SELF-PROCLAIMED misogynist Andrew Tate held a gun to a woman’s face and said “you’re going to do as I say or there’ll be hell to pay,” new court documents have alleged.
The documents have been submitted to the High Court by four women who acuse the social media influencer and former professional kickboxer of sexual violence against them.
One of the claimants said that he grabbed her by the throat on a number of occasions in 2015, had assaulted her with a belt and had pointed a gun at her face.
She also accused him of pointing firearms at her and that he had “indicated to her that he would like to kill someone if he could.”
A second complainant alleges Tate strangled her during sex without her consent in 2015 and “made it very clear that she was ‘his’, and if anyone else spoke to her, he would kill them.”
A third woman claims the influencer had said “I’m just debating whether to rape you or not” before going on to have sex with her without her consent in 2013, while saying “who do you belong to?” according to the documents.
The final claimant alleges Tate said phrases such as “I own you” and “I’m going to kill you” and had strangled her during sex until she passed out, in an incident from 2014.
A spokesperson for Tate said the allegations outlined in the documents, which surfaced today, are “unproven and untested,” and “categorically” denied.
In Romania, the Tate brothers are facing allegations of trafficking minors, sexual intercourse with a minor and money laundering.
The pair are due to be extradited to Britain, following the conclusion of those proceedings, to face separate allegations of rape and human trafficking involving different women, which they deny.
