MIAMI– Lawyers for social media influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate will meet with federal prosecutors in Miami on Monday to draw up a timeline for the process fighting extradition to the United Kingdom, which could last months, where the brothers are accused of rape and sex trafficking.

A date for a bond hearing will likely be set during the status conference, along with other important dates such as filing deadlines and a formal extradition hearing. The Tates appeared briefly in court two days after their arrest on July 18.

They are not required to attend Monday’s conference and their lawyers said Friday that the Tates did not plan to be there. They are being held in a federal detention center across from the courthouse.

The Tates promote wealth, male dominance and misogyny through their social media empire and are among the most polarizing internet personalities in the world. The former professional kickboxers, who have dual American and British citizenship, have millions of followers on social media and are open supporters of US President Donald Trump.

The White House has said the brothers should not expect any help from the president. Asked Thursday whether the White House would intervene in the extradition process, press secretary Karoline Leavitt flatly rejected the idea.

“No, we’ve already answered that question,” Leavitt said.

The Tates’ attorney, Joseph McBride, said after last week’s hearing that they should remain in the United States.

“Of course, we oppose extradition because Andrew and Tristan are innocent,” McBride said. “They have never done anything wrong. They should not be extradited for crimes they did not commit.”

McBride said the extradition attempt is politically motivated and suggested the case involved former British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s decision to resign, although he did not provide details.

Prosecutors in Britain said the new charges relate to four new accusers and were brought after authorities received evidence from police in Bedfordshire, southeast England. The allegations, spanning from 2010 to 2017, include rape, assault, trafficking and offenses involving “indecent images of a child and extreme pornography.”

McBride said none of the latest accusers have been identified.

The brothers are already charged with rape, bodily harm, human trafficking and controlling prostitution for profit in relation to three other accusers in the UK between 2012 and 2015.

The new accusations are the latest in a long international legal saga involving Tates that has spanned the United States, Britain and Romania. The brothers have repeatedly denied any wrongdoing.

The brothers moved to Romania in 2016 and were arrested there in 2022, accused of participating in schemes to lure women for sexual exploitation. They denied those accusations and the Romanian case has not prospered due to legal and procedural problems.

Last year, travel restrictions were lifted and they flew to Florida.

Andrew Tate, 39, became known a decade ago when he participated in the British reality television show “Big Brother.” He was kicked off the show when a video surfaced showing him assaulting a woman.

He has amassed more than 10 million followers on X, but has been banned from other platforms, including YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram, for violating hate speech guidelines. He has made widely condemned comments, such as saying that women who are sexually assaulted should take some responsibility for the attacks and sharing graphic descriptions of how he might attack women.

The Tate brothers have consistently denied allegations of abuse and human trafficking, claiming that their violent and misogynistic statements were taken out of context or intended as a joke.
