A UK court ruled today that police can seize more than £2 million from influencer Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan for unpaid taxes.
Police in the counties of Devon and Cornwall have made a court-ordered claim for money held in seven frozen bank accounts from Tate and his wife.
A lawyer for the police said the Taits were "serial tax evaders" and had paid no tax on £21m of income from their online businesses between 2014 and 2022.
At Westminster Magistrates' Court, Chief Justice Paul Goldspring ruled that the brothers' financial transactions, including transferring millions to Tate's wife's account, were a simple fraud.
Andrew Tate, a former kickboxer, had more than 10 million followers on the X social network.
He was banned from the TikTok, YouTube and Facebook platforms for publishing hate speech and misogynistic comments.
He and his brother Tristan Tate face criminal charges in Romania, including allegations of human trafficking.
They will be extradited to the UK when those proceedings are concluded to face further charges in Britain.
Tate and his brother have denied the allegations.
