Andrew Tate claims he’s ‘seriously ill with lung lesion’ & demands treatment in Dubai in bid to be freed from jail | The Sun

ANDREW Tate has claimed to have a serious health condition and needs to be released from prison to seek treatment with his doctor in Dubai.

Tate – and his brother Tristan – are fighting for their release after languishing in a Romanian jail since the start of 2023.

Medical records have now been submitted to the court which appear to show Tate has a lesion on his upper right lung.

The documents – original versions of which were released to The Sun Online – appear to show Tate's doctor said he needed "urgent investigation".

Tate's legal team are arguing he must be released so he can undergo treatment and further investigation.

The courts however decided that if Tate requires medical care, he will be able to receive treatment in Romania.

Rumours around Tate's health have swirled following his arrest – including a mystery hospital dash in January.

A judicial source told The Sun Online: "[Tate] has tried with several medical documents to convince the judges from Bucharest Appeal Court to free him in order to be able to fly to Dubai for further medical investigations regarding his illness discovered on a previous investigation in 2022.

"But the judges established that Mr Tate can be professionally investigated and treated in hospitals from Bucharest.

"In fact, Mr Tate will be medically investigated in one of the best private hospitals from Bucharest."

But the war of words between the two sides deepened as Tate's team demand he is allowed to visit his doctor in Dubai.

"Andrew was diagnosed with a serious medical condition in December 2022 whilst he was in Dubai," his representative told The Sun Online.

"His wish is to attend a prearranged consultation in Dubai if he was released and then return to Romania.

"It is clear that the recommended appointments, for this serious medical issue, were made before the arrest."

Files dated on January 2 describe how he had a CT scan which noticed the lesion had "concerning features" – noting he was scheduled to undergo another scan, biopsy and "time is of the essence".

Tate's medical diagnosis appears to have been made a number of weeks before his arrest in December – and his doctor argues that Tate must be "repatriated to the UAE".

The Tates remain detained amid allegations of human trafficking, organised crime and rape – with their "angels"Georgiana Naghel and Luana Radu also under investigation.

They deny all charges against them.

The brothers have had all their appeals for release denied as Romanian authorities consider them a flight risk.

Andrew and Tristan can be held for up to 180 days should further detention extensions be granted by the courts.

The Tates were arrested 64 days ago as of publication – meaning they can be detained until June 27.

Misogynist influencer Tate built up an image that appealed to teenage boys – creating an online empire that made him one of the most searched people on Google.

Masquerading as lifestyle advice, much of the content is considered highly sexist and is seen as promoting violence against women.

His influence has had a worrying spread amongst young men and boys, with one UK MP saying he is "brainwashing" children.

Tate initially gained fame after a short-lived appearance on Big Brother.

He was dumped from the reality show after alleged footage of him beating a woman emerged online.

Since then he has sparked revulsion and outrage with a wave of warped content online.
