request detentions of up to 180 days for the four people charged.
The six-hour behind-closed-doors hearing took place yesterday where lawyers tried to convince a panel of judges to release the four from custody.
The Tate brothers later emerged from court in handcuffs and their lawyer said the pair were ‘able to express themselves’ to the judge.
In the failed appeal attempt, Vidineac said both Tate brothers have small children in Romania and they should be freed to care for them.
Andrew has remained coy about the exact number of children he has fathered, but claimed in an interview with the Times in September: ‘I am certain I will have more children than 99.9 per cent of the population of the western world. Double digit children. And they all adore me.’

Eugen Vidineac, who represents both brothers (pictured on December 30 in Bucharest), told Romanian online newspaper Gandul that Romanian police do not have evidence to back up the allegations of rape, human trafficking and organised crime against the Tate brothers

Vidineac, who represents both brothers, told Romanian online newspaper Gandul he believed the character someone like Tate portrays on social media could not be ‘used as evidence in a criminal trial’ as it may not reflect who they really are.
He said it took the Tate brothers ‘some time to understand’ why they were in custody, and that there was no evidence to support the allegations, that also include organised criminal activity.
Asked what evidence there was in support of a human trafficking offence, Mr Vidineac said: ‘In my view, there is no evidence there either, and I’m talking about evidence leading, by itself or directly, to the formation of an opinion of reasonable suspicion regarding the commission of offences provided for and punishable by criminal law.
‘In this case we are talking about human trafficking and organised crime.’
Mr Vidineac said the documents they had seen did not ‘accurately describe the hierarchy of the group, the functions of each person, who was part of this alleged criminal group’.
He said the documents also did not ‘comply with the legal requirements concerning the way in which the offence of human trafficking is committed’.
Speaking about claims the men had contempt for women, Mr Vidineac said: ‘They say that these issues are ripped out of context, out of some interviews they have done on social media.
‘But they also say, if we live our lives surrounded by over 300 people, women and men, we have a lot of girlfriends and supporters all over the world, we’ve been out in public all the time with our girlfriends and there have been no complaints from our girlfriends.
‘People have come out in public and said that they’ve been with one of the Tate brothers and he’s not a violent, uneducated, abusive character as he is being portrayed at this point.’
Speaking about what role social media may play in the case, Mr Vidineac said: ‘In the case of the Tate brothers, I don’t know what their intent was in promoting themselves on social media, but I sit here and wonder, can that intent from the social media stand as evidence in a criminal prosecution case, with respect to a criminal character?’
