Andrew Tate and his brother Tristian will spend time behind bars longer than expected after their latest appeal for bail was rejected by a Romanian court. They are currently under detention for alleged human trafficking, rape, and organized crime after they were arrested during a raid carried out at their Romanian home on December 28, 2022.
Tate's representatives confirmed that a request for the Tate brothers to be released was rejected by a court in Bucharest earlier this month, and on Wednesday, the court of appeals upheld the initial ruling.
While bail has been denied three times, the brothers are yet to be formally charged. Mateea Petrescu, Tate's head of communication, stated that their legal team would officially appeal this decision within the given 48-hour time frame.

After their arrest in December, Andrew Tate and his brother were initially detained for 24 hours before the court approved a 30-day preventive detention request by the Romanian authorities. This detention was recently extended for the fourth time, keeping the Tate brothers in jail until the end of April.
In an unfortunate turn for the disgraced influencer, the courts also denied and upheld their decision to refuse his request to be placed on house arrest. Considering his poor record of judicial success, it's quite possible that Andrew Tate could spend his entire 180-day detention period in jail until at least June 27.
