Influencer Andrew Tate and Brother Tristan Arrested in Miami
Social media personality Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan, who is also an Internet star, were arrested in Miami, Fla. on Saturday.
The influencer brothers’ arrest came as the British authorities called for their extradition on rape and sex trafficking charges.
“The Crown Prosecution Service has decided to bring further charges against brothers Andrew and Tristan Tate in relation to four further victims,” British prosecutors shared in a statement on Saturday. “The CPS has decided to prosecute Andrew Tate, 39, with seven further counts of rape, three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation, three counts of assault occasioning actual bodily harm and 19 additional charges for offences relating to indecent images of a child and extreme pornography.”
The statement continued: “The CPS has decided to prosecute Tristan Tate, 38, with one count of sexual assault, two counts of rape and three counts of arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation.”
Per the British authorities, the allegations are said to have taken place between July 2010 and August 2017.
“The suspects were arrested by the US Marshal Service in the United States of America on July 18, 2026,” the British prosecutors further shared. “Following their arrest in the US, prosecutors will be seeking extradition in relation to the original 21 charges and the further charges which we have decided to prosecute.”
Malcolm McHaffie, head of the Special Crime Division at the Crown Prosecution Service, shared that they decided to pursue additional charges against the Tate brothers due to alleged offenses relating to rape, arranging or facilitating trafficking for sexual exploitation and offenses relating to indecent images of a child.
“These charging decisions followed receipt of a further file of evidence from Bedfordshire Police and bring the total number of alleged victims in this case to seven,” McHaffie said in a statement. “The Crown Prosecution Service reminds everyone that criminal proceedings are active, and that these defendants have the right to a fair trial. It is extremely important that there be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.”
However, in an interview with the Associated Press, the brothers’ attorney Joseph McBride slammed the new charges as “filth and slander” meant to derail his clients’ defamation lawsuits in the U.S.
“They’re pulling out all the stops to make sure these guys never get their day in court,” McBride said. “We are confident that once a competent judge sees the facts, and once the Department of Justice confronts this egregious abuse of its own authority, Andrew and Tristan Tate will walk free. America does not do Britain’s political dirty work.”
Prior to Saturday’s arrest, Tristan had faced charges for 11 counts, including three counts of rape, six counts of actual bodily harm and two counts of human trafficking. Meanwhile, Andrew had faced 10 counts, including three counts of rape, four counts of actual bodily harm, two counts of human trafficking and one count of controlling prostitution for gain. The previous charges were tied to three victims, but the new charges relate to four new victims.

How to watch France vs. England in the third-place FIFA World Cup match: TV channel, streaming, kickoff time
The championship match for the 2026 FIFA World Cup is just one day away, with Argentina and Spain facing off at New York New Jersey Stadium to determine who leaves North America with the glory. But there’s still one more match being held in Miami Gardens: the bronze final, which will determine who leaves the cup with a third-place finish.
This face-off will pit France and England against each other. Here’s how to catch the match at home, where celebrations are, and what to keep in mind for both teams.
How to watch France vs. England
- Date: Saturday, July 18, 2026
- Kickoff time: 5 p.m. ET
- Location: Hard Rock Stadium (known as Miami Stadium for the FIFA World Cup), located in Miami Gardens, Florida
- TV (English): FOX Sports/FS1
- TV (Spanish): Telemundo
- Streaming: Fubo, FOX Sports app, Peacock (Spanish-language broadcast)
Miami’s Bayfront Park is also hosting the FIFA Fan Fest, which is expected to still draw thousands of fans in to watch the match. Bayfront Park has become a major boon for fans during the World Cup.
The open-air fan fest is free and has been running throughout the tournament, offering soccer fans and families a chance to enjoy the World Cup’s excitement without match tickets.
A battle for a bronze finish
Both France and England lost their respective semi-finals, leading to this fight for a third-place finish. France’s Kylian Mbappe will aim to add to his eight goals and beat Lionel Messi to win the adidas Golden Boot. England’s Harry Kane and Jude Bellingham both have six goals and could also try for the award.
France started the tournament in dominant fashion. They beat Senegal 3-1 in the opening match before reaching a 3-0 shutout against Iraq, then winning the group stage with a 4-1 trouncing of Norway. France remained hungry in the knockout stage, taking out Sweden 3-0, then Paraguay 1-0 and Morocco 2-0.
But Spain would put a halt to France’s run with a decisive 2-0 win in Dallas.
England, meanwhile, had a rather eventful storyline throughout the tournament. A 4-2 win over Croatia marked the start of the journey, but a 0-0 draw against Ghana in the group stage became a wake-up call. England won 2-0 against Panama to win their group and keep the momentum going, but Congo DR kept them on their toes in Atlanta before Harry Kane’s pair of late-match goals kept England in the tournament.
Two more dramatic wins kept England in the running: a 3-2 victory over Mexico and a 2-1 win after extra time against Norway. But it was Argentina who ultimately ended the championship run for England, earning two goals against a sole one for England.
France and England have met plenty of times outside of the World Cup, but have met three times during previous tournaments. England won a group stage match against France 2-0 in 1966, and again 3-1 in the first group stage match in 1982. They met most recently during the quarterfinals of the 2022 tournament in Qatar, with France winning 2-1.
Miami hasn’t seen the last of FIFA fever, and the Magic City will host one more game before the epic final: the third place match between France and England on Saturday.
But before they get to Miami Stadium, plenty of fans will first go through Miami International Airport.
To prepare for the influx of travelers making their way to the city to watch the game in person, the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) is hosting a news conference on Friday to outline its security protocols.
Officials will be providing updates on passenger screening procedures, enhanced airport security measures, and the role of the Federal Air Marshal Service at Miami Stadium.
They’re also expected to provide some tips to make the travel experience as seamless as possible.
