Andrew Tate reminisces words of wisdom shared by his father when he was 6

Andrew Tate recently shared a newspaper clipping of himself from when he was a six-year-old chess prodigy, alongside a quote from his father.

The controversial internet personality was placed under house arrest last week after spending three months inside a Romanian jail cell. Tate and his brother Tristan were originally arrested in December last year in a police probe and were accused of rape, human trafficking, and conspiring to form a criminal group.

Both brothers maintained their innocence due to a lack of evidence, and will now spend the remainder of April confined to their homes whilst the investigation continues.

Upon returning home and once again having access to amenities such as the internet, 'Cobra' recently shared a post on Twitter about his childhood. The post features a newspaper article written about himself from when he was just six-years-old and lost multiple matches in a chess tournament. Tate then revealed the words of wisdom his father gave him, which he still remembers to this day.

Andrew Tate wrote:

"I remember this. I remember him withdrawing me from the tournament when I was 6 years old. I beat the first two adults, then lost 3 in a row. I asked: Will I be able to beat them at chess when Im grown up? He replied: Son, once you're grown up, you'' beat anyone at anything."

Andrew Tate on his mother and father shaping his views on relationship dynamics

Andrew Tate is often accused of being a mysoginist due to his strong views towards male and female roles in the modern world. The former kickboxer has often stated that a woman 'belongs' to a man whilst in a relationship and added that he feels his mother was often submissive to his father throughout their marriage.

Speaking about his parents to Patrick Bet-David on The PBD Podcast in 2022, Tate admitted that his parents played a key role in his understanding of male and female relationships, and their roles in society, by watching their dynamic.

Andrew Tate said:

"Yeah, so my mother was fantastic. She was an amazing mother. I don't like to talk about positive and negatives. My mother was very much subservient to my father, which was a good thing. They used to have arguments, etc. And I think I learned a lot of my lessons, I guess, on male-female dynamics, to a degree, from my childhood."

He added:

"[They] start arguing. He just walked in the house. [They] start arguing. He came down to me and said, 'Son, give me a hug.' I gave him a hug. He goes, 'Alright. See you in a few weeks.' I said, 'Where are you going?' He goes, 'When you're older, you'll understand. Mother won't shut up.'" Tate smilingly continued, "Walked out the door. I didn't see him for two weeks. This is who he was."
