Andrew Tate recently requested Elon Musk not to delete his late father's Twitter handle after the Twitter CEO announced that he would be purging accounts that have been inactive for too long. Musk also notified users that they would likely suffer a loss in follower count due to this action.

While the controversial influencer rarely talks about his family, except his brother Tristan, he has previously iterated how he was exceptionally close to his father, Emory Tate Jr., and was heavily influenced by him as a child.

Emory Tate Jr. was a well-known chess player who rose to International Master, the third highest ranking in chess. He also won the Indiana State Chess Championship six times and was inducted into the Indiana State Chess Hall of Fame in 2005. He passed away in October 2015.

"Very good idea. But my father died, and I still read his account daily. Please keep him active. @tateterrific."

Andrew Tate recently asked Elon Musk to keep his late father's Twitter account active after the business magnate announced new changes to the social media platform's policies.

"Tate's father is the main reason for their success. Bring masculinity back."

Another fan praised the chess master's tweets and wrote:

"Just read some of dads tweets. Priceless."

One fan offered a solution, writing:

"Just post something to keep it going, seems reasonable."

Another fan claimed to have screenshots of all of Emory Tate's tweets for Andrew Tate and wrote:
