An investigative documentary on Andrew Tate, the former kickboxer who rose to fame on social media before facing rape and human trafficking charges, is underway at BBC Three.
The doc, which has the working title “Andrew Tate: The Man Who Groomed the World?,” promises to take viewers inside the international network of Andrew Tate and his brother, Tristan.
“For the first time, audiences will see the inner circle behind Andrew Tate, exposing those helping to craft him into a global figurehead, exploring the ideologies and end goal of Tate and his circle, and revealing how his global network has left potentially hundreds of victims in its wake,” a press release reads.
Andrew and Tristan, along with two women, were arrested in Romania in December 2022 on suspicion of human trafficking and organized crime. At the time, Romanian police alleged that they had coerced victims into creating paid pornography on social media.
